The Dilemma: You’re invited to a housewarming party. It happens to be your manager’s new 6500 square foot mini-mansion on 3 acres of land. But, what does one buy for the person that you’ve never visited and appears to have it all? Without showing up empty handed, is a fresh fruit bouquet socially acceptable or even appropriate?
These five points illustrate why the fresh fruit bouquet is a good housewarming gift:
- Accepted
At one time in American history, the upside down pineapple cake, coffee cake and pie were acceptable housewarming gift ideas. If cakes were okay then, then a fresh fruit bouquet is completely acceptable by today’s standards. There’s nothing wrong with giving a fruit bouquet. This traditional housewarming gift idea is timeless in that it never goes out of style and is definitely a tasteful gift (pun not intended)
If your manager happens to be an oenophile, add a really good bottle of wine. Select a vintage from an “excellent” grape-producing year, based on the recipient’s favorite wine region.
- Worry-free.
Why fret over which silver platter, kitchen mitts, or remote control caddy to buy, when a fresh fruit bouquet convey the thought behind the housewarming concept: congratulations.
Which would you prefer to give a:
a) Housewarming gift that the recipient deems as indelibly hideous
b) A non-descript, traditional housewarming gift
Hopefully, the latter is preferred. Unpleasant nicknames and labels follow poor gift giving habits .
- No gifting remorse.
When in doubt of someone’s home design élan, opt for a fresh fruit bouquet. If the recipient loves exotic fruit, research which fruit bouquet company sells uber fresh fruit baskets.
- Affordable.
The average price of a fresh fruit bouquet is approximately $50. A fruit bouquet also happens to be the type of gift that does not make one appear as a tightwad.
- Ambiguous
There’s an ambiguity in bearing a fresh fruit bouquet. When one arrives at a housewarming party with a fruit bouquet, the recipient does not know if the gift is for the celebration at hand or personal use. This type of ambiguous present tends to deter gift dissatisfaction.
