wine gift bags email this discussion to a friend?

myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)1 year ago

When you give someone in your family or friends a gift of wine in a fancy gift bag do you write on the tag that is on the bag or do you keep it blank so they can then use the same bag when they give the gift of a bottle of wine?.

*smiles* I always write on the tag! If I receive one I cut the tag off and save the bag though! If I'm then using the bag for someone else, I'll make a tag that sort of matches. Skinflint that I am! lol


myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)  1 year ago

Me and my parents have around five bags that get exchanged between us. At the moment they have all the bags and i even had to buy one for mothers day. Seems to be a one sided affair at the moment, unless they are trying to tell me something lol.


myLot reputation of 97/100. feralwoman (1296)  1 year ago

Perhaps they are! lol. My father in law saves unfranked stamps on envelopes we've sent to him and sends them back to us in his next letter! Sort of similar isn't it!


myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)  1 year ago

I just write my name on the front of envelopes and the recipients as the sender, then i write not at this address across the front and put it back in the mail box.


myLot reputation of 97/100. feralwoman (1296)  1 year ago

Now that's really cheap! lol


myLot reputation of 78/100. whiteheather39 (10042)  1 year ago

The envelope deal is ingenious I would never have thought of that.


myLot reputation of 97/100. feralwoman (1296)  1 year ago

I'd never have thought of that either Whiteheather! What a brilliant idea, but strangely twisted! lol


myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)  1 year ago

Twisted, give us a break. A penny saved is a peny earnt, pmsl.


myLot reputation of 97/100. feralwoman (1296)  1 year ago

LOL perhaps you do need those incontinence pants after all!


myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)  1 year ago

I could put them on my head to catch to rubbish that comes out of my mouth lol.

We always do write on the tag.
We only give plonk to my sister in law these days .
She is quite well off and probably just bins the bag but at least there is the small chance she may reuse it.
She can always tie a different tag to it after all.
We used to give a bottle of Whisky to my father in law at christmas and he would definitely have reused to bag and probably would have left the old already written on tag on it LOL.


myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)  1 year ago

He could reuse the bag when giving you a gift and that way you could refill it with whisky and give it back to him and then you get to save on ink see.

Last time I bought gift bags, I used the tags. I bought a load for Christmas gifts, some of the bags were quite large so I could fit lots of smaller gifts inside.


myLot reputation of 90/100. spasticseagull (1590)  1 year ago

If it was any other gift then I would write on the tags but with the wine bags, me and my parents have a system worked out and that way we do not have to buy several bags a year each.

It probably wouldn't matter either way, as the gift tag can be taken off, if the recipients want to reuse the bag.
We reuse gift bags sometimes, or the kids save them for their making box.

LOL!

I think I'm even tighter than that! I don't buy a bag to start with!

I do re use the ones given to me though! I just take the tags off if they have been written on!

I always like to get a separate card for any occasion anyway and put that with the gift. So I leave the tag that comes with the gift bags blank. They're nice to be reused anyway, the bags, even if you write on the tag. It seems like most people give separate gift cards.

 
7. myLot reputation of 93/100. gabs8513 (17417)   1 year ago

Lol I write on the Tag that is what it is there for
I think it would be a bit tight if they gave the bag to someone else I always keep them as they are special to me
I know a bit Soppy lol but thats me

 
8. myLot reputation of 78/100. whiteheather39 (10042)   1 year ago

I write my name on it. I want to make sure they know who gave it to them.

 
9. myLot reputation of 85/100. Modestah (7413)   1 year ago

I usually write on the tag, when I receive a gift without writing in the card or on the tag it seems incomplete. I do as your first responder however, and cut the tag off of the gift bags and reuse them. I also remove the labels from large padded envelopes and reuse them too!your post made me think of a joke."Is it Scotch?"On the first day of school, the children brought gifts for their teacher.
The florist's son brought the teacher a bouquet of flowers.
The candy-store owner's daughter gave the teacher a pretty box of candy.
Then the liqu@r-store owner's son brought up a big, heavy box. The teacher lifted it up and noticed that it was leaking a little bit. She touched a drop of the liquid with her finger and tasted it.
"Is it wine?" she guessed.
"No," the boy replied.
She tasted another drop and asked, " Champagne?.

"No," said the little boy............ "It's a puppy!"*snicker*

Excellant, A little humour is always welcome and a gift in itself for me.

 
10. myLot reputation of 91/100. 4cuteboys (2899)   1 year ago

We've given wine a a gift quite a few times, and I always leave the tag blank so they can reuse the bag for someone else's gift. I figure why not! If for some reason I did write on the tag, they could always rip off the tag, i'm sure no one would miss the tag. But I can't remember ever writing on the tags that come with those bags.
