Package "Wish List" Ideas
Honestly, anything you send will MAKE my day. I love getting mail! But, here are some ideas for items that are especially fantastic:
- cool pencils!!! I bribe kids to study by promising pencils for good test results
- Pictures (you, America, family, ones from my collection to give away)
- Magazines (just not financial ones)
- Gatarode's propel berry water powder (or other flavors), 'greens to go' (costco)
- Raisins
- Seasonings: McCormick Mild Taco Seasoning, basil, cumin
- Maple Syrup, or extract
- bbq sauce (sweet/dark variety)
- Peanut Butter & Co Mighty Maple....someone just got this and it's delicious
- granola, especially the 'BareNaked' that comes in the ziplock
- granola bars, health bars, anything like that, love the Kellogg's Fiber+ ones
- Chocolate/sweets (especially peanut butter and plain m&ms, hershey’s bars and kisses, reisen)
- Sauce packets, potato flakes, gravy, any add hot water sauces/meals...
- Protein: Tuna packets, shredded chicken (apparently this comes in packets now too)
