I have an elderly neighbor who is a veteran. I often make gift baskets for presents, and this would be great to take to Sears to buy some “handyman” stuff for a basket for him………..as he is always “fixing” stuff for me, and sometimes I have to run to the hardware store to pick up something he need to do the repairs!

My husband works for the army and has spent about 5 out of 9 years of our marriage in overseas in Iraq or Kuwait- missing many of our children’s birthdays, our anniversaries, and holidays.

He is coming home from Kuwait in mid-September and I would love to have a big surprise for his birthday and our anniversary.
