Sometimes it is hard to know what to say to someone who has experienced an accident, illness, or loss. A sympathy gift basket can let them know that you care, even when you can't find the words.
Many times, a gourmet or fruit sympathy gift basket will be greatly appreciated. During difficult times, cooking is often one of the household tasks that is neglected and your gift of ready made or easy to prepare food items will be a great help. When choosing a sympathy gift basket, take into account the circumstances. Try to avoid selections containing alcohol. Also try to avoid gift baskets with items that require a great deal of care or preparation.
Some sympathy gift baskets come with flowers. This can be a nice choice for someone who has suffered an illness or accident and is recovering, but keep in mind that families who have suffered a loss will most likely be bombarded with flowers and may appreciate a basket without. If you can't be with the family, many online retailers can deliver sympathy gift baskets to most locations. this can be a nice way of showing that your thoughts are with the recipients even if you can't be there in person.
Sympathy gift baskets start at around $40 to around $120 or more. For acquaintances or coworkers, you may wish to either purchase a group gift or else a smaller item, depending on the closeness your relationship to the person and their family. For less expensive options, consider a regular fruit basket or possibly a basket of cookies or other baked goods. During difficult times, any gesture is appreciated.
While a sympathy gift basket can't alleviate a loss or tragedy, knowing that friends and family care and are supportive can help a great deal. Showing that you are there and available will be appreciated long after the gift basket is empty.
