BasketsGalore - St Patrick's Day Delivery Update

By
Customer Announcement – No Deliveries Within Ireland on 17th March
Just a quick reminder that unfortunately there will be no deliveries within Ireland and Northern Ireland on Monday 17th March 2014, due to the St Patrick’s Day holiday.
St Patrick’s Day is a national holiday in Ireland so all businesses and schools tend to be closed, including the courier company we use for our deliveries.
This means if you would like a gift basket to be delivered in time for St Patrick's Day you will need to order by 3 pm on Thursday 13th March (at the latest), so it will arrive on Friday 14th March. There are no weekend deliveries available either. Any orders placed on Friday 13th will be scheduled for delivery on Tuesday 18th, providing they have non-perishable contents. Any baskets ordered containing perishable items (such as fruit & salmon) cannot be dispatched until Tuesday 18th, for Wednesday 19th arrival. We will endeavour to email any customers who place perishable orders during this time to explain this also.
Any orders placed over the weekend & on Monday 17th March, for delivery in Ireland or to BT postcodes, will be dispatched on Tuesday 18th March for next day arrival.
As always you can track the deliver progress of your gift basket via your BasketsGalore account at any time of the day. If you notice that the recipient was not at home when the delivery was attempted then the courier driver will have left them a calling card letting them know he/she has a delivery for them. It will contain local contact details so the recipient can ring & request it to be redelivered on a date of their choice, or the next available date. As part of the BasketsGalore service we monitor all deliveries too, as well as providing customers with tracking codes. This means we can step in to help in the event of any problems noticed by ourselves or you.
Thank you for your understanding & we’ll also post information on the Easter delivery schedule in the next few weeks.

Christmas Hampers Ireland 2019

By
Christmas Shopping Begins This is our 16th year of packing Christmas Hampers, the 8th Christmas in our current facility. Our hampers are distinctive because we work ever so hard throughout the year to investigate new concepts and introduce new combinations. It is our mission to extract value through efficiencies of scale and operation, so that our customers are delighted with their Gift Hampers and Baskets. This invariably attracts the attention of those who understand the difficulty of packing and producing hampers and ask us to apply our gift packing skills. October and early November are extremely busy months for us as we contract pack other organisation’s Christmas hampers so they can appear in their shops. But from this moment on, we get to test the desirability of our gift creations which we developed in March. Christmas Hamper Offers For 2019 we have more than 200 Christmas Hampers available for purchase as a gift, but truth be told, ther...

Flowers For Mum Gifts

By
Our most popular Gift Basket For Mum of all time has to be 'Mother's Day Flowers & Treats'. This is actually kind of amusing as it is somewhat against our original aim to be the "alternative to flowers". Instead of ignoring flowers completely, as let's face it they are still an extremely popular choice of gift, we decided to embrace them in a different manner. Rather than trying to compete with local florists who will always be able to present a more attractive bouquet than one having to travel through a delivery network, we came up with the idea of a flowering PLANT. This attractive floral plant could then accompany a smaller basket of treats to provide the end receiver the best of both worlds. Historically the 'Mother's Day Flowers & Treats' gift was pitched at a discounted, popular price point and it would be updated slightly each year for repeat Customers. The focus of the basket was on food and this was accompanied by a pretty fl...
