3 easy steps to sweeten someone's Valentine's Day
Creative gift solutions offer a simple way to show you care
(BPT) - Nearly everyone has more
than one special person in their life.
Whether it's a neighbor who lets the
dog out, the friend who watches the
kids in a pinch or a colleague who
makes Mondays a little more
bearable, loved ones make our days
better. A simple thank you or a small
thank you gift can go a long way in
showing those people just how much
you appreciate them.
A recent survey revealed that most
people do have multiple "loves" in
their lives. In fact, significant others
aren't the only ones who get
Valentine's Day gifts these days. This
survey, which was commissioned by
Rich Products, a leading provider to
foodservice, in-store bakery and
retail marketplaces, showed that
Valentine's Day now extends way
beyond that one special person. Forty
four percent of people said that they
purchase gifts for multiple people on
Valentine's Day. When asked to
identify their "other loves," friends
were at the top of the list; and
surprisingly, among their favorite
gifts were fresh baked goods ranging
from cookies, cupcakes and other
sweet treats. So to sweeten your relationships all

year round, small thank you gifts are
both welcomed and appreciated. And
keep in mind it's not the size of the
gift that matters. Survey results show
that good things come in small,
personalized packages.Give the gift of deliciousnessTo get started, remember showing
