Packaging of Treats

Now is the time to start saving the coffee containers (and air them out), pringle cans, oatmeal containers, empty boxes from wax paper and such.  Also the smaller cardboard boxes where you can cut the middle of the top out and put plastic and then line the box with tissue paper (so you can see thru it.).  You can cut the box top out using a scallop edge.

Also watch like at Dollar General and when they have the summer items on sale like trays or bowls grab some to put treats on and then they can be used again for outdoor picnics or such.  On not on sale they are a good price.  The colored baskets would be nice and could be used for silverware later on.  Of course, Dollar Tree always has baskets and such too.

Not packaging but an ideal for a gift.
If you have somebody who has alot of parties or outside meals maybe get some vinyl tablecloths when they go on sale at the end of summer and throw in some plastic silverware, maybe some plastic cups and those plastic ice cubes.  All could fit in a bowl, pitcher or on a tray.
