  1. I keep trying to purchase these Post Surgery Gift Tags, but every single time I add them to my cart for purchase and then advance to my cart they disappear from my cart. I’ve tried to find something similar on other websites because this website is not working, but I can’t seem to find what I’m looking for anywhere else.Why won’t this work and how do I get these printable??

  2. I love these thoughtful ideas! The cute labels really take it to another level. Thanks for sharing!

  3. I ordered the sunshine packet last May and never received it. Paid for it, I even sent 2 different emails with no responses . You have fabulous ideas, but it left a very bad taste in my mouth. I had purchased it for Teacher Appreciation and never received. I need to actually take the time and call my bank for my 3.95 to be refunded.

  4. My friends gave me a similar basket after my hysterectomy, and it was so appreciated! They also included a little pill dispenser and water bottle for my pain meds. It was so handy having everything I needed in one basket! I love that yours comes with cute tags!

  5. Thanks for the great ideas! I’ve put together a number of care packages in the past and it’s so great to have some fresh ideas of what to include!

  6. What cute ideas you have here! And very thoughtful, too. I bet anyone would love to get one of these special care packages!

  7. My wonderful mother in law is going through treatment right now. This gives me many great ideas! Thank you!

  8. What a wonderful service you are providing. It makes me happy you are using this stuff to make it fun!

  9. I love the tags that go along with the items! I make care bags for those going through cancer treatments or dialysis, and this would be a great way to add a little laugh too. Thanks for sharing!

  10. Would have enjoyed reading this but it was covered with offers that couldn’t be read, accepted OT turned ogg. Total waste of a website that looked goid.
