Seeing Amazon mentioned reminded me. Amazon has a Gourmet Food section where you can sort gifts by price. I checked out the 70% off and 50% off. I don't look at anything else in that section. There's several non-perishable products in there that would be suitable for making up gift baskets, like nice teas and sauces. You could fill them out with cheaper stuff and add a few very nice gourmet items.
For example, Torani Butterscotch Syrup is $6.99 on sale. Full price is $79.40!! 91% discount. It's an Italian Syrup 750ml (25.4oz)bottle and also comes in Butter Rum, Butter Pecan and Orgeat (Almond). It says it's delicious in cappuccino, caffe latte, steamed milk, and iced coffee. You could match that with a few cheap coffee mugs and coffee for a nice basket. :)

That is very good to know! I'm a sucker for nice gourmet treats in pretty boxes and bottles. Usually I look in TJMaxx or Target for them. Those can be so cluttered though it's hard to see what's there. Thank you Jewel! :)

The Omaha Steaks Roast Chicken Rendezvous is making my mouth water. I wouldn't have paid $66 but $19.99 for a 4 person meal is reasonable.
Product Description
Make tonight's dinner the perfect rendezvous! Tender, moist, fully cooked Roast Chicken Breasts make a tempting and convenient entree. Served with a gourmet side of Broccoli and Cauliflower, splashed with Roasted Garlic Oil, and Roasted Garlic Mashed Potatoes, this dinner is both easy and delicious. Meal serves 4.

Don't buy proper food when you can get chocolate, Kay! LOL. This is a ridiculous price even at half price ($32.29) but if you need a very special gift, it would impress. :)

I wouldn't thank you for a box of liqueurs. I had a very awkward moment when I took a box as a gift to a dinner party and found out later the host was a reformed alcoholic. I wondered why his wife had a strange look when I handed them over. I didn't know!

There's no way you could have anticipated that, Jewel. I wouldn't have known something like liqueurs would be considered a no-no.
Speaking of drinks, there's Celestial Seasonings tea reduced in the 70% off. Cinnamon Apple Tea and Raspberry Gardens Green Tea are down to just over $3 from $22.

Remember the Mexican hot chocolate sample from Nestle called Abuelita? There were free samples a while ago that ran out. I saw that at 60% off. 19oz size is normally $9.95 and is down to $3.95. Good to remember if anybody likes it when they get their sample in. :)
