I'm glad that I found your video because I'm planning to start a little side business making gift baskets. This gave me good tips, thank you.

[@anthonycooper2677]

+ I been making gift baskets since 1994 and you are absolutely correct. +

[@lorettamobley6649]

Thanks Sis for the awesome wisdom you shared, I never consider the math of my time, travel and labor. You ROCK!!😇

[@veronicamorris9417]

Thank You so much for explaining the price points. I struggle with prices and much like you like to use higher end items.

[@kayr2918]

R u going to be doing Mother's Day and Father's Day Baskets? I would love to know more about how to do the Pop-up Shops... I just started selling baskets this Year Valentines was my first Holiday, I sold out on the streets in my city.

[@kimberlyjaxson3478]

I love that you are not afraid to charge your true worth. I have to get better with this. I almost never add in my time when I price my baskets. Thank you for sharing your expertise!

[@liliknowsbest2.037]

Same

[@tamekiathecouponingcamperl5084]

I have that problem too.

[@missymcmahon1879]

not alone it is impossible to charge for the time we make and put in it woulc cost 130.00 a day to work on things i make. but people wont pay for the time..

[@manasesli]

How did you get for example the kids basket all of that for under $6 including the plushie etc. I looked online and cheapest nice plushie i could find is like $5-7 alome plus everything else and materials

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

Hey this video is older and items like cellophane and even ribbon have gone up a lot since but I find most of my items on clearance , if you plan far enough ahead or order in bulk you can get items for cheap, the plushies I paid for a slight smaller version this year for about $3 from alibaba not as good as last year though . But I bought a bunch of squishamallows on clearance at Walgreens for a little over $1

[@terryjbrown6953]

I'm a new subscriber will you be showing how you make your baskets on this channel? If you do I would love to see how you made that bouquet box with the teddy bear and candy!

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

Hello and welcome! I am getting back into videos this weekend I hope I have time before Mother’s Day to get to the teddy bear bouquet!

[@deefeliz4610]

30 is very reasonable for a Hello Kitty Basket

[@shays_creations]

I am weary of pricing but I am going to keep that pricing in mind. I think you use a warehouse. I have three I am using as well. Your details are nice. I also plan to use gift cards from surveys.

Hi very informative video I’m a new subscriber and also new at gift basket.Thanks for sharing.Can you please do a video of how you make the candy bouquet in the box .

[@LaTeisha37]

Love these baskets!! I never thought of selling a basket for $250. That’s awesome girl!! Can you let me know where you got your baskets and the boxes for your candy bouquets?

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

Baskets I bought from Joann’s on sale they are about $5 , the plastic ones dollar tree and the boxes for the candy bouquets I ordered off Etsy ☺️

[@keishagreen940]

I am GLAD you know your WORTH! You go girl, you use high end items, which I LOVE! And you are ABSOLUTELY right, people's taste levels are different and they will pay what you are asking for. Especially MEN! Most men HATE to shop, but they LOVE to spend money. If it's their Mom, or significant other, and they are my BEST customers!!! You should change your media name to The Frugal BOSS! Because you are DEFINATELY one, BLESSINGS!!! And thank you for sharing you knowledge with US!

[@PNAMIRACLES]

Yess !! men will purchase a lot quicker whereas women will ask a lot of questions, try to negotiate and think before purchasing

[@shaundralawson]

Hello Glad I found your channel..I did Mother’s Day baskets for 2022..Starting a business…I found out people will talk you down..And have money in there pockets..I will stick to my price this year coming in..Thanks for helping me

[@capricorndiva6310]

Bath and body works and victoria secret is pricey high end basket. That pail in your hello kitty basket i would have inexpensive basket out of it. You had some great points about dt stuff n reselling them at higher price is rip-off.

[@hrae610]

Hi Love your Baskets! Can you tell me where I can find the bouquet boxes, I would greatly appreciate it, because I make my basket by myself, and all that wrapping can be too much at times. Thanks

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

Hey! Thank you 😊 and Etsy has them available here www.etsy.com/listing/803447920/ or you can search rise bakery boxes on TEMU and they’re a little bit cheaper !

[@liamonae4965]

Hi! I hope you don’t mind but I have a question about how you sell them. Do you just make, like, one at a time and sell that? Do you buy things in bulk and make a bunch of baskets and sell those? Are they custom? I’ve been struggling in this aspect. Thank you!

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

I make baskets according to what I buy and sell them. But when buying items I keep in mind what is popular , what’s a good deal, what else I can pair it with. I do take a glee custom orders for Easter and by request but largely I just make them and market them. Hope this helps 😊

[@liamonae4965]

@@thefrugalentrepreneur92 Thank you! It does.

[@robinceasar6817]

Hello I price my baskets according to my time as well. However, I live in Orlando, Fl. And then people do not want to buy the baskets. They saying cost too much!!! What can I do? 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

You are so correct even my manager back when I had one said the price is the price and people would either pants and complain or they would leave it and still complain😅 so blessings to you in the New Year by the Lord Jesus❤😊 the baskets are cute

Thank you for that great information. I have been asking about gift basket pricing for a while. Very informative. Thank you❤️

[@nickyhiggs2283]

Thanks for sharing how you price, I don’t want to use $ store products mainly either, I don’t find quality items in my area at the $ store; I was struggling with what to charge as a person just starting out doing this🤑🤑

[@latoyasmith7093]

Thank you so much for this very informative information ❤️ I’m glad I found your channel

[@danaburton83]

Wonderful information. I wished I had seen your video last year when I started making baskets and bouquets for Valentine's. I was way under in pricing my candy bouquets which I use full size candy bars and teddy bears. I also under sold a custom basket too because I didn't know how to price. I couldn't make them this year due to I was sick; but next year I will be on it.

[@velvetpetalsvp]

I love your whole reasoning behind it. Good for you 🩷❤

[@deefeliz4610]

Amazing how one item was a hundred, & went down 9.99. did you get the Victory Secret products on also ? Beautiful baskets

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

This year because shipments were so slow I was able to get a lot of good stuff that is normally gone by 90% because it didn’t come in until after Christmas

[@dominiquelarue1982]

Thanks a million for this video❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@straighttothemusic]

So question & maybe you can help me? So I’m making baskets for Vday as well and ive spent out about $20-$25 per basket what should I charge? The stuff is homemade etc…

[@straighttothemusic]

But it’s not as many items as in your basket.

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

It’s hard to say because I can’t see th me basket but charge at least 2.5 times what it cost. Presentation is everything so make sure your items are elevated for people to see and any gaps fill with filler paper , or tissue paper etc. hope this helps!

[@MarieAllen-qj1qq]

This is great information thank you so much for your help I started making baskets and always struggle with the price. Where did you get that large wrap and is it shrink wrap?

[@thefrugalentrepreneur92]

Hey ! I ordered it from Nashville wraps and it’s on a roll but not shrink wrap I believe it’s the 40” wide one
