Happy Anniversary! You didn't say how old you two are, but I suspect that you're still in your teens. So what do teens like?
Salt, sugar, and fat! Here are some ideas:
1. Chips and salsa or dip
2. Popcorn that you pop in the microwave
3. Beef Jerkey, or if you have the dough, buy some salami and
cheese
4. Candy: Reeses' cups, sourpatch kids, hershey bars, laffytaffy
Dots, Malted Milk Balls, Raisinettes (you can often
get 2 for the price of one)
5. Your favorite soft drink or sparkling cider
6. A gift book you make yourself with coupons he can redeem
when he wants, such as "Good for one free kiss" or "Good for
one free back rub". Use your imagination and have fun!
7. Have someone take a couple of polaroids of you and buy an
inexpensive frame for them. They make a nice addition!
Have fun!
bags of microwave popcorn or just pop some up yourself and put in a bag, hot tamales, junior mints, a 2 liter of pop or a couple smaller bottles, napkins :) , some DVD's from the WalMart 4.99 bin , they have some great titles.
You can actually go nuts making these baskets, the possibilities are endless. Just remember buy the time you buy a lot of this stuff you could have bought a video game! :)
popcorn, soda, chips (like nachos), cheese dip, mini soft pretzel bites (microwaveable ones), candy in boxes like theaters do, any other foods he likes. also, put one or two of his favorite movies or a video store//movie theater gift certificate.
just put any food that you would get at a movie. they even sell toppings for your popcorn in different flavors, like nacho cheese and a bunch of others. then you sprinkle it on top. thats at this store called "le gourmet chef". it might be at your local mall, its at some around me. also, instead of a plain, boring basket, put it in a container that looks like a popcorn container, just made out of hard plastics instead. make his card look like movie tickets.
You should go to Blockbuster or whatever and get those movie theatre popcorn tubs. Then get a different kind of candy box for everyone that comes to the party so they are kind of personalized and put a drink in it. It's fun and guaranteed that everyone will enjoy it!
Popcorn definetly, skittles, junior mints, sour patch kids, anything that you can buy at the theater. Make sure you have some soda or water to wash down that popcorn, maybe put a few movies that you two like in there, you may even want to put in pj's, slippers and a blanket for cuddling.
I would get a gift card to a movie rental place like blockbuster that would pay for a couple of movie rentals. Then add in a couple kinds of candy you know he likes .....like junior mints or snow caps or something like that, and get the box sizes like they sell at the movies. You have to include some popcorn, and a bottle of soda for the two fo you to share. Then you can add some napkins to the basket, and a candle that you can light when the two of you are watching the movie.
Have fun, that's a great idea!!!
This is a really good idea, but making baskets can end up being a little pricey...include popcorn (microwave), twizzlers, milk duds, etc...
Kraft macaroni and cheese, the blue box blue.
Blockbuster (or your local movie rental place) gift certificate, licorice, chex mix, cracker jack, gum, M&M's, skittles, soda, cookies, snack mix, popcorn, and more candy
popcorn, milkduds, red vines, soda, kleenex for sad movies
My boyfriend's mom makes us a "movie date night basket" every year for Christmas. She gets a couple of DVDs that she knows we would like ( this year it was both the Pirates of the Caribbean...) to that she adds a couple of bags of popcorn, mini coffee bags ( we both love coffee), a can of mixed nuts, pringles, chex party mix, a couple of jumbo candy bars, some of the movie candy they sell at Wal-Mart like the junior mints, sugar babies, etc.....It's the best gift we get every year!!
Of course the movie
Popcorn
Licorice
Milk Duds
gummy bears
candles- holders
Great idea, Love it.
