Food For Thought, Something To Savor

For the coffee drinker on your list, The Bean is selling gift combos with T-shirts and mugs. Can’t remember if they like their coffee cream -no-sugar or skinny-latte? There’s always a Bean gift certificate.

The porch of the Bean, gussied up for the holidays.

That certificate option is available at a number of other places in town. Paul at Village Hardware says you can get a gift certificate there. Ditto, says Jimmy at the Provision Company.

The Village Food Emporium is selling all sorts of delicacies, and Bama also has gift certificates (great for when you’re not quite sure which Artisinal cheese to give.) Over at The Silos, Keri and Doug DeLisle have $25 gift certificates — and are charging just $20 for them in the month of December.

Gift Certificates For Every Occasion, Even Ones You Haven’t Thought Of

If you have friends or family planning a visit here, River Neuse Suites has rooms and Jackie Wall at the front desk says they have certificates to cover all or even just part of the stay. If you want to give a relaxing B&B stay, Durl and Debbie Evans at the Cartwright House have gift certificates, too.

Body Balance Studios has lots of yoga-related items for sale, and Susan Koepp is selling coupons good for private sessions and merchandise. Brenna Wilcox at Oriental Healing Arts is offering gift certificates for massages and Reiki and all kinds of energy work.

Check out the salons, too. Georgie’s and Village Spa and Salon will let you buy a friend a haircut or salon session.

Buying boat bits for someone else’s boat can be daunting. Enter, the gift certificates that are advertized on a sign at Marine Consignment of Oriental. (They’re also selling Betty Brown calendars.)

Many businesses, even ones you might not expect, will sell a gift certificate. For instance: Deaton’s Yacht Service. (Think of that as helping a friend with their boat work without breathing in the dust…) And Elizabeth Cordes says Oriental Dental can arrange a gift certificate, too. (The dental floss bow is optional…)
