  3 0 Smoked salmon. Whenever I travel, I always bring some smoked salmon as a thank you gift to people who are hosting me in another city. It's always a winner. You can get one of those nice alder wood gift boxes of smoked salmon for about $25 and ship it US mail for around $5 to anywhere in the USA. It's distinctly Seattle, and it's always appreciated. Most of the online stores sell them for $30 to $35 (Amazon, Madeinwashington.com, etc) but I see them all the time at Fred Meyer for $19.99 or so. soundslikepuget answered in Whatever 7 months ago | Report 1 comment by NWNative… 0 0 I love the idea of sending something unique from our area-or from any home town. Not that you can't get smoked salmon outside of the PNW, but we have some great sources.

  2 0 What about local chocolates? You could send out a selection of Fran's chocolates or something from Theo's. The Chocolate Box on Pine St: http://www.sschocolatebox.com/ Has a great selection of local chocolates in bar and truffle form. A bottle of nice prosecco also makes a lovely gift. You can find good bottles for less than $15 at places like Trader Joes and even Whole Foods.

My office used to exchange holiday gifts with the other offices in our company. My boss would buy an assortment of Dilettante Chocolates, Chukar cherries, Frangos. It was a really nice way to send something that pleases everyone but that isn't as generic or overpriced as a fruit basket. The other offices would send cans of assorted popcorn. keshmeshi commented 7 months ago | Report 0 0 I third this. My Dad used to do gift-wrapped boxes of Frangos for his people at Boeing. Other locally-made candies include Aplets and Cotlets, tins of Almond/Cashew Roca, and salted caramels from Fran's. Include an artsy thank you card with some local imagery on it (Mt. Rainier, Space Needle, ferry, etc.). Sacrelicious commented 6 months ago | Report 0 0 Frangos were always a great sign of SEATTLE! My great-aunt looked forward to receiving her trio of Frango boxes every Christmas.

  1 0 Go with the salmon! People love it and the boxes are reusable when I was living on the east coast and came back for holidays people would beg me to bring fish and crab back. Half my bag would be for fishy goodness sublevelthree answered in Whatever 7 months ago | Report Comment on this answer Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.
