CaseCruzer – Tips for under the tree – and over the top – Holiday gifts

11-15-2010

For those who celebrate Christmas, seeing beautifully wrapped presents under a decorated evergreen tree is always a sight to behold.  But there are times when a well-intended gift doesn’t quite lift the spirits.  Such as…?

Your favorite wine connoisseur, collector or enthusiast opens his or her gift and discovers a bottle of fine wine.  So what’s the problem?   Not the wine itself but the deferred-gratification nature of the gift:  where’s the magic?

Stars begin to twinkle when you excuse yourself and then return wheeling in the gift that was a tad too big (or obvious) to fit under the tree – a pressure and temperature controlled indestructible WineCruzer carrying case.  No Styrofoam or cardboard nonsense for your favorite aficionado.  And the beauty is you can choose from a wheeled line of wine carriers that safely transports four to 24 bottles of wine and comes with a lifetime guarantee.  The gift that keeps giving!

Okay, but we still have that somewhat stingy deferred-gratification issue hanging in the air with the mistletoe.  And even after you announce that the carrying case with the closed cell foam interior complies with all Transportation Security Administration (TSA) transport and shipping regulations that pertain to alcohol…something is still missing.

Have you guessed what?   A pair of airline tickets to a tropical vacation spot.  Now your beloved Grinch is in the spirit to celebrate.     

Under the tree?  Yes.  And over the top.
