I was at the Dollar Tree the other day ( one of those everything is a buck stores), and saw that they had those neat red and white popcorn buckets.  They were made of plastic, so they are reusable. It seemed to me that they could easily hold one bag of popped microwave popcorn in them.  I thought…WOW, what a great gift idea.  Here is what you can do:

Get two of these popcorn buckets (place one inside the other), and two packages of the unpopped microwave popcorn. You will also want to include some movie theater sized boxes of candy ~ I personally like Raisnettes and popcorm mixed together! Next, go online to Netflix and get a gift certificate for a one month (or more, depending on your price range) membership to Netflix (you can print it right away ~ and even choose which occassion you are giving it for so that the certificate will have the look of that event!).  You may want to add something to the bottom of the bucket to make your items sit towards the top of the bucket ~ if you have a paper shredder, you can use that (be really creative and add red construction paper to the shredder for a more “festive” look! 

Once you have assembled your items, wrap it with transparent celophane wrap and a big bow.  If you can’t find those red and white striped popcorn buckets, just use a big plasic bowl ( if you are feeling artsy, get some markers or paint pens and write POPCORN on the side of the bowl).

This is a great gift idea for Christmas, Birthday, Valentine’s Day, and any gift giving occassion.
