The Low-Stress Holiday Gift Guide

Dec03

You wanted to hit the stores on Gray Thursday, Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, Cyber Monday and Giving Tuesday but a “je ne sais quoi” simply does not inspire. Maybe last-minute shopping is part of your shopping strategy. Or you’re an, “I don’t need no stinkin’ special day to shop” shopper.  Well, we’re here to help.  At the Food Bank, we’ve been working diligently with the businesses you love to bring meaningful shopping experiences that you can enjoy any day of the week.  When you purchase an item from one of these stores, you’ll provide much-needed, healthy food to your community. That’s double the gift-giving good feelings for the price of one!

Don we now our hunger-fighting apparel (and accessories) with TOMS for Target

As a partner with Feeding America, half of the proceeds raised in Central Texas through TOMS for Target will go to the Capital Area Food Bank.  Items include a ladies denim shirt, boy’s logo tee, reusable tote bag and many more.

Need five golden rings in time for Christmas? Charming Charlie has you covered.

Each Wednesday in December, leading up to Christmas, Charming Charlie at the Domain in Austin will donate 10 percent of its proceeds on sales to the Food Bank. And yes, you can find many gift items beyond rings.

Sleep in heavenly peace – or something close to it – with  Factory Mattress.

Save an additional 10 percent off the sale price at Factory Mattress when you donate healthy, non-perishable food to the Food Bank. Rest easy, because you’re helping us end hunger.

Raise a glass of good cheer with Full Sail Brewing Company.

For every case of Full Sail product sold at H-E-B, Full Sail Brewing Company will donate $1 to your local Food Bank.

When you’ve had your fill of figgy pudding, Oatmega bars and cookies will hit the spot.

For every case of Oatmega product sold, the company will donate a bar to the Food Bank. This tasty treat is also all-natural, non-GMO, gluten-free, soy-free, egg-free and uses premium and sustainable sources of grass-fed whey protein and Omega-3s.

For the gifts you can only get online, start with a click that gives meals.

With Give as you Get and Amazon Smile, you can shop at your favorite online retailers and a percentage of the proceeds will go to the Food Bank. For your convenience, you can continue to use your established shopping carts on these popular e-shopping sites. That ugly Christmas sweater you always wanted seems a little less ugly and indulgent now, doesn’t it?
