Chocolate Bars in a Jar!
I think people often overthink gift giving. What to get? How much to spend? Will they like it? Oh, let’s just get them a gift card. Gift cards are great, too, but we’ve got a great gift jar idea that is fun, personal, and perfect for any gift-giving occasion. Chocolate Bars in a Jar.
You can never go wrong with premium chocolate from DOVE®. For this gift idea, we made a 5-minute trip to Walgreens. That’s one of the best things about shopping at Walgreens. You can get in and out in a few minutes, and they have the best chocolate selection, unique gifts, gift cards, and more—all in one spot.
