All wrapped up for Air Ambulance.......

Gift Wrapping for County Air Ambulance Trust
www.webury.com
offers a gift wrapping service at £3.50 with £2.50 being donated to The County Air Ambulance Trust, (Registered charity number 1057063.):A
They state……………….
“Wrapped in a quality paper with the option of a handwritten tag - simply select the option in the shopping cart.”

They sell Driza-Bone oilskin coats, Aigle wellies, those traditional wooden board games etc., so not the easiest things to get wrapped, and if like me, you are rubbish at it, worth it too!!:o

    Hello Antispam
    I am sorry you feel that way – If you had taken the trouble, as I have, to check, you would find these charges (listed below) are standard, and none of these offers any charitable donation as far as I can tell, and rarely a hand written message.
    I do work for the company, but I did check that this was acceptable to post by reading all the rules and looking at other posts. If you feel it is not, please do let me know.

    Taken randomly from Google today;

    - Gadgetsuk gift wrapping service - £3.95


    - offer a giftwrapping service on our website. We charge £3.50 for it
    businessforum

    - The charge for gift wrapping is £3 per parcel whatever the value of your order
    Sportsshoes

    - Eligible items can be giftwrapped for as little as £2.98

    Thanks well it may well be there normal charge but some companies do this for free this time of year granted maybe not as nice as they do, but who can afford £3.50 gift wraps perhaps the wealthy and the fool hardly can

    Fortunately it is not compulsary, and it is in a good cause after all!
