My favorite wedding gift to give is something expensive (that I got for pennies on the dollar, ideally) that would be fun to have but I figure people might not buy themselves. I think these crystal champagne glasses fit the bill; they’re just $9.99 for a set of 4 (down from $80!), and really, who buys themselves champagne glasses?
(Okay, I’m sure someone does, but nobody that I know. And anyway, we’re talking weddings, here. Weddings! Champagne! Champagne flutes!)
Plus, these are sort of funky and fun. The description says, “Tasting lip enhances the wine appreciation,” but I say, “Heehee, they said ‘tasting lip!’”
It’s possible that I need to shut up and go to sleep, now.

Uh, Mir? Where’s the link? Please don’t contribute to that old stereotype that just because you’re so pretty you have to be absent-minded as well.

I’m a long time lurker and just wanted to let you know that I bought 2 sets of these! I’m going to 2 weddings this summer and for $25 I got both sets (plus, free shipping!). Such a great deal!

Mir, is this a hint for your own wedding?

Shoot! I wanted to get the chardonnay wine glasses for $14.95, but they don’t qualify for free shipping. Now I have to decide - 8 champagne glasses for $25, or 8 chardonnay glasses for almost $40.

I just went back and bought the chardonnay glasses also, and they did quality for free shipping. I got them here:

I just signed up for the free trial of Amazon prime, so maybe that’s why.
