Livestrg05 Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Hey all, I need to find some large plain white gift boxes. I bought a large white Jackie-O style coat at Old Navy on Black Friday, but since, I haven't been able to find a box large enough for it. All I've been able to find are the smaller rectangular blouse/shirt boxes... Does anyone know where I can find some? I had no luck at Target, they only have the smaller gift boxes. I was thinking maybe Michaels or the dollar store? Thanks for your help.
Hummin Bird Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 Try any of the craft stores. If you cant find one there I've purchased some from Sears and Macy's. You just goto the wrapping department and ask them to sell you the box. Sometimes they charge you a buck or 2, but sometimes they make you pay the whole price of wrapping (depending on the personw orking that day) so if you go that route I would take the coat with me just in case and if they want to charge you the whole price for wrapping just let them wrap it . But the boxes are plain white that they use so you should get what you want.
AndreaInNC Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 and think outside the box when you hit the craft store - go to the cake decorating aisle and get a box for a sheet cake!
afancyfeline4u Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 You could use any kind of box...it doesn't have to specifically be a gift box... Try a copier paper box and wrap the lid and bottom separate and wrap the coat in some decorated tissue to match.
AndreaInNC Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 or you could hit the liquor store for empty boxes. That might get someone all excited to see a big ole tequila box!!!
theboyzmom Posted December 9, 2009 Posted December 9, 2009 you need to look/ask for robe or coat boxes...you can find them :)
Livestrg05 Posted December 9, 2009 Author Posted December 9, 2009 Thanks everyone. I'm gonna try Wal Mart tonight and if not there, maybe the dollar store.
ShoppingChick13 Posted December 10, 2009 Posted December 10, 2009 I bought a few large boxes at a box store in my area. I needed boxes for my Angel tree gifts and I wanted them to be sturdy. I also haven't seen the larger boxes at the stores as much lately. The coat sounds cute!

They're $3.00 a piece, but seem to be just what I needed. Thanks everyone
