The time has just flown!<br><br><br>About 5 years and 4 months ago I started looking for a way to make a little extra spending money from "home" or during my free time while minding our church book shop.<br><br><br>I turned to the internet since it seemed like a possible solution. Ugh! What a lot of rubbish I had to wade through with all the "make money online" stuff out there. <br><br><br>I finally ran across this business building program called <a href="http://sbi.homemade-success.com" target="new" rel="nofollow">Site Build It</a> (better known as SBI). Once I started reading up on it, a light went off in my head and I thought, "I can do this!"<br><br><br>Darling Hubby gave me the go ahead and Chocolate Candy Mall was born!<br><br><br><i>It sounds easy when you say it fast,</i> but creating this website (and a few others since then) has been a lot of work. <b>But I've loved every minute of it!</b><br><br><br>SBI gave me, a gal with NO internet experience, all the tools, resources, and instruction I needed to take something that I love (Chocolate, of course!) and turn it into a monthly income source. <br><br><br>Don't be misled! It didn't happen overnight. I had to put in a lot of effort before I started getting regular checks in the mail, that's for sure. It was challenging, but definitely fun, too. <br><br><br>I just wonder how many of YOU might really benefit by treating yourself to an SBI package this Christmas and invest your time into something that will bless your family in years to come with a steady income flow.<br><br><br>I know a lot of friends and family who spend (waste) countless hours every week on Facebook and similar sites, socializing, playing games, etc. I wish they could see how that time could be used doing something just as enjoyable, but so much more rewarding. <br><br><br>It really comes down to a mindset. Wouldn't YOU like to learn a great new skill that you can enjoy at home in your spare time that would eventually bring in an additional full time income? If so, do what I did and <a href="http://sbi.homemade-success.com" target="new" rel="nofollow">treat yourself to SBI</a> this year!<br><br><br>

Wrapping and Packaging Tips

Amanda Formaro of Thrifty Fun suggests all sorts of fun ways to package your home-baked goodies. Use mason jars to stack cookies, or wrap shortbreads in colorful wraps. Baskets provide a great presentation for multiple baked goods in one package. Read more of these great suggestions here.

Once you've picked your presentation, pick out a box that will fit your goodies. If too large, make sure you pack soft packing material around your product so that it does not move around (this is important!) Tell your post office serviceman that you are shipping a baked good to see if they have any other helpful advice.
