In our home, we honor those that go above and beyond to help others and who make the world better. Military, law enforcement, and medical people are at the top of our list, but around the holidays especially, we also stop and give thanks to those that help us all have the merriest of times.
From the mail delivery people, to the gardener, and a whole bunch of other people… they are the heroes of the holidays that are often overlooked as we lead our busy lives.
Each year we do something special for these wonderful people. I’ve given out candy and homemade cookies, and this year, since it is warmer than normal, I’m giving out Santa Coca-Cola Bottles.
We set up a stand right inside our front door where we greet our delivery drivers so that they can take a bottle or two of Coca-Cola. Then they can either enjoy the Coke right away, or save it for later. I love this idea because this is an immediate thank you to them, and it also is refreshing on days when they are working overtime to make sure that we all get our gifts in time for the big day!
Since we are traveling a lot right now and I haven’t even bought a single gift for Christmas, it is going to be a 100% online Christmas for us. I’m anticipating seeing our drivers daily for the next week or so and I stocked up to make sure that I had enough Coca-Cola for them each time they come to our home. I really want them to know how much we appreciate them this time of year and always.
These are the people that I’m making the holiday special for with their help!
Once we had the table set up, our first moment of thanks was when our gardener came on a Sunday to do a little extra sprucing up to our front yard. He knows that we have a big Christmas Eve party each year, and he wanted to make sure our home looked extra good.
Pete went right over to the Holiday Hero Table as we are calling it, and picked up some Coca-Cola.
Then he took them outside, and enjoyed one with our gardener. He was camera shy but his smile spoke volumes! Pete wasn’t as shy about drinking his! Not only is it refreshing to drink, with an unforgettable delicious taste, but the nostalgia from his own childhood enjoying a coke with his parents and brothers during the holidays made it even more special.
I can’t wait to start sharing a Coke and thanking our delivery drivers for all they are doing to help make Christmas awesome this year! Nothing will refresh a holiday hero like a delicious Coca-Cola, and they deserve to stop and savor the moment.
Those are so great! I’ve always loved the Christmas themed Coca Cola bottles, and I think a little 6 pack like this is a great gift idea.
Coca-Cola is the ultimate American classic brand. And they’ve always had such cool ads, marketing campaigns and specially styled products like these that are definitely gift worthy.
Having a Coke ready for delivery drivers is such an easy way to show gratitude during the holidays. Love those fun Santa bottles too!
These packs are a great way to say thank you. I will have to pick up a few to give out. I think it is important to say thank you.
Those are such fun coke bottles, and special for the occasion. What a great moment you captured.
I feel a bit nostalgic seeing those bottles. Our family loves Coca Cola products and my Dad used to collect those.
This is a perfect gift of gratitude to those people that helps us in our everyday life! Will be making a list whom I want to give this to! 😀
We don’t drink a lot of soda but I’d definitely buy these bottles! How can you not love the glass bottles with Santa!
I love those glass bottles, it’s always a great time for giving and sharing. 🙂
These bottles are awesome. I know that Coke is one of our favorite drinks period and out of a glass bottle they are even better.
This is a great way to say thanks to the people that are all too easy to take for granted. Who wouldn’t love to get a nice, cold bottle of refreshment?
Very thoughtful to thank the delivery drivers. Tis’ the Season.
There is nothing like a cold Coke in a glass bottle. What a great idea for our holiday heroes!
Coca-Cola is an iconic brand. Definitely a favorite in our house! I love those little bottles, too!
