We had a great experience using Give Portland Gifts. At first I found the website a bit confusing,…read moreand decided to call. On the first ring I was able to speak with the owner and found the service from there on to be easy. We wanted a beautiful Vegan Easter Basket for our daughter who lives near downtown Portland, and Give Portland Gifts did not disappoint! A wine basket with all sorts of locally made goodies was delivered to her door, all within a few days of ordering. Would highly recommend. Joan N. Boston, MA

I can't believe this place doesn't have more reviews!!…read more I saw that another customer used this company for their significant other while away on business travel. My husband was doing the same and also traveling on his birthday, so I wanted a nice surprise waiting for him when he arrived to his hotel. The gift basket did not disappoint! I called and spoke with Gwen who was absolutely wonderful! Together we created the perfect custom gift basket full of local Portland goods that my hubby can snack on during his week long trip in the city! He was blown away by the quality of the products and the packaging! Thank you so much for making his day... and mine! I will definitely be using them again for other special occasions.

SJFS is an amazing place! They provide food to so many people! Everybody walks away with bags…read moreoverflowing with many types of food. They have frozen meat (beef, chicken, pork), dairy, eggs (sometimes), lots of fresh vegetables and fruit, ready-made meals, canned goods, dry food, dessert, and more. Since their model is based on donations, you never know what you're going to get- but that's part of the fun. I love seeing what unusual vegetables and fruits they have. The volunteers are great, and they help new clients figure out the store's layout. They're always available to answer questions. Most of the volunteers only speak English, but a few are fluent (at least at a conversational level) in Spanish and other languages. There is a line, so be prepared to wait awhile. The volunteers set up tents to cover people in line if it's raining. I definitely recommend going here if you are struggling to afford food. It's a lifesaver. It's 100% free to use and doesn't have income barriers.

I took a watch to Gina that my wife had bought me about 10 years ago. The battery had died, and I…read morehad taken it to several jewelers who wouldn't change it because the watch face is so large. She had it to a jeweler and replaced after just a few days. A few weeks later, I noticed that the watch face had become foggy on the inside. Gina came to my office and diagnosed the issue in about 5 seconds. To be sure, she took it to the same jeweler that had replaced the battery, and sure enough, her diagnosis was spot on. A seal had been broken and needed to be replaced. She called me back with an extremely fair quote and had the watch fixed and back to me about 2 weeks later. Overall, she made the process extremely smooth. I had started to lose hope after 3 jewelers couldn't help me with just a battery replacement, and my watch had actually sat unworn for several months. With Gina's expertise and help, I am back to wearing the watch every day. I highly recommend that anyone who needs help repairing, replacing or purchasing jewelry, start right here with Gina. She's made a life-long client out of me!

For a week or so I've been researching types of Silver lockets that are unique in design, style and…read morequality. After reading online for several days, I was confused about metals, what is rhodium as an example, and what did that have to do with some some silvers? Was this good or bad? I noted that prices were all over the map too. I wanted to know the ideal chain length too. Confused, I started looking for help. I knew jewelry stores probably would only be interested in selling me "something". Looking online, I saw Gina Cobb's website, noting her positive mentions in Yelp, Google and even on Youtube! Finally I had found someone in the "know" who would help me. I gave Gina a call and on the other end was a bubbly, knowledgeable person who answered my questions, and listened to what I was looking for. We set up a time to meet. She brought with her, several examples for me to look at, even had a template showing a visual of different sizes. ( lockets are measured in millimeters) To my delight and surprise, within an hr. I not only selected the perfect locket for me, but right then and there Gina ordered the locket too! She knew that the choice had to be special, it will hold the photo of a man I've been married to for 60 years and wish to keep close to my heart. Thank you so much Gina for your caring attention to detail, the grace to listen carefully and lastly, putting me and my budget first. Many Blessings and Continued Success. Judith C

I've ordered two Happy Baskets so far, both for very different occasions…read more The first was a sympathy basket for someone whose mother had just passed. At first, I wondered if a "Happy Basket" would be appropriate for such a situation, but they did a wonderful job--using black ribbon and thoughtful touches so it looked entirely fitting for the occasion. The second basket I ordered was a rather unusual request, and they not only accommodated everything within my budget but went above and beyond.
