If you know of any online stores that have interesting, unique or fun products than can be purchased and shipped in time for Christmas, post a link here.
I love Vermont Country Store, they have many products from years gone by that you don't see sold anywhere else today.

Kitchen Kettle Village is in the heart of Amish Country in Pennsylvania. I make sure I stop there whenever I visit Lancaster to watch them make their mouth watering preserves, canned, farm fresh veggies and yummy baked goods for sale in their shop.They do everything by hand in small batches the old fashioned way using locally grown fruits and vegetables. They have a nice catalog and they are very reliable - I have ordered many boxes of goodies for my sweetie in New Hampshire and they arrive promptly and in perfect condition.

Harry & David has some of the best gourmet fruit and goodies baskets you'll find anywhere. Their fruits are top quality - try their signature Royal Riviera Pears or their fruit of the month clubs. They have something for every budget and everything arrives beautifully packaged.

Hammacher Schlemmer will knock your socks off - they have some of the most unique items for sale I've ever seen in a catalog. Items range from affordable to outrageously expensive. It's fun just to browse their catalog regardless of whether you order anything or not.

The Little Pie Company has delicious pies that are a bit pricey, but worth it for an occasional special treat. Try the sour cream apple walnut pie - it's amazing!

If you love cheesecake, you have to try Junior's Cheesecake - they are a New York City tradition since 1950. There's a good reason New Yorkers are willing to travel from all over to go to their restaurant in Brooklyn - they're that good!
