Link doesn't work for me ... but I know, we would use a picnic backpack for when we go to see the bands at the gazebo in Northport in the summer

Okay, well, not sure I would need silverware, etc (we usually bring PBJ!!) ... but I still think it's a nice gift idea for the right person.

I think it is cute. but not very practical. How would you really secure the food? In tupperware? But, I do like it

I really like that!! I'm not sure if we'd use it very much, but I think it is a wonderful gift for an outdoorsy type of person

Re: If you received this a a gift, would you use it?
Sorry, fixed the link.I received this as a wedding present from a co-worker. I think it is a really cute idea, but I don't really know of any place where we would go on picincs. We do like the outdoors, but where we hike, there aren't picnic grounds.
I WANT to use it, but where can I go with it? You can't take wine to the beach, and we dont' go to the beach really since we live inWestchester.
We camp once a year, but bring a whole car load of stuff & use paper plates. I guess we could bring it then, but obviously our food wouldn't all fit in there.
I also already own a similar thing that is just for wine. (Christmas gift)

Re: If you received this a a gift, would you use it?
We have one but it's more of a basket we throw some steaks in there, veggies, seasonings, wine and would drive down to this park of the Gulf and would BBQ and have a picnic.We used it all the time. We had an apartment back then and weren't allowed to have a grill so it was perfect for the two of us to just take it down to the park and meet us after work!

You could go for a picnic at the Kensico Dam- in season they have concerts and festivals, but I just go their to walk with my dog or read a book. Also, the grassy area at Oakland Park in Rye is good for picnics. You could do it on a night that Playland has fireworks.

We went to the Kensico Dam once & thought it was creepy. But maybe because it was a yucky weather day & there wern't many people there.
I've never heard of Oakland Park, but I went to Rye once & thought it was a cute area. I''ll have to look into it in the spring! Thanks.

Re: If you received this a a gift, would you use it?
i always wanted something like that so i could go on picnics and my mother ended up giving me one cause she had a few that she never used (i dont know why she had them lol) and everytime i remember i have it, it's either raining or snowing or something.but i do like having it and having the option for using it.

I think it's cute but honestly, no I'd probably never use it. I have to say I'm surprised someone gave that to you for a wedding present. A shower I could see but it's a little bit odd for a wedding present IMO
