New York, NY (WFN) -- Celebrities are walking away with more and more loot in those token gift "bags" that are given away at awards shows. Gone are the days when guests at a VIP party or awards show walked away with nothing more than "a paper bag and a magazine," says Samantha Milo Haft, whose On 3 Productions specializes in events gift baskets. She started in the business four years ago and says back then, she had to make hundreds of calls to companies to get just a few to agree to donate their goods. Now, she has 150-200 firms clamoring to get their items in the hands of the celebrity partygoers. Milo Haft is coordinating the thank you gifts for presenters and guests at Saturday's Independent Spirit Awards and says this year's package totals more than $21,000. Some of the items Elijah Woods and other presenters will get include: a TiVO, a weekend at the New York Ritz Carlton and a gift certificate for LASIK eye surgery.
