When to order Thanksgiving gifts in 2026

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, 2026. Aim for gifts to arrive the week before, while people are still at work.

  • Before people leave for the week (arrives Fri, Nov 20)

    Under 100 gifts, no logo: order by Fri, Nov 6. 100+ or branded: by Fri, Oct 23.

  • Monday of Thanksgiving week (arrives Mon, Nov 23)

    Under 100 gifts, no logo: order by Mon, Nov 9. 100+ or branded: by Mon, Oct 26.

Every date is in 2026. Branded or 100+ gift orders need 4 to 6 weeks, so if that window has passed, send unbranded gifts with your note inside, ask us about a rush, or move the thank-you to early December with corporate holiday gifts.

Thanksgiving gifts for employees and clients

One real gift for each group you usually thank in November, with the price per gift before shipping.

Corporate Thanksgiving gifts by budget

Every gift is chocolate: boxes, collections and a tower to share. Pick one tier per group so everyone in it gets the same gift.

Under $40: one for every employee

The same small box for everyone on the roster, so the thank-you reaches the whole company before the long weekend.

$40 to $100: clients and your own team

A full box or a tower to put out on the table. The range most companies pick for clients and for a manager's direct reports.

$100 to $200: key accounts and partners

Larger boxes for the clients and partners who carried your year.

$200 and up: a few people who matter most

Statement collections for a top account, a board member or a founding partner.

Every gift opens our partner store, where you can order online. Sending to a long list or adding your logo? Get a free quote with volume pricing instead.

Why send the thank-you at Thanksgiving

A November gift does a different job from a December one. Six things to plan around.

  • It lands before the December pile.

    A client gift in Thanksgiving week stands out more than one of ten that arrive the week before Christmas.

  • Thanks is the whole message.

    There is no holiday to get wrong. A gratitude note fits every team, whatever they celebrate in December.

  • Catch people before they leave.

    Many people take Wednesday to Friday off. Aim for arrival by Friday, November 20, 2026, or Monday, November 23 at the latest.

  • Home beats the office this week.

    Ship to the office only if people will be in on Monday or Tuesday. Otherwise the box waits on a desk until December.

  • Global teams: call it a thank-you.

    US Thanksgiving is an ordinary week abroad, and Canada's was Monday, October 12, 2026. Send a year-end thank-you instead.

  • Mind client gift limits.

    Many clients and all public agencies cap what staff can accept. A modest box shared by their team is the safe choice.

What to write in a Thanksgiving gift note

Two sentences: say thank you, then name one thing they did. Copy one and fill in the brackets.

Your note goes inside every box. For longer messages and more wording, see Thanksgiving messages for work.

To an employee

  • Thank you for everything you brought to this year. Enjoy the long weekend with the people you love.

To a whole team

  • This team made a hard year look easy. Thank you, and happy Thanksgiving.

To a client

  • Thank you for trusting us with [project] this year. We are grateful to work with you. Happy Thanksgiving from all of us at [Company].

To a partner or vendor

  • We could not have shipped [project] without you. Thank you, and enjoy the holiday.

To someone outside the US

  • As our US team takes a day to give thanks, we wanted to say it to you too. Thank you for a great year together.

Thanksgiving gift questions

What are good Thanksgiving gifts for employees?

Something they can share at home over the long weekend, the same for everyone, with a short thank-you from their manager. A chocolate gift box, a truffle collection or a tower for the family table all work. Ship it to arrive by Friday, November 20, 2026, before people leave for the week.

When should we order Thanksgiving gifts in 2026?

Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, 2026. For smaller unbranded orders, order by Friday, November 6 for arrival by Friday, November 20, or by Monday, November 9 for arrival on Monday, November 23. Orders of 100 or more, or anything branded, need 4 to 6 weeks: for the same arrival dates that meant ordering by October 23 or October 26.

Are Thanksgiving gifts for clients a good idea?

Yes. A client gift in Thanksgiving week stands out more than one that arrives with ten others before Christmas, and a thank-you fits every client whatever they celebrate. Keep it modest, send something their team can share, and check the client's own gift limits first.

How much should we spend on corporate Thanksgiving gifts?

There is no standard amount. Most companies pick one tier per group: under $40 for every employee, $40 to $100 for clients and a manager's own team, and $100 or more for top accounts. Our gifts run from $22 to $432.

What should a Thanksgiving gift note say?

Two sentences: thank them, then name one thing they did this year. For example: "Thank you for trusting us with [project] this year. We are grateful to work with you." Your note goes inside every box.

Can you ship Thanksgiving gifts to remote employees at home?

Yes. Send a spreadsheet of names and addresses and each gift is packed and shipped individually to its own address, in the US and internationally. Timing and regional shipping charges depend on the destination list.

Can we add our logo to Thanksgiving gifts?

Yes, with logo ribbon, branded inserts or printed packaging where available, but branding needs 4 to 6 weeks. If that's too late for Thanksgiving week, send unbranded gifts with your note inside. More on the custom logo gifts page.

Can we celebrate Thanksgiving together instead of sending a gift?

Yes. A hosted gratitude game or a kit workshop on Tuesday, November 24, 2026 gives a remote team an hour together before the break. Book a hosted game by November 10, a kit workshop for US guests by November 3, and about 5 weeks ahead with guests in Canada or abroad.
