Looking to send out about 30-40 gifts between $40 and $150 (give or take 20%). So some smaller gifts and some larger ones.

We are in The Woodlands, but have customers local and also around and out of the State - so it needs to be shippable. Most of these companies have small departments they may share with.

Any interesting ideas that go over well?

Some things we've done in the past:

1. https://www.chocolatepizazz.com/
2. https://www.michaelscookiejar.com/
3. https://shop.goodecompany.com/brazos-bottom-pecan-pie-in-a-wooden-box/
4. insulted coffee mug engraved with logo / filed with chocolate

Gas gift card.

I don't know about your industry, but in Ag everyone has given out hundreds of those Yeti cups over the years. I regift them to keep down the amount we have in the house.

We are primarily a fuel card / GPS company, so… good idea!

If I happen to get a $40 gas card from a company, now I'm going to know you consider me the lowest importance of your clients.

I've used Dallas Caramel Company for small thank you gifts before and I've never had a complaint.

Mini ticket packages to the astros or rockets. Hell, for that price you might be able to get them all a private suite at a texans game.

We have an entire cabinet full of Yeti cups via client gifts and Christmas gifts.

We have given out wrapping paper from a company called rich wrap. In a male dominated industry, it was always well received by their wives/girl friends.

This. Buy a barrel and make custom labels. You'll need a liquor store to help out but its cool and unique. Would probably have to start planning now for next Christmas though unfortunately.

Most companies won't allow employees to accept a gas card, fwiw.

I always did wine. For my immediate team who reported to me I would find a wine label that I thought represented the team that year.

For example, one year I got them all a bottle of Freakshow.

An ounce of sticky icky. Since we're considering consciousness altering substances as appropriate.

I just got my annual gift from one of my vendors yesterday. They do it every year.

It's cracked pecans. A large paper bag of them. We all eat them around our office for a few weeks. I don't think it would break the bank, and I always look forward to them.

I looked for a company name, but it's just a brown paper bag and shipped from my vendors office. So I can't help with that.

"https://www.chocolatepizazz.com/"

I thought it said "Chocolate Pizza" and was honestly disappointed when I clicked the link.

We have had a ton of success with Tiffs Treats. at https://www.cookiedelivery.com/

This reminds me of my mom. I'd pick her up a box or two of the frozen toffee every time I was in midland

We do Juanita's peanut brittle and it's always well received. They do smaller tubs that are great for individuals and large ones that work for offices to share.

I enjoy getting a bucket of gourmet popcorn from one of our vendors. Also, the Christmas packages from Mrs. Fields cookies are good.

I had a vendor give me a 16oz(?) yeti coffee cup. It is pretty nice and I use it constantly.

If you cant go that level, give me food. I don't mean a cookie or some candy but a really baller catered lunch.
