Entering the addresses

Checkout asks for the recipient's address first and your billing address second; only the delivery address decides the timing and the tax.

Your Pennsylvania billing address

Enter it exactly as your card issuer has it — street, city, Pennsylvania and ZIP code. It appears nowhere on the gift.

Where the gift goes

Complete street address (unit or suite included), city, state, ZIP code and a working phone number for the recipient.

Same clock as the warehouse — the dispatch line is 2 p.m. Eastern

Pennsylvania keeps Eastern time, the same as the warehouse, so the 2 p.m. dispatch line reads the same on your clock. After that the courier decides, and it is one to two business days anywhere in the capital region. You choose the recipient's delivery date at checkout; the dispatch line and the transit time together decide the earliest one the checker will offer.

Eastern timeDispatch closes at 2 p.m. EDT in your time, which is the warehouse's 2 p.m. Eastern. Support answers 9 a.m.–8 p.m. EDT.
CostOrders of $100+ per delivery address travel free, before tax. Below $100, the delivery charge appears at checkout.

When can it arrive?

Our customers' favourites

Pennsylvania's own history is thin; the ranking is the store's, since January 2023, and says so.

Half of Pennsylvania's orders are under the $116 median and half over.

The money side

Recipient's address, recipient's tax

Checkout applies the sales tax of the place the gift is delivered in, not Pennsylvania's; you see it before paying.

Card and address

Visa, Mastercard, Amex or Discover, with the billing address as your statement shows it.

21+ across the DMV

The drinking age is 21 in every US state, so a gift with a bottle goes to someone 21+ and is handed over against photo ID.

Card and add-ons

Your message travels on a complimentary card; extras — bottles, balloons, gourmet items — are added from the product page.

Nobody home?

No signature is needed for a basket without alcohol: the courier may leave it in a safe spot or with reception, retry, or hold it at a pickup point for about five business days.

From Pennsylvania: the usual questions

Does the basket come from Pennsylvania or from the warehouse?

From our New Jersey warehouse, never from your state. Everything travels by courier into the capital region, one to two business days to a District, Maryland or Virginia address.

When do I need to order?

The warehouse packs until 2 p.m. Eastern, Monday to Friday, and your clock is the same one. Transit follows: one to two business days into the capital region. Same-day delivery is not offered by this store, anywhere, so the checker's date is the earliest available.

Which tax will I be charged?

The tax of the place the gift is delivered — the District, Maryland or Virginia — worked out from the delivery address, not Pennsylvania's rate. It shows at checkout before you pay.

Whose ZIP goes in the checker?

Theirs — the checker and the checkout work from the recipient's ZIP. Your ZIP only matters on the billing form, where it must match your card.

Is a future date possible?

Yes — choose any later date at checkout; the dispatch and transit times only set the earliest day. For a holiday, order early: closures are skipped and busy periods fill.

What does the package say about me?

No. The package carries your name as the sender, the greeting card with your message, and the store's contact details — never your address or card.
