Send gift baskets to New York from Connecticut

The two ZIP codes

The only thing to get right is which details go where. Your address is for the card statement; the recipient's New York address sets the delivery day, the tax and whether ID is needed.

Your side of the form

Street, city and ZIP in Connecticut, matching the card. What the recipient learns about you is limited to the card message and whatever name you sign.

Who receives

Their full New York address — building, street, apartment or suite — plus the ZIP code (for example 10001 or 11201). The checker below and the checkout both read that ZIP for the delivery day.

Connecticut and New York keep the same time

There's no time difference between Connecticut and New York: the deadline for delivery today is 11 a.m. as you read it. You choose the recipient's New York date, not your own. Same-day covers Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens (11 a.m. Eastern, seven days a week, by 5 p.m. to businesses and 9 p.m. to homes); the Bronx, Staten Island, Long Island, Westchester and the rest of New York State are next business day by courier when the order is in by 2 p.m. Eastern, Monday to Friday.

Eastern time11 a.m. EDT for delivery today, 2 p.m. EDT for next-day, support 9 a.m.–8 p.m. EDT — all on Eastern time.

Working out today's cut-off in your time zone…

Checkout details worth knowing

Which tax applies

For a remote sale the sales tax belongs to the delivery address, so this order carries New York tax on the recipient's address — visible at checkout — and none of Connecticut's.

Your message, in your own words

Every product page has Add a Greeting Card — the card prints exactly what you type. Leave the sender line blank to stay anonymous.

The 21+ rule

Both Connecticut and New York set the drinking age at 21. Wine, champagne, beer and spirits are handed to someone 21+ showing photo ID — never left unattended.

Building it up

On the product page, Add Extras and Upgrade Your Gift add a bottle, more food or a bigger size, each with its price shown before you pay.

Another way in: the collections

Following up on the order

Where is it?

The tracking page wants two things: the email you ordered with and the recipient's New York ZIP. Give a fresh order a little time to show up.

Talk to someone

Email, phone or live chat, 9 a.m.–8 p.m. Eastern, seven days; in the run-up to major holidays the hours extend.

Out when it arrives?

No signature unless you ask. The driver leaves the gift with building staff — concierge, reception, mailroom — or in a safe place and lets you know. Not so for alcohol.

Where the store delivers

Pick the destination and its page tells you how delivery works there. Nothing about ordering from Connecticut changes.

Common questions, Connecticut edition

Does the basket come from Connecticut or from New York?

From New York. It is prepared by the store's New York team and delivered by local drivers; nothing is shipped from Connecticut, so there is no transit time and no courier box in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens.

What's the latest an order can go in for today?

Before 11 a.m. Eastern on the delivery day — Connecticut keeps the same clock as New York. After that, the checker offers the next delivery day.

Whose sales tax is on the order?

New York's, worked out for the recipient's address and shown at checkout — tax follows the delivery address, so Connecticut's rate does not apply to this order.

Which ZIP goes where?

Both, in different places: yours in your billing address, the recipient's New York ZIP in the delivery address and in the checker on this page.

Can the delivery be scheduled for a later day?

Yes — enter the recipient's ZIP, then pick any date the checker shows. Choose the New York date the gift should arrive.

What does the recipient find out about me?

Only what you choose: The recipient sees the gift, the card and, if you signed it, your name. The price, your address and your payment details are never shown.
