Ordering from Illinois · delivered in New York
Send gift baskets to New York from Illinois
A sender in Illinois, a recipient in New York: the gift is assembled by the store's own team in the city and hand-delivered by its drivers — the same day only in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens for orders in by 11 a.m. Eastern, which is 10 a.m. CDT where you are. No box travels from Illinois.
Two addresses, kept apart
Ordering from Illinois takes the same checkout as a New Yorker uses. Keep the payer's details and the recipient's in their own boxes — everything about delivery, tax and the age rule comes from the recipient's.
The billing fields
Your own address in Illinois, with your ZIP, as your bank has it. The recipient never sees it, nor the price — only the card and, if you sign, your name.
Theirs
Their New York street address, apartment or suite, and their ZIP code (like 10001 or 11201). Put the ZIP in the checker below to see which delivery day it gets; the same check runs at checkout.
Order times, converted to where you are
Delivery today means ordering by 11 a.m. Eastern, which Illinois reads as 10 a.m. CDT — earlier than you might expect; the night before is a good rule. 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.
Central time10 a.m. CDT for delivery today, 1 p.m. CDT for next-day, support 8 a.m.–7 p.m. CDT — all on Central time.
CostManhattan, Brooklyn or Queens: nothing to pay for delivery at $100 or more per address, $19.99 below. For courier addresses the rate appears at checkout before you commit.

What a Illinois sender pays, and to whom
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 Illinois's.
Write the card yourself
Type your note into Add a Greeting Card on the product page — it's printed verbatim. No name on it, no clue who it's from.
Sending a bottle: 21+
21 is the legal age in New York and in Illinois alike. Alcohol is released only to a recipient aged 21+ who presents photo ID, and is not left at the door.
Upgrades
Use Add Extras or Upgrade Your Gift on the product page to include wine, champagne, more gourmet items or a bigger basket — the price shows before checkout.

What happens next
Track the order
Order tracking on the store asks for the email address you used and the recipient's ZIP code. A brand-new order can take a little while to appear.
Reach the team
Support is available 9 a.m.–8 p.m. Eastern — 8 a.m.–7 p.m. CDT where you are — seven days, by email, phone and live chat, with longer hours around major holidays.
Nobody home?
No signature is needed unless you ask for one — the driver can leave the gift with a concierge, reception desk or mailroom, or in a safe spot, and you're told when it's done. Gifts with alcohol are the exception.
Where the store delivers
The delivery arrangements vary from place to place, and each page spells them out; the way you order from Illinois does not.

Ordering questions: Illinois to New York
Which tax will I be charged?
New York's, worked out for the recipient's address and shown at checkout — tax follows the delivery address, so Illinois's rate does not apply to this order.
Can I choose a delivery date in advance?
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.
Does the basket come from Illinois 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 Illinois, so there is no transit time and no courier box in Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens.
What about an office, a hospital or a school?
Yes, on a day the building receives deliveries. Add the company or ward, the floor or room and a phone number; for a hospital, check the unit accepts food or flowers first.
On Central time, how early must I order?
Before 11 a.m. Eastern on the delivery day, which is 10 a.m. CDT where you are. The line above shows today's cut-off on your own clock. Many senders order the evening before for the next day.
