Celebrate a lifetime of achievements with a best-selling retirement gift
How much should I spend on a retirement gift?
The amount depends on your relationship. Here are a few suggestions:
- Coworker or acquaintance: $25–$50
- Close colleague or team member: $50–$100
- Boss or longtime employee: $100+
The key is choosing something thoughtful, not necessarily expensive.
Are group retirement gifts appropriate?
Absolutely! Group gifts allow colleagues to pool resources for a high-quality or larger personalized gift, such as a crystal award or travel package.
When should you give a retirement gift?
Ideally, the gift should be given at a retirement party, farewell lunch, or on the retiree’s last day of work.
What makes a retirement gift meaningful?
A meaningful retirement gift reflects the retiree’s personality, career, and future plans. Personalization, messages of appreciation, and gifts aligned with hobbies or dreams make it extra special.
