Standard Birthday and Everyday Gifts ($40–$70)
Most birthday gifts for friends, extended family, or partners fall in this middle range, often combining two items like a cake and flowers. See our gift hampers collection for combinations in this range.
Gift Hampers
Milestone and Premium Gifts ($100+)
Significant anniversaries, milestone birthdays, or important business gifts often justify spending over $100, particularly when combining premium flowers, wine, and a hamper.
Sending Overseas From Different Markets
From the USA, Australia, or Canada
Overseas senders from these markets typically pay in USD at checkout, with no currency conversion needed since Vietgifts processes payment through a US bank.
Budget vs. Sentiment
A well-chosen $40 gift often communicates more thoughtfulness than a poorly matched $100 one — relationship and occasion matter more than hitting a specific price point.
