How much is nice amount for 3 secretaries in e-commerce office. Two are married one is single.
I want to get gift card in home shop or any ideas welcome but what’s the fair amount for chanuka gift?

Minimum $100
And if it were for me I’d rather a visa gift card Wink

Please don't differentiate between married and single employees. Give them all the same amount.

Thank you I’m giving all the same. 100 is enough or more like 150? 200?

$100 sounds generous to me. Just a little bit late.

If anyone was inclined to gift me $100 or more, I wouldn't be complaining that chanukah was over a week ago!

Are these just employees who report to you?

Is one your personal assistant?

I ask because $100 is quite a generous gift for a random worker whereas one might be more generous to one's personal assistant.

$100 is standard. More than that is generous and will make a more generous impression

From your employer? I hope they’re generous in other way then.

Maybe it's an end of year gift

Maybe they aren't Jewish employees

Why is it late? There is so much happening around Chanukah - now is perfect as they can really appreciate the gesture without the craziness.
OP, I only gave my gift this morning and it was very much appreciated by all. Go on, you can still give your Chanukah gift.

If you can afford the $100, its nice. If you want to do less, it comes out nice as smaller amount when its specific to a place. Breakfast take out place or similar.
I personally cannot affort those types of gifts and give something nice with a card that costs me under $15 each and feels like a lot more value.

Cheap? For a chanukah gift? $250 is very nice. Even $200 is on the nicer end for office secretaries. You should consider yourself lucky that you got cash in general, some companies give a promotional gift or chocolate.
