Do you get from your boss or give to your employees anything for thanksgiving? I'm thinking like grocery store gift certificates or turkeys...?
I'm heading to Vons tomorrow to buy a bunch of gift cards for our guys. Ya think $25 is enough or is $50 more like it? Maybe somewhere in between? It adds up with 17 people...:eek:

Getting turkeys suck! 25 bucks to put in the gas tank for the trip to Mom@Dads rocks.;)

I had a lunch for over 125 people which included family members. It is not much in dollars but it sure makes people feel special.

Since Thanksgiving is not a traditional gift giving holiday, I think $25 is more than generous on your part. You're basically putting the turkey on the table.
Agreed.
I received a happy T.G. letter, 2 days off paid and $25. :D
I guess there is "Thanks" and "giving" in Thanks giving.

$25 is more that adequate...Grocery Store, Honey Baked Ham, Boston Market, or even ARCO... :cool:

My hubby works for a LARGE company and he gets his $25 gift card every year. We won't need it this year, but it could buy my sisters groceries for a few days.....so we always give it to her. :)

Do you get (or give) anything for posting everything twice. Geez, no wonder you have 12,000 posts.:D
I used to get a turkey every year from work. I think I might still have one in the freezer from 2004. I don't cook much.

We rotate Turkey's or Honey Baked Ham's for our employees every other year.
They all seem to appreciate it.

I think that is a very nice gift and a $25 gift card is generous. A lot of people don't get squat for Thanksgiving from their employer.
