The holidays are undoubtedly the most magical time of the year, but all those carefully considered gifts and decked-out festive halls actually require an extensive amount of behind-the-scenes work. While the end result is always worth it, I still find myself wishing I had twice as much time and half as many errands to run, so I could actually enjoy the moment — in addition to killing it at the gift exchange, of course!
Well, the good news is that DoorDash is here to help spread the cheer: You may not realize that you can actually get all your holiday essentials from your favorite local and national stores right on the DoorDash app. This includes everything you need to host a holiday feast, plus this season’s must-have beauty, decor, and other coveted finds that make for perfectly thoughtful gifts.
How’s that for twice as much time and half as many errands? Below, explore all the ways DoorDash is adding the magic back into gift-giving so that you can focus on what really matters.
1. Please Picky Recipients With Digital Or Physical Gift Cards
Do you have an impossible-to-buy-for recipient on your list? Maybe it’s a trend-setting cousin who’s always two steps ahead of what’s cool, or a partner who already bought themselves everything you planned to give them. Satisfy even the most particular people with a physical (or digital!) gift card to their favorite retailer, all easily shoppable on DoorDash, and delivered straight to their inbox or front door.
The best part? You still score big by gifting them exactly what they want this year.
2. Send Gifts With Personalized Notes In Just A Few Taps
DoorDash’s gifting experience makes it easier than ever to shower the ones you love with gestures from the heart. Whether you’re sending your mom a beautiful bouquet of blooms, shipping champagne to your bubbliest brother, or gifting the season’s most viral highlighter palette to your BeautyTok-obsessed niece, avoid busy stores by sending your presents — along with personalized notes — through DoorDash. So easy, and so thoughtful.
3. Choose A DashPass Membership For The Gift That Gives All Year Long
For friends and family who could use a little less stress in their lives (and way more convenience), consider gifting a DashPass membership. Not only does it provide savings year-round — like unlimited $0 delivery fees and reduced service fees on eligible orders — but it even lets them earn five percent back in DoorDash credits on certain pickup orders. It’s also the best way to unlock exclusive items and perks this season, like an additional $20 off select retail orders of $60+ from 11/29 to 12/5 for Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
Plus, thanks to partnerships with Max and Lyft, a DashPass membership helps them access more benefits like complimentary streaming and discounted rides — including 5 percent off on-demand Lyft rides and 10 percent off scheduled airport rides (up to four per month combined).
4. Skip Long Shipping Lines With The Package Pickup Feature
With all these exciting gifts for others, don’t forget to celebrate yourself a little in the process! Give yourself the gift of much-needed time back by taking advantage of DoorDash’s Package Pickup for tedious holiday errands, like shipping boxes and making returns. Request a Dasher to pick up prepaid packages from your home and drop them off at a local UPS, FedEx, and USPS for a flat fee.
Pass the eggnog, because I’m officially in the holiday spirit.
