Gift Assist: Unique Gifts in Oklahoma City, Without the Legwork
A young patient at the hospital here in OKC was about to celebrate his birthday. A group of families wanted him to feel special. Together, they sent a Gift Assist, and what came back was a backpack full of candy and things he could use both in the hospital and once he was out.
That's the idea behind Gift Assist: shop local, support independent makers and small businesses, and still do it quickly.
Here's how it works.
The white flag on the website
Gift Assist lives on plentymercantile.com as a small white flag. Like surrender. I need help.
"You tell us what you know, we run with it and we knock it out."
The form lets you be really, really specific about the person you're gifting. It has evolved over the years, and it's designed for any scale.
Unique gifts in Oklahoma City, at any scale
Gift Assist handles:
- A one-off gift at any price point, when there's no time to mix the right things together for that particular person
- Multiples of the same gift
- Many different gifts at once
- Corporate gifting, put on the team's radar through the same form
For larger corporate or employee gifting, appointments are open to sit down together and think it through: product options, how quickly the order needs to turn, and all the little things that are easier with a second set of eyes. Book one through Gift Assist at plentymercantile.com.
There are three ways in. Book that appointment, use the built-in form and send what you know, or come into the shop and create your own mix.
Corporate gifts with your own branding
With corporate gifting, now is the time to get orders in. Gift Assist lets each order be customized to your specifics.
Bring your own branding and it goes on the box. It can even go on the popcorn, making the whole gift truly yours. Boxes can be built for a company or an office, or personalized for one colleague. Prefer to build it live in the shop? Bring your own container.
Boxes for shipping, baskets by hand
Every Gift Assist is built around exactly what you told the team, down to how it will travel.
- Shipping it? Everything is positioned neatly in a box, so it looks and feels like a gift when it's opened and is still safe to ship.
- Delivering it by hand? An open-concept basket.
Pick it up at the Flagship store or the Reserve store, or have it shipped.
Lead time makes it better
Quick turnarounds are possible, and a gift can be knocked out in a pinch. With lead time, though, it can become something more robust.
If a birthday, a client gift or a special occasion is already on your radar, fill out the Gift Assist now. Work starts right away, and the deadline is met when it's time. The more lead time, the better.
Tell the team the specifics
Shopping online works too, but mixing and matching across a whole website takes time. Many people use the notes section to mention something they saw in a video, in the store or on the website. They simply don't have the capacity to order it, pair it with other things and make it gift-ready.
The team does. Share the specifics and they'll be part of the gift.

Gift Assist is a thoughtful exercise for the whole team, and one of the most direct ways to connect with Oklahoma City. Every request supports local careers and the independent makers on Plenty's shelves.
