Giving Christmas Gifts To Customers?

would it be in poor taste to give a small ($50) christmas gift (most likely a gift card to a restuarant) to a few of my best customers?

Just keep in mind that only 25 bucks per is deductable, anything above that comes from your bottom line.

As long as you know they are Christians I would say it is fine.
I like to send out holiday mailers to my favorite customers, just a thank you/holiday greeting card.
