I had my 'work do' tonight and as is customary we gave gifts. We organised is as we all brought a present worth $10 put it all into a bag and did a lucky draw. I have heard of other ways of doing this such as secret Santa so you get given a person and buy a present for them usually within a price bracket. Other ways include sitting in a circle and reading a poem which tells you where to pass the present to mix it all up.
Which ever way the presents are distributed there is always the issue of knowing what to buy! For my work it was pretty general, we are all female! So i brought a small photo frame and got a hand cream and nail file as shown below.
I believe that these small gifts are the best, personally i would feel a bit cut short if i got chocolate but all to there own. Tonight there was one present I've never seen which was a solar light a very pretty one at that.
To have pretty fail proof presents i try to stick to these rules.
1) not chocolate as not everyone wants to eat that or can eat that
2) a small trinket like a key chain mostly will be used
3) if you know who will get the present a joke one will always be good
And last but not least 5) if you don't know whos getting your present don't go over budget!
I hope i may have helped you at least a little bit by my mini work present guide also given some ideas via my personal experience!
