Buying gifts for coworkers can be difficult! How much do you spend? Do you go funny or serious? Is anything related to liquor allowed? Here’s the answers to all those questions plus the greatest gift guide for coworkers ever!
How much to spend – unless you feel like you need to, I would stick to around or under $30 per person. Only three of these items are over $30, and one of those is $34! You do not need to (and shouldn’t want to) break the bank to spend on gifts for your coworkers. If $30 isn’t feasible then don’t force it!
Funny or serious – this is going to depend on your specific workplace and also the relationship you have with each coworker. Some offices do gift exchanges where they just exchange liquor, some offices it would be taboo to give anything to do with that. You know your office but you will never go wrong by giving more serious or liquor free gifts.
Let me walk you through some of these gifts because, not to pat myself on the back too hard, but this gift guide for coworkers is pretty sweet! One of the best purchases is this package of six mini hand creams – you can give each of them out that would make each gift under $8. Slap a cute bow or ribbon on there and it’s perfect! If you’d like a more personal gift then this college hand towel is what you want to order. There are a ton of different colleges and universities to choose from and it would make a sweet personal gift for a colleague. Also personalized is this welcome mat, get their last name or initial on it for $30 and they’ll be sure to love it! This leather wrapped pen is one of my favorites – I love giving this at all times but it’s a great gift that coworkers will actually USE. They come in different colors or you can stick with simple black.
The funny gifts I’ve added on this gift guide for coworkers are this Millennials vs Boomers game, this Stir the Pot game, this Dammit Doll (I have one and loooooove it), these work from home virtual meeting cards, and this NO button.
If you’re in the mood to give something related to liquor then grab this aerator and give it with a bottle of wine. Every wine is going to be better when it’s been aerated so even if the bottle is cheap it’s going to be good! Every image below is clickable.
