Looking for some holiday gift ideas

I need gift ideas for a team. $50 to $75 for each person. There are both men and women of different ages on the team.

I was thinking about a gift bag with a nice travel mug, a Starbucks gift card, and some chocolate. But I want to explore more ideas first.

This isn’t really answering your question, just my thoughts. I really think people shouldn’t have to stress about buying gifts for coworkers. Aren’t the holidays already stressful and expensive?

I agree. I’d prefer a nice lunch somewhere and just take the rest of the day off.

I understand… I’ve tried to cut back on gift giving. This is actually for my partner. It’s kind of expected for managers to buy gifts for their team.

It’s nice to think about but honestly, no one really wants another mug. If they don’t drink coffee and are trying to avoid sugar, an Amazon gift card would be better so they can pick what they want.

Seriously, no more cups or mugs or anything that holds liquid. I already have too many.

People generally don’t want gifts. Most employees would prefer cash.

Or maybe a paid day off would be nice.

A fresh $50 bill in a simple card would work too.

Consider nice USB rechargeable flashlights. They usually go for about $25 to $35.
I just bought 6 for family members.

That’s a good idea! Also think about getting a charging bank.

Solar chargers are awesome.

The person who posted this definitely shouldn’t get another travel mug!!

Exactly, the last thing I need is another mug, especially one that I probably won’t even like.

@Heath
Lol, so many mugs! :woman_facepalming::sparkling_heart:

That’s a fantastic suggestion!

I don’t drink caffeine or eat chocolate so those ideas wouldn’t work for me. :frowning: A travel mug without any logos would be good, and a $50 visa card I can use anywhere would be great.

I totally get it. My company sends gifts with their logo on them to clients who are millionaires. They really don’t need a cheese dome with the company name; they will probably throw it out.

For Admin day, they give us logo-stamped stuff. I skip picking up my “gift.” They can keep it.

To the person who posted this, a gift card is always a hit. $75 to Amazon would be perfect.

How about gift cards for a gas station?

That’s actually the best idea I’ve heard so far.

No one will complain about getting free gas (even if it’s just once, it would really help out my budget lol)

Unless they take the bus :sweat_smile:
