So much so that they're requesting people NOT do alcohol related stuff to mix it up, ha ha. </p> <p>Target gift cards are popular as well. I brought a mini-fondue set one year - some small kitchen appliances are less than $20 and those can be fun to gift. Like a mini crockpot for dips. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967481 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 12:30:17 +0000 jhd 1967481@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Starbucks cards were the most popular at my work. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967442 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 12:10:41 +0000 fussygal 1967442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Coffee mug/travel mug and a coffee gift card! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967417 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 12:03:43 +0000 Mamaof2 1967417@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks!

I'm doing a white elephant exchange with a group of 10 friends and need some fun ideas! </p> <p>I did lotto tickets one year - super popular! And someone ended up winning $5 :)</p> <p>Other ideas:<br /> - Pair of coffee mugs w/Starbucks gift card<br /> - Nice journal, like a Moleskin<br /> - Board game?<br /> - Maybe a tea infuser with a collection of teas?<br /> - Movie tickets? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967360 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 11:41:18 +0000 butterbean 1967360@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A friend of mine bought a "mad libs" book and stuffed single dollar bills and lotto tickets between the pages... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967358 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 11:40:23 +0000 alohaorchid 1967358@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with lottery tickets, they are always a big hit! Also, anything to do with food or baking is a good idea. I like the jars that have dry ingredients, with a recipe attached to them.</p> <p>I usually put something on the side of a gift to entice people to want to trade it... lottery tickets, gift cards, candy, small bottle of booze, etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967355 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 11:38:31 +0000 MaryM 1967355@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Last year I took homemade banana bread, tied a ribbon around it, and under the ribbon slipped scratch off lottery tickets. We did a yankee swap and it was the most traded item because of the scratchers. (but none were winners. oops!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/20-gift-idea-for-co-worker#post-1967351 Tue, 02 Dec 2014 11:37:01 +0000 Mamaof2 1967351@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are doing a white elephant gift exchange at our holiday luncheon this year - I need a $20 gift idea (could be a guy or a girl who gets it). </p>
