Aloha Friday - Company Gift Exchange



Aloha Fridays are brought to you by Kailani from An Island Life. Over there in Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So Kailani thought that on Fridays she would take it easy on posting, too. So, for Aloha Friday, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Answer my question and put one of your own up on your blog. Link up and check out other blogs that participate at An Island Life.

What would you bring to a company gift exchange that is cool but has a limit of $10-15?

Every year for the last ten years I have been going to my husband's company Christmas parties. Every single one requires that we bring an anonymous Christmas gift for the white elephant gift exchange. I have always been able to find things on sale that are pretty great gifts or in the past we have re-gifted alcohol that we received at the prior years party. This year I am stumped for what to get. What would you bring to a company gift exchange that is cool but has a limit of $10-15?

I don't know if you live by a Costco, but they have really nice candle gifts for that price.

I would pick up a cheapie, but sexy piece of lingerie . . . great for a few laughs. . . as long as it's anonymous!

A Starbucks gift card inside a cheap mug stuffed with tissue paper and pieces of coffee flavored hard candy.

Or....an Aventine Hill Bath Emporium soap and lotion. LOL! (that's my company, I thought I'd be funny and plug it. ha ha). Sorry. :)

Ones that I have really wanted at our company gift exchanges were...a $10 gift certificate to Barnes and Nobles w/ a $5 gift card to starbucks. This is always a big success...
Also, a couple of the cute plastic margarita glasses w/ a bottle of the already made margarita mix from costco...you could put it in a cute container if you have enough money left.
Just a couple of ideas that I wish I would have won at our parties...good luck. :)
