You can never go wrong with chocolate.

I'm giving my secret Santa a hot sauce variety pack. Whenever we get Mexican food catered he drowns his food in hot sauce so I think it will go over well.

Not sure since we haven't gotten our names and likes yet. The last time I had someone I gave her something each day. Her favorite candy, a mug with her type of dog on it and some specialty teas.

Our group of six are exchanging. We each have to buy our person a Tervis Tumbler. We are putting little gifts in it and the entire gift needs to stay at around 25.00. I made a custom 16 oz cup with a saying my pick uses all the time. We use them every day for hot or cold and decided we each wanted another to add to our collection and this was a fun way to do it.

Our group of 4 are exchanging and I decided against candy/chocolate owing to how much of that we all receive this time of year. I regift candy every year because usually I end the season with 4-6 boxes of nice chocolate.
I gave my boss a pair of earrings she had seen on me and raved over, one coworker a necklace of a style I thought she would like, and my other coworker fancy tea in a pretty mug.

Usually a gift card to a place I know they like: Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts or a lunch place. I'll put it in a small stocking or attach it to a movie sized candy that they like.

We have a limit of $15. I'm buying for my boss in Kris Kringle, which I was hoping for because I had something in mind for her. I was going to make her a little album for her new baby grand daughter. I did get her, but now I'm worried that (1) she won't like a hand made gift, and (2) I won't get it finished in time. I haven't scrapped in years!!
ETA: If I do make the album it will be more than $15 worth, but seeing that I'm going to use my stash it doesn't feel like I'm going over.

We're doing the Secret Santa thing for the first time this year. Our limit is $20. I got one of the new guys who I don't even know, but figured a fleece throw (from the Kohl's Black Friday sale) would be good. Now, 2 weeks after they say we're doing the SS thing, they decide to set a price limit and get gift ideas from everyone. Big sigh. On the plus side, I didn't mind doing an actual list. I put some specific Yankee Candle and B&BW scents/items on there (like the wall plug-ins that I've wanted but never buy for myself), plus a few other things (like a new Wilson 9x13 pan). ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg) So we'll see how this goes. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/5645536/images/MNrJDkDuSwqIMVw33MdD.jpg)

We are doing secret Santa and next week are to give a gift Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday for $1 - $2 each and Thursday a gift for $10. We all had to fill out a sheet with likes. Based on what the gal that I picked said, she is getting chocolate in a mason Jar, 2 coasters I'm making with her favorite college, two stemless wine glasses that I paid $1 for each and I'm going to etch her initials in them and on the last day, I'm going to give her a Camelback sports cup that is personalized to her in vinyl. The low $ makes it hard, I think!
