Giving meaningful presents can brighten the season and remind your team how much they are valued. Whether it’s a small token of appreciation or a creative surprise, holiday shopping for coworkers can be a joyous and festive experience, filled with the excitement of finding the perfect gift to spread joy and happiness.
Shopping Local
The holidays are the perfect time to support various local businesses within your community. From picking up a bag of specialty coffee beans at the neighborhood coffee shop to browsing small gift stores for unique mugs or handmade goods, shopping local can positively impact your community and coworkers.
Instead of turning to big-box retailers, explore what’s nearby to discover one-of-a-kind gifts while supporting your local economy. Your choice to shop local benefits your coworkers and contributes to the growth and prosperity of your community, a responsibility we can all take pride in.
Personalized Gifts
From a keychain to a customized mug, making a small token of appreciation for your work friend is always fun. Rather than going all out for big-budget items, find some gifts you know would brighten their day.
Whether it includes an inexpensive planner and pen set or a mug for their desk, these small and helpful gifts can make a major contribution to their workspace. If you do not want to show “favoritism” with co-workers, getting mass bundles of gifts—like a mug set—gives everyone the same gift without breaking the bank.
Gift Cards
One of the most fail-proof presents for your co-workers is a gift card to a local restaurant or shop. This contribution to your community can benefit the shop and future shoppers.
Consider local cafés, small bookstores, and boutique/gift shops for your co-workers. However, it is essential not to put too much money on the card. Some of your fellow employees may not be comfortable exchanging such high monetary gifts.
