    Anyone else have office christmas parties coming up? We have one, and we're supposed to bring an inexpensive gift for a gift exchange. Real gifts, not gag stuff. Alcohol is not allowed. :mad:

    Any suggestions?

    Movie bucks...
    Mall Gift Certificates...
    Dinner gift certificates...

    Unless you know who you are specifically buying for and what they specifically like, anything specific is a crap shoot at best.

    Gift card's a nice idea, and one I hadn't considered.

    Take a ream of paper from the office and wrap it up.

    Versatile
    Easy to use
    No assembly required
    Nothing to plug in
    Safe (except for the ocassional paper cut)

    best of all, it's free!

    I buy them every Tuesday when they come out so I never pay full price. Generally, if you go into a store and are looking at prices on CD's, the vast majority of what you look at are going to be in the $19.99 price range.

    If he's an "Office Space" fan, Fry's is selling the Swingline 747 stapler in red (the same one Milton used) for under $20.

    GREAT COLLECTOR'S ITEM!
