EDIT: Some of you misunderstood, this gift exchange is random. i.e. I'm getting a single gift. I don't know who will receive my gift, and likewise don't know who will be gifting me something. Another idea: portable charger / board game?

Hello SG! I need some opinions on a gift for Christmas gift exchange at my workplace. The budget is between $15-20 in my local currency, which is probably about USD10-15. There are people of all ages working there, from 17/18 to 60-odd, a good mix of locals and foreigners. I want to give something nice, not something that the recipient will throw away or never touch again. Restrictions: no foodstuff allowed.

Currently I am considering an adult coloring book, since that seems to be the thing these days... Never understood its popularity though. What do you think? Any better ideas? I will probably be getting it on Tuesday, when I'm free.


TL;DR? Christmas gift idea, tyvm.

Would you be happy to receive an adult coloring book?

I hear there was anything like coloring books for adults just now. o.O And tbh it sounds like the worst gift if the person can actually draw; it would make me feel mentally retarded somehow, considering I was using these coloring books when I was 3-4.

Tbh the rule that you don't know who you are gifting to is the most stupid of all. It's not so easy to pick a gift that will be great for men and women from teen aged to pre-pension people. It's virtually impossible tbh... At least if you knew the age, it would be so much better. Picking up the best gift always goes hand in hand with it being personalized, and in this case that won't work. I'd suggest to enter a random large bookstore or gift store and look at the available gifts and just make a pick based on your price range. Things to play with like this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rW33b5U8dHY would be fun for most people and you can consider something similar. A nice picture jigsaw works as well.

At first i thought about a warm unisex scarf, but then I saw location. And it's too personal gift =_=
Antistress office kit, for example, Just lots of small stuff to get rid of stress. Stress ball, penny, candy. Any shiny piece of fun.
