Inexpensive Gifts for Coworkers

Does your workplace do inexpensive holiday gift exchanges or Secret Santa? Sometimes it’s tricky to know what your coworker likes so you’re basically buying a gift for someone that you don’t know well. If not a gift card, glance around your coworkers’ desk for things they could use or take note of when they share information about them. These gifts are all under $20 and simple, but still show that you put in effort.
