Ask the organizer, so you don't come in far under everyone else. - **Choose useful over clever.** Something they use every day at their desk or in their kitchen gets remembered. Novelty wears off fast. - **Order early.** Gift sets and bigger items can take longer to arrive. Order at least a week before the exchange. ## FAQ ### What can you get for a $50 Secret Santa? Fifty dollars covers small speakers, craft kits, bigger building sets and good drinkware. Put the whole budget into one thing they'll keep. ### Is $50 too much for a coworker Secret Santa? Not if everyone agreed to it. Some teams pick $50 so each person gets one quality item; others stay at $25 so no one feels stretched. Go with the group's number, and spend close to it. ### What do you get a coworker you don't know well? Go for something useful and easy to like: a nice mug or tumbler, a desk gadget, a card game or a cozy lamp. Skip clothes, strong scents and anything too personal. ### Are these prices current? Not always. You're seeing each store's price from the last time we checked, and stores change prices and stock often. You'll see the final price, shipping and tax at checkout. ## More - [Secret Santa 101: how to run one](https://staging.giftlist.com/blog/secret-santa-101-free-name-draw-50-gift-ideas-under-25) - [Run your office Secret Santa on GiftList](https://staging.giftlist.com/office-secret-santa) - [Secret Santa name generator](https://staging.giftlist.com/tools/secret-santa-generator) - [White elephant gift ideas](https://staging.giftlist.com/gift-ideas/white-elephant) - [Gifts for your boss](https://staging.giftlist.com/gift-ideas/gifts-for-boss) - [Gifts for your team](https://staging.giftlist.com/gift-ideas/gifts-for-employees) - [All gift ideas](https://staging.giftlist.com/gift-ideas) --- We start with what people are adding to their GiftList lists, plus our team's picks, then narrow it down to your budget.
