What is a good "office gift" to bring back from WD

Post by kcookiebaker » Apr Sat 17, 2010 3:12 pm

Nothing too expensive, has to look thoughtful?
Needs to stay under or around $20.

You may have problem with that last criteria.

I agree with momeja. Candy or some sort of food product is always a safe bet.

A mug is always safe for a co-worker. Plus, they are between $15-$20. And they make about a million different styles/characters.

I would have to suggest candy or food too ~ people can share and who doesn't love a Disney treat? $20 might not buy you much though. I remember buying a little bag of taffy for co-workers several years ago and it was almost $10 for a little teeny-tiny bag!

Go to the The Disney Character store at the outlet mall You could get something for the whole office and not spend 20 bucks!

If the office likes coffee they sell a Disney brand in a big blue tin. My dad loves it.

You can also pick up a lot of stationery, pens, pencils, and other little office-y things for under $20 if you look around.

Thank you for some great ideas...I think the dandy candy is going to be the solution. I remember now seeing something in Mickey icon shapes...again, thank you.

There you go, or even better, save lots of Disney napkins, buy a huge bag of pretzels from your local warehouse club, dump them in a big bowl and set the napkins nearby - voila - Disney office treat for under $5!

If it is for a single person to can always get them a small snow globe or little Mickey statue. If it is for the whole office then the food idea seems best.

Also definitely look at the outlet store. It can save you a lot!

good ideas everyone

depending on the person and how they like Disney.

plush key chain or a special key chain
Christmas ornament (you can never plan too early)
Mickey's chocolate covered pretzels are fabulous
antenna toppers
vinylmation character
small glass blown character
a trading pin that has a meaning to the person
tennis balls or golf balls if they play
and of course, CANDY
