Money for Christmas? Yuk!
Please do not give him money or a coupon, that is such a distant thing for a Christmas gift!!! Horrible suggestion!!!
Since you're all women, needing him to do the man's job, stay in that line and give him something food/drink.
My suggestion: a small basket with a Christmas cake / cookies and a bottle of wine, plus a nice Christmas card.
Merry Christmas!

I would get him an assorted pack of specialty beers if you think he is a beer man. Most men are pretty simple in regards to gifts. Beer or wine. Nuts or snaks. Gift cards to Home Depot, etc. I would stay away from anything like clothes, jewelry, or anything too personal. Go with something practical. I am sure he will appreciate it.

I'd get him a gift certificate to a restaurant he likes or something like a tray of cookies or whatever. Or two movie gift passes, those work also.

Honestly I would get him either a gift certificate to his favorite place to go (and then offer to take him if he's single and cute) or offer him a Christmas bonus AFTER you invite him to a home cooked meal with the group (that is if he doesn't have family that he's spending the holidays with)

Gift Card - Home Depot or Walmart.

Probably something that he wouldn't get for himself. Invite him to a homemade meal, bake him some cookies, etc.

Perhaps a nice tin of biscuits, or a bottle of wine (if he likes that sort of thing).
Does he smoke? Big cigar.

A gift certificate. Can't go wrong.

A wallet with a gift card in it?
