For a female coworker, age is between 40-50. I'd like to get something under $25. She got me 2 cofee mugs with 4 flavored hot chocolate packages. I was thinking about doing a gift basket but it seems like you can only buy them online (Which I don't want to do).

Why don't you just buy a Christmas tin and fill it with homebaked cookies (from a mix or roll, no one will know)! Also, if you have a Sam's Club, they have Godiva chocolate gift sets but I'm not sure of the price. The only thing about using a lotion/bath gift set from Walmart is that some people don't like how strong the scents are...I was given a set and I returned it because I found it slightly nauseating! Another cute idea is to buy a basket/tin/etc and fill it with unflavored microwave popcorn and some different popcorn flavored salts and include a 5 or 10 dollar gift certificate to your local movie rental establishment (like Blockbuster). Then they have everything they need for a movie night!

Depending on how old she is...you could still just make her a gift basket. Go to Walmart or Target and buy a cheap basket. Target has an area called "See Spot Save" and you could find a Christmas bucket or basket for a dollar, then fill it will odds and ends...you can get a couple travel things like lotion, hand sanitizer, chapstick, bath stuff, buy some candy like individually wrapped M&Ms and such, maybe a couple cheap candles, a nice little notepad, a couple pens, maybe a couple packs of hot cider, hot chocolate, and tea...then you can either leave it open or put colored celophane (like the easter basket wrap) over it and a nice christmas bow. You could DEFINITELY keep it under $20, or right around that.

I would suggest going to the Hallmark store and finding something there. They have gifts for a decent price that most people don't see. If you want to do a gift basket you could go to a dollar store and get some bubble baths and shower gels and bath salts and candles then make your own basket and wrap in colored saran wrap and finish it off with a bow.

I say you get her 2 vibrators and a dildo. Put them nicely in a basket, with colorful plastic and give it to her as a gift. It's the only thing that can compare to 2 mugs and 4 hot chocolate packets....then again....maybe you should give her the mugs and packets back too, and tell her to stick them in the same place as the other gifts within the basket....What kind of crappy gift is 2 mugs and hot chocolate anyway.

How about a fruit basket - you can get those at any grocery store. Or how about a nice bag/box of pecans. Or you can put together your own gift basket. You can get a pretty red or gold charger, then stack items like a box of holiday candies, nuts, or goodies on it. Then sprinkle red or green confetti strips all around it. Then, cut a large piece of clear cellophane and place the charger on top of it. Pull the cellophane up around the charger and items and close it by tying a pretty bow.

Making your own basket is a great idea. You could even make a relaxation kit or something to that effect. Get bath salts, relaxation cd, soothing candles, eye mask, etc. and put them all in a basket. Best wishes.

Go to Walmart near the candles and home decor... They have little fountains there... probably like 8 in tall and 6 inches across... they look asian inspired, and they are around 15 dollars..... You jsut put water in them and plug them in.. they work good in the bathroom, or dining room.....
