The entire office staff (it's a small company - maybe 30 people) and their spouses are all invited to my boss' house tonight for a party. It was sort of last minute (about a week's notice) and the invitation says not to bring any food or drink, as they have it covered. However, as I was talking to others in the office, we feel bad going to someone's house and not bringing anything at all. I need some suggestions on what to bring!

A small gift basket makes a lovely hostess gift...perhaps include a couple of fancy soaps and monogrammed hand-towel (doesn't have to be expensive.) Or bring something for them for after the party...bring them a pound of nice coffee or a box of chocolates. This is another case of "it's the thought that counts."

Talk to all your office buds and go in on something together as a thank you after the party.
Flowers, gift basket... something of that nature.

A nice bottle of wine. You can get a decent one for $30-40. Go to a Liquor Market (rather than a liquor store) if you can, they can help you pick a nice one in your price range.

Maybe bring a bouquet of flowers, they always make a nice compliment for a table :)

Bring a nice plant or centerpiece.
