If, so even the ones you don't like?

Personally, I give something to everyone in my department, regardless of our personal relationship. To me the season isnt about playing favorites, its about giving. I would give to others outside my department, but dont have to money. Makes me feel bad when I get something from someone I didnt get anything for

We pull names for the secret Santa game.
We all get along pretty well in this office, but this year I did get the name of somebody who isn't my favorite person and vice versa. I got her some good stuff, though: Crate and Barrel Christmas ornaments. She loved them. Who knows? Maybe this will help improve our work relationship.

Yes, inexpensive gifts like candy, and to my friends I gave Bath & Body Works foaming hand soap. The co-workers I don't like just got a Christmas card or nothing at all. If they really wanted something then they should be a little nicer. But then again, maybe I'm not someone they want to get to know. Either way no harm no foul. They don't get me anything so I don't get them anything. Good luck with your gift giving this year!

I now only give to select ones. 4 out of 8. i do keep some extra "goodies" in my desk with a box and a blank nametag though just in case i need extras.
For guys, sears has tool sets for ~$5 around thanksgiving.
For girls, Bath and body works has a big sale after Christmas so I buy a few lotion bottles.

I give gifts to friends with whom I have a personal relationship outside of work. Other than that, I buy pizza for the whole office for lunch one day the week before Christmas, and that's that.

which you should get a number of those unique styles of sausages that they positioned out each twelve months at Christmastime although however of procuring the applications that they sell for the reason that those are high priced extremely often, which you're able to have the potential to get your very own from the deli at your community keep, positioned some remarkable cheeses with it, probable some sweets or selfmade cookies, nuts and then make up a basket for each guy or woman. Wrap them up in crimson and green cellophane.

We draw names, set a $ limit and ask them to write down 3 things they would like. It just gets to be so ridiculous to try and buy for everybody. This way we all end up with 1 gift of our choice.

Yes, give everyone a gift. Even if you don't like them. They will work better, and maybe later on you guys will like each other and become more friendly.

I baked a bunch of Christmas cookies and put together individual holiday plates for those in my area - tied with a bow and card.
