21_Secret_Santa_Gifts.png

They see you when you’re slacking. They know when you come in late. They know if you’ve been bad or good so be good for your work’s Secret Santa exchange.

But that’s not how the song – or the Secret Santa exchange – really goes … 

You spend all day with your coworkers, but come time for your annual gift exchange, you’re stuck trying to figure out exactly what Suzie will want that’s also in your price range.

We want to help. We’ve compiled a list of awesome gifts that are bound to meet all different budgets and personality types. From hot sauce kits to leather mouse pads, this roundup should take some of the stress out of your shopping experience. 

20 Secret Santa Gifts for Your Coworkers

$10 and Under

1) Toaster Grilled Cheese Bags

Price: $9.99

While almost every office has a toaster, few have a stovetop. This rules fresh, delicious grilled cheese off the list of lunch options … or does it? When you give the gift of toaster grilled cheese bags, your recipient can toast up the perfect sandwich in minutes. The reusable, Teflon-coated bags can also be used for heating up other foods like pastries and leftover pizza. 

Got a gluten-free coworker? They can even protect their food from cross contamination using these handy bags.

Nothing beats a great pair of socks, am I right? Not only does everyone need them, but also there is such a wide variety of options available online that you’re bound to find a pair for any and every personality. 

Know of a few pizza lovers in the office? This pepperoni-clad pair would make the perfect gift.
