Cozy & Self-Care
Under $10
For the office draw with a tiny limit. These still look like you put some thought into it.
This one looks way more expensive than it is. A ribbed red glass Christmas tree with a candy cane scented candle inside, and once the wax is gone it's still pretty sitting on a shelf. Wrap it in tissue, because that glass is the whole point.
Better Homes & Gardens Glass Christmas Tree Candle
You get TWO pink Santa mugs for under $10, which means one for them and one for you. I won't tell. Tuck in a few hot cocoa packets and it looks like a whole gift basket.
Holiday Time Pink Santa Mugs, Set of 2
Nobody has ever been mad about getting good fuzzy socks. These are double layered, so they're thick enough for a cold kitchen floor in the morning. Three pairs for under $10, and there are a bunch of color sets on the same page.
Joyspun Double Layer Lounge Socks, 3 Pack
Under $15
The sweet spot. Enough to get something they'll actually use, and nobody's going to feel like they got shortchanged.
The little waffle maker everybody ends up loving. It's tiny, heats up fast, and makes one 4-inch waffle at a time, which is somehow way more fun than it sounds. Price changes by color, and the rainbow print has been the deal, so check the color befor...
Dash Mini Waffle Maker, Rainbow Print
A little Bluetooth speaker with a carry strap is a gift that works for literally anybody: the shower singer, the porch sitter, the guy in the garage. It's Walmart's own onn brand, and it's been going out the door fast at this price.

Six little travel-size goodies in one box: hand cream, foot cream, cuticle cream, hand salve and lip balm. It comes ready to give, so you don't even have to fight with wrapping paper. A safe bet for the coworker whose name you had to look up.
Burt's Bees Tips & Toes Gift Set
Under $25
The most common limit, and where you can get something that looks like it cost way more than it did.
Same big-handle-and-straw look as the fancy name-brand tumbler, for a fraction of the price. Fill it with Dr Pepper and ice in the morning and it's still cold after lunch. It comes in a few colors on the same page, so pick one that fits your person.
Ozark Trail 40 oz Tumbler with Handle
Cordless lamps are everywhere right now, and this one looks like it came from a pricey home store. Ribbed ceramic base, rattan shade, and it charges with a USB-C cord, so it can sit on a bookshelf or a bar cart with no ugly cord hanging down. A grown...
Better Homes & Gardens Rechargeable Cordless Accent Lamp
Hear me out: a can opener that sits on top of the can and does the whole job by itself. It's the kind of gift people don't know they want until they open it, and the chocolate color with the gold B looks too nice to stick in a drawer. It's on preorde...
Beautiful by Drew Barrymore Hands-Free Electric Can Opener
Funny (But Office-Safe)
Gets a laugh when they open it, and nobody has to explain anything to HR. Good for coworkers you don't know all that well.
It's a soft throw blanket printed to look exactly like a giant flour tortilla, so the person who opens it gets to become a burrito. Everybody laughs, and then everybody wants to try it. There are ramen and shark versions on the same page too.
Burrito Tortilla Throw Blanket
The box alone gets a laugh, and the questions are the ridiculous kind that make a quiet room loud real fast. It's clean enough for an office party, so open it right there at the exchange and play a round. You'll learn way too much about your coworker...
Would You Rather? The Game
A goose in a Santa hat and a red scarf, and his neck is the handle. That's it. That's the gift. Under $7, and it's the one everybody at the exchange will be trying to steal.
Holiday Time Christmas Goose Mug
Cozy & Self-Care
When you drew somebody you barely know, you can't go wrong with cozy. Everybody likes warm feet and a good soak.
This throw looks like it belongs in a boutique, with soft cream faux fur and pretty stripes running through it. It comes rolled up and tied, so it's basically pre-wrapped. Toss a bow on it and you're done. Other colors are on the same page if cream i...
Mainstays Striped Faux Fur Throw Blanket
That chunky platform slipper look everybody's wearing to run errands, for under $15. Chestnut faux suede with fuzzy lining, and they're a Walmart best seller for a reason. Sneak a peek at their shoe size first, because they'll want to live in these.
Joyspun Platform Clog Slippers
Five lavender goodies in a gift box: Epsom salt soak, body wash, bath oil and more. December wears everybody out, so this one basically says go take a long bath, you've earned it. It's about $10, so it works for almost any limit.
