I've got £10 to spend on a secret Santa present for a colleague. A woman in her 30s but we never work the same shift. I don't know her at all. What would you suggest?

Can you speak to someone on her shift for ideas?

I was very new last year and was bought a mug and coaster set last year, most people drink tea or coffee during the day.

I would like a new scarf, hand cream, chocolate etc.

Cake. Mascara. Hand-cream.

I wondered about a scarf but it looked like I was going to be well below the £10. I hate these secret Santa things. Maybe I wrap the scarf around a box of chocolates?

Find out if she is more of a wine girl or a chocolate girl. (Or, if you have enough on your plate just guess.) Buy a £5 box of chocolates or a £5 bottle of wine and then stick 5 lottery tickets to it.

I have done this a couple of times and it has gone down really well. And, this may be selfish but I always buy the same lottery ticket numbers for myself.

Or, if you could REALLY cope with your colleague winning £100 on you then you could stick scratchcards to it.
