Hi

Ideas needed for a Secret Santa gift for a colleague please, who I may have a crush on from afar.

Male, mid forties ish, erm, those are the parameters.

Was thinking nice mug, nice chocolates and fluffy socks for at home but is that boring??

Don’t want to go down the chocolates and/or alcohol only route.

What's your budget?

You can get some nice little aftershave gift sets costing between £20 - £30 (the ones with the different scents from the same brand if you know what I mean?) you might be able to grab a black friday/cyber Monday deal.

Some toiletries or pyjama set perhaps?

Maybe a book of walks around the local area. As you have a bit of a crush, you could innocently say "Oh that looks interesting. I'm always looking for new routes to explore" Surely he will have to suggest you accompany him and....
It's a date!

Thanks Smile.

The budget is low - £5 - but I could spend up to 10 ish.

So the aftershave might be out and maybe that’s a really personal kind of gift / not everyone wears it?

I like the book of walks idea Grin. Sadly I don’t think I’m on his radar as I am 7 / 8 years older - but it’s a nice thought. He’s more than likely attached in any case.

Also - where I work it’s possible to hardly come across some people for weeks.

I might get a woman a really nice candle, but not sure blokes are as into them?

At the moment I am going for a nice mug, chocolate truffles, and nice herbal tea??

It’s really not that important I know!!
