Supply teachers - have you ever been gifted something inexpensive you've found really useful?

I'd like to get the supply teacher I've been working with for the last three months a small gift for the end of term. I wondered if anyone's ever been given something inexpensive that they've found really handy while on supply? Or any suggestions?

I don't really know very much about her to buy something more personal.

Thanks 🙂

A z-class tv sleb gifted me an out of date box of chocs. It was useful because I re-gifted it to the scouts Xmas tombola…

An academic year diary to write future work dates in.

I had a little homemade bag years ago as a supply teacher from a pupil and family.
I still use it.
I am not a teacher I just stepped in as supply as my DHs work asked.

A battery/ USB pencil sharpener. Loads on Amazon. As a supply teacher I wouldn’t be without it.
