What do you get a man for Secret Santa?

Something he will use rather than display: a party game for the next night in, wireless earbuds or a charger, a good shaving or hair product, a fragrance mini, a quality notebook. Practical and a bit better than he would buy himself.

What is a good Secret Santa gift for a male coworker?

Keep it neutral and useful: a card game the team can play, a desk gadget, a nice coffee or snack set, a phone accessory. Avoid clothes and anything that needs a size.

How do I find out what he wants without asking?

Use a Secret Santa app with wishlists. In a Gifthax exchange everyone can add a few things they would like, the person who drew them sees the list, and nobody finds out who is buying for whom.

Secret Santa gifts for him

Men are the hardest Secret Santa to buy for. Ask what he wants and the answer is "nothing, honestly", which is how a desk gets a fourth novelty mug.

Below are things men actually use, all under £30 in the UK today: a card or party game, small tech, a good grooming product, a fragrance mini, something for the desk. Real prices, in stock, checked when this page was built.

If you are organising the office or the friends' draw, Gifthax is a free Secret Santa app: it draws the names, keeps them secret and lets everyone add a wishlist, so "nothing, honestly" turns into an actual list.
