What is an appropriate gift for a coworker?

Small, useful and impersonal in the good sense: a hand cream, a candle, a good pen, a desk game, snacks or coffee. Avoid fragrance, clothing and anything that assumes a taste or a size.

How much should you spend on a colleague?

$5–15 for a team exchange, $15–25 for someone you work closely with, and never so much that it is awkward to receive. If there is a limit, keep to it exactly.

How do you organize an office Secret Santa?

Create an exchange on Gifthax, share one link on the team chat, and everyone who joins is drawn a name automatically — hidden from everyone else, organizer included. Add a budget so nobody guesses.

Gifts for coworkers and colleagues

The colleague gift has one rule: not too personal. Skincare is fine; perfume is not. A game for the office is fine; jewelry is a conversation with HR.

Everything here passes that rule at $5–25 — hand and bath things, a candle, a desk game, stationery people actually use, a small self-care set. Real US prices, in stock.

For a team: run one exchange instead of twelve separate gifts. Gifthax draws the names and gives everyone a place to say what they would like, so nobody gets a third mug.
