    Anyone else have office christmas parties coming up? We have one, and we're supposed to bring an inexpensive gift for a gift exchange. Real gifts, not gag stuff. Alcohol is not allowed. :mad:

    Any suggestions?

    Movie bucks...
    Mall Gift Certificates...
    Dinner gift certificates...

    Unless you know who you are specifically buying for and what they specifically like, anything specific is a crap shoot at best.

    Excellent suggestion. Keep the winners coming people. :p

    Gift card's a nice idea, and one I hadn't considered.

    I buy them every Tuesday when they come out so I never pay full price. Generally, if you go into a store and are looking at prices on CD's, the vast majority of what you look at are going to be in the $19.99 price range.

    If he's an "Office Space" fan, Fry's is selling the Swingline 747 stapler in red (the same one Milton used) for under $20.

    GREAT COLLECTOR'S ITEM!
