Gifts for Your Co-Workers, All Under $20
They are the people you probably spend most of your time with. Maybe so much time that you haven’t had the chance to go out and get them a token of appreciation for Christmas. Not to worry- we have a round-up of the best gifts for co-workers. We picked out all gifts from stores that are right here in Salt Lake City. And even better? They are all under $20.
Peppermint Bark
The cool flavor and crunch of candy canes mingle with rich dark chocolate and sweet white confection in this old-fashioned treat. Reusable gift box is tied with a bow of ornamental ribbon and makes a perfect hostess gift. ($9.97, on sale from $24.95, Crate and Barrel, Fashion Place Mall, 6207 S. State St.)
Set of Six Record Coasters
Bearing record labels from earlier times, vintage records are cut down to make a coaster of the original label, each bearing its own unique musical artist and song from past eras. A warm, nostalgic accent for the bar or den. ($19.95, Crate and Barrel.)
Same Day 12 Month Photo Calendar
The 8×11 Same Day 12 Month Photo Calendar is an innovative way to display your favorite photos. Personalize your very own photo calendar with your favorite family photos, wedding photos, pet photos, vacation shots, and more. Add a personal touch to this calendar by customizing those photos with your favorite captions, messages, and more. You can even personalize this 12-month photo calendar with your own texts, sayings, or images indicating special dates, holidays, birthdays and much more. Available for same day pickup. ($12 from Wal-Mart, locations across Utah.)
Composition Pen and Pencil
Features a custom engraved pen and pencil. Mechanical pencil is great for precision writing. Features a high-gloss finish and stylish, silver accents, with patented lathe lines around each barrel. ($8.29, Office Depot Office Max, locations across Utah.)
Tech-friendly Gloves
If your co-worker never stops tweeting, help your colleague get through the winter in style without sacrificing his or her fingers to the cold. These touch screen-compatible gloves should just do the trick, and they come in five different colors: black, gray, navy, pink and citrus. ($14, West Elm, City Creek Center, 51 S. Main St.)
To-Do List Mug
Everyone in your office already runs on coffee, but this mug makes even your co-worker’s third coffee break of the day productive. Designed to look like a yellow notepad with a dry erase marker included, this mug is more than just a vessel for caffeinated beverages — it’s a portable place for your co-worker to organize his or her daily tasks. ($12.95, Pier 1, locations across Utah.)
[one_fourth]
Cubicles are boring, but this teakwood tree trunk planter will liven up your co-worker’s desk, and it’s certainly more interesting than a typical planter. This is a great gift for the co-worker with a green thumb. (Anthropologie, $16, City Creek Center, 50 S. Main St.)
Starbucks Gift Card
It’s the one gift with which you can never go wrong. Treat your co-workers to an array of lattes, coffees and teas of their choosing. (Starbucks, varying amounts, locations across Utah.)
