Cheery choices come cheap

It's fraught with danger (buying something that offends) and difficulty (it's hard to find something nice within the $5 or $10 limit).

Here are a few ideas we've picked up from the net that are cheap, cheerful and don't necessitate a trip to the shops.

What better way to surprise your KK than with their favourite bottle of wine encased in a Santa bottle decoration.

Then again, be in your colleague's thoughts all year with a bear phone holder.

A handmade A6 notebook is practical and pretty while a little pig in a pot is perfect for the colleague who has everything except, well, a pig in a pot.

Then of course they can sit back and smell the roses (or any other flower) without venturing out into the summer heat thanks to your very thoughtful gift of aroma sticks.

Morning and afternoon tea will always raise a laugh around the office when your KK pulls out their bear mug with lid. (There are also cats, frogs and pigs.)

For the office's super organiser or the super disorganised, an elephant desk set will add some fun to the daily (or yearly) tidy-up.

There's no better way to get into the Christmas spirit than by dressing up.

A reindeer headband will have the whole office smiling right up to Easter.

We've saved the best for last: these items are all $2.80.
