Best Swag or Office Gift

[Anonymous]

Trying to think of unique ideas for celebrating senior level promotions at a virtual corporate meeting.
Budget is $250/ per person?
We’d want everyone to have it to welcome the group.

Box of wine and cheese?
Select your own wine /champagne
Food delivery with cupcakes?
Branded duffel bag and gift card for virtual health classes/peloton

Alternatively- pay for a “cameo” appearance to welcome people?

Any thoughts? What’s really cool right now?!?

Definitely not the cameo appearance. Wine/cheese is nice but not everyone drinks. Gift card to something could work.

My favorite branded corporate gift was a really good power bank. I also liked the insulated water bottle, a good one that kept things cold all day.

The cameo is cringe

Agree with the power bank. I also use the umbrella I got a lot.

Will $250 still buy a Mont Blanc pen? Not “cool”, but very nice. I like the food delivery idea, particularly if there’s flexibility for each person to make their own selections. What about a gift certificate to Goldbelly?

DH got gift certificate to Ticketmaster type place for whatever show we want to see. Much appreciated. Food delivery is a nice idea too. Not a fan of logo items unless super high quality. Wine not a great idea bc not everyone drinks.

Best recent thank you speaker gift I received from a conference was gift certificates to pick out pints of ice cream and cookie dough that shipped to my house.

So great because I'm not a wine person and I feel like gifts are always alcohol related.

Goldbelly is a GREAT idea. Feels like a splurge, high-quality, and everyone can pick what they want.

Stainless steel bento boxes, eight of them able to be used by themselves or separately. Some coworkers use them to coral office supplies, others use it for their tech, and some use it for lunch

Goldbelly GC sounds like a good choice.

I’m jealous, in my line of work (teaching) I get socks and bic pens from my bosses 😁

[Anonymous]

I'd rather of champagne or wine than a $250 pen, water bottle, or cameo

My favorite gift — similar price range — was a pocket sized tool kit. I still have it, and I’ve genuinely appreciated it on more than one occasion.

My best gift so far was a Yeti travel mug.

Power banks are also useful.
