After close friends and family, office colleagues are probably one set of people who we spend the maximum time with. And giving good gifts to colleagues, well within our budgets, can be quite a challenge. The gifts have to be practical, not too sentimental, not too personal, and not cheap quality at all.
Here’s my pick of top 10 gifts under $25 that you can give to colleagues and watch them smile from ear to ear!
