Did you manage to pick the only person in the office you don’t know, and now you’re panicking? Us too! 

And so has everyone.

But, never fear – here are 13 gifts you can buy that even the office grump will love.

1. These two from Tiger 

For those of you who haven’t heard of Tiger (where have you been hiding?) it’s basically a city centre Ikea and can be descried as both ‘cheap and cheerful’ and ‘weird and wonderful’. Kris Kindle heaven. 

You’re guaranteed at least two, if not three, items for under a tenner.

So how about this Russian Roulette shot glass AND this Santa head basket game? One for when office work gets too much, and one to celebrate when you kill it in work. Sorted.

4. These treats from The Body Shop

Lads, have you gotten a girl you barely know in the office Kris Kindle and you haven’t a notion of what to get her?

Stroll down to The Body Shop and pick up either a lip balm, a hand salve or a body butter. They smell incredible, won’t set you back more than €10, won’t be taken as a hint (like soap or shower gel would be) and you’ll be surrounded by sweet scents in work come the new year. Winning.

5. The new Ross O’Carroll-Kelly book from Easons 

Guaranteed to either give them a laugh, or give them a top-quality present to re-gift…
