    Secret Santa for Work

    OK so work has a secret santa during which you have $10.00 to buy someone a gift. The name are drawn out of a hat.

    So I got a guy (who are hard to buy for at the best of times).

    Do you think this is a sucky present:-

    Instead of buying some $10.00 plastic thing that will be laughed at and thrown away Im thinking of being a guardian angel for the RSPCA - I would make a donation in the name of my SS and they send me a little certifiacte by e-mail which I would print out and stick in a card. Then on the 25th of January 2010 there is a web site you can go to and it gives you the information of the animal that you sposored over the xmas holidays.

    What would you think if you got something like this from SS.

    really depends on the guy. My DH would love something like that. my dad would think it a load of rubbish! it's so hard to know what to do without knowing the attitude of the guy kwim?

    That's hard. A JB-HiFi voucher never goes astray with guys it seems. That's if you have one near you.

    Unfourtunately I don't have a JB Hifi (?) near me.

    Sorry I should have mentioned that the reason I picked RSPCA is because I know that his dog is an RSPCA rescue dog. I might spend a little more and make the donation and also get him one of those Chirstmas lolly packs

    Thanks

    What a fantastic idea! The fact that he bought an RSPCA rescue dog indicates to me that he'd like this sort of present.
