Christmas

Yes, the Halloween posting is mine, too. Can you tell the holidays are already stressing me out?
I have to come up with an idea (as I do every year) for Christmas gifts for the entire company -- $40/person, about 210 people.
Of course, there are companies who want to put our logo on everything from coffee mugs to blankets. But do any of you have any good, or original, or well received ideas?

Alternatively, there are several catalogue companies that put together seasonal baskets fairly inexpensively that always look impressive.
I've gone the gift certificate route about every other year, and this year I have to do something else.
Maybe I can just get myself the Coach card holder (for a job well done, once I get it done)!
It's so hard to please everybody - for $40 I'd go with gift certificates. Amex sells gift cheques which have worked well for me in the past, and they can be used anywhere, as they are treated like travellers cheques. Maybe you could give a $20 gift cheque and something along with it. A nicer picture frame with the logo? Maybe the guys out there will disagree, but I think picture frames seem to work for both genders. If your staff has been around for a while, they tend to get tired of logo wear, paper weights and candy dishes.
Hope this helps!
I haven't gotten halloween over with yet. I can't think about Thanksgiving or Christmas.
The company's name is CPS Corporation and their number is 615-794-8000. The person who handled the program was named Tony Van Belkam and I know he's still there.

Every year, the case is passed to another as a gift, the bottle re-opened and passed around. There's still about half a case left unopened.
Thunderbird doesn't age well, especially when it's been open for a year or two. There are a lot of "bitter beer faces" at my parents' house on Christmas eve!
"What's the word? THUNDERBIRD! What's the price? Fifty TWICE!"
"50 twice" is more poetic, don't you think? And Thunderbird is a very poetic beverage. x;-)
