Whats a great summer gift for around $5?
I need to buy 40 gifts for an employee party at $5 each. Any good ideas?
Answers:
Go to a dollar store and purchase (40 )$ 1.00 colorful umbrellas and tie around each umbrella with brightly neon ribbons or at a fabric store purchase colorful Taffeta and make strips to add around hats, unbrellas and lotions. Add 1-2 lotto tickets to each gift item with the dangling ribbons ,for a chance to help brighten those rainy summer days ahead.
If the dollar store doesn't have that many umbrellas, purchase what they do have the rest can be a straw beach hats, visors with tickets placed in the band part of it, or a pairs of sunglasses with tickets attached, Sun Lotion wrapped in taffeta or dangling ribbon with tickets.
Anyway you choose you can mix the gifts which would be fun , let's employees have a final chance if so desired to make a deal with another employee and exchange gift item with unused tickets for what they hope to be a better deal ,which also adds to the fun!
it depends on who you work with. but starbucks giftcards or a giftcard to a local coffee house or bistro always work well. if you cant get those a good idea for woman is beauty products. you can get great giftboxes of lipgloss from eyeslipsface.com. hope i helped.

Go to the $ store and get fun little summer stuff like pool stuff, a cool margarits glass or even a tiki glass! Just do fun stuff everyone can use!!!

For women...run to claires and pick them up a pair of earrings...about $3.50 a pair. For men, and women who don't like earrings, try $5 giftcards, or little keychains or something like that.
Get gift cards for places to eat like
mcdonalds
a deli
panda express
fresh choice
sizzler
My supervisor gave scratch lottery tickets at Christmas. Everyone loved them! Easy and not gender specific.
Go get a bunch of different kinds of BBQ sauce, marinade, rubs and add in a chefmate brush, Target sells them in a set of 3 for 2.00. Tie the brush on to the sauce. You could also go to a dollar store and get a cute kitchen towel to wrap it in.
You can go to the dollarstore or Wal-Mart or any store along those lines and grab some cheap little glasses, and put in things such as little candies, keychains, pencils/pens, etc, and top with little unmbrellas and wrap them all up in little plastic bags and tie with a ribbon.. The amount should be around 5 dollars or less a person! ( varying on what you buy to put in and how much, etc. )
sunglasses
lip balb
sun visor
certificate form macdonald's,dairy queen, etc.
wine coolers
Do you have a Ben & Jerry's scoop shop, or other ice cream shop in your area? $5 gift certificates to an ice cream shop would make a great summer gift!

You can buy those candles that keep the bugs away...those are great for the backyard and very cheap....
$5 gift cards are nice and easy. Especially if they are for a universally enjoyed thing like Starbuck's or a book store.
