The office Secret Santa tradition

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

I got someone a table bell with "shut the **** up" written on it. That will do the trick for the person in question at my work.

Completely.

it is completely pointless....

The one positive I can see is that I can put down a playstation online membership and when I get it tell the other half its a secret santa gift and not my doing.

I hope this is a joke and you're not really policed on spending £10 of your own money on yourself.

You can't go wrong with inflatable Jesus:

Loved the customer reviews on that

"Had one of these but it got punctured (holes in hands and feet), put it in the bin and 3 days later it was fully inflated and floated up into the sky, never to be seen again."

Of course it is

I have to purchase for the office drunk, who has hygiene issues and his trousers are permanently ripped.

He is also one of these people, who at any company do is rinsing the bar and telling everyone as he does this, that he is making sure he gets his share.

So current options for the £10 I have for him are;

1. As much rubbish Lidl booze that a tenner gets (white cider being a staple here as he hates the stuff).
2. £10 worth of deodorant and Persil tablets.
3. A charity shop run of clothes.

Think of the hours of fun if this was presented in your local police station

I challenge you to get all 3 but only allowed to spend £10... So 99p tesco own deodorant / charity shop clothes / the rankest bottle of wine you can find... Go!

We had a debate earlier in the year in our office about how pointless the monarchy was and my secret Santa recipient was particularly vociferous.

How he will simply love this Kate Middleton clock.

£5 pretty much buys you a flat anywhere North of Leicester, doesn't it? Splash out - buy him a mansion in Middlesbrough.

Your clearly out of touch on Middlesbrough house prices..............................£5 will buy you...............ALL OF MIDDLESBROUGH!!

A couple of bags of pea shingle would be amusing.

It wasn't me who gave it, but a Nell McAndrew exercise DVD wasn't gratefully received last year. ..in fact, it was met with tears, upset and an early departure from the Albion Comedy Lunch!

I despise this tradition. I used to buy serious presents for people and always seemed to end up with tat or a 'joke' gift.

Two of the worst were a Brittania airways complimentary in flight wash bag and last year's Borat mankini.

Anyway, this year I've decided if you can't beat them, join them. I had the good fortune of drawing the name of an Arsenal fan who is going to be the lucky recipient if this:

 

[Chicken Run]

I went completely left field this year, perhaps a little risqué, I bought my nominated lady a dirty great big rubber stress cock!
