HELP!!! Secret Santa

lostkat · 04-12-2008, 21:35

We're doing a secret santa at work and I've gone and picked my bloody boss. What the HELL am I going to get him???

He's 40ish and married with a family. He likes his drink, has great sense of humour and enjoys golf and mountain biking. That's about all I know really.

Any suggestions? Price limit is a fiver. I'm really stumped as to what to get.

tescos have some really good alcofrol/coffee/hot chocolate/cooking gifts - I managed to get a couple for £5 and a couple for £3

When do you need it by?

lostkat · 04-12-2008, 22:03

Next Friday.

Been looking at some witty golf books, but other than that I'm stumped. Good suggestions Sam, but he's not into cooking or anything and I'm not sure which alcohol he likes apart from beer. Will go have a look in Tesco over the weekend though.

This is really difficult!

Do you have a Wilkinsons near you? I picked up a golfing swing meter for £4. Is a little device that's meant to measure the force of a swing etc to perfect his golf swing. It looks like quite a funky little device too, got one for my Dad

Sainsburys have some nice whiskey minature/ glass sets for £5 a piece

different variations on each gift ie. golf/ hipflask etc

Just give him this but make sure he isn't pressing it when you are in the room talking to him

Last time I got my boss I bought him a rubber disc shooting gun thing. He loved it.
