Secret friend exchange

[poe]

We’re doing a secret friend exchange at work. But since we’re all working from home it’s more virtual. I do have a card I thought I’d send in the mail. I need two more ideas. Any suggestions? I also don’t want to spend a ton of money.

I need more details. Do you know who you're gifting to? What is the purpose of this? To provide cheer? To build work relationships?

I think to encourage morale. I’m a teacher and it’s my vp.

Is there a spending cap? Is your school doing remote learning? If so, I would lean into that. A bag of coffee or tea. An insulated mug. A plant/arrangement from a local nursery/florist.

I looked on Pinterest quick and thought this was cute.

Gift cards to local shops?
*usually not a fan of gift cards, but now I like them to help support local places.

We did this, too. I’ve gotten a succulent with a note that said “distance learning succs”, and as box of Cheryls cookies. Cheryl’s came with a big label that said who sent it, but I love their cookies so much I didn’t care.
