Christmas is almost here. ‘Tis the season to be generous and forgiving. And what better way to be generous than to buy gifts for your colleagues? People who you see 9 hours a day, 5 days a week? It is a common tradition for offices to do Secret Santas or a “not so secret” gift exchanging amongst your fellow colleagues.

Now, there’s obviously a budget set for the gifts and often times, many people do not abide by the rules. You know what I’m talking about.
