Nice Gifts for Your Boss

Finding a gift for the person who seems to have everything is not an easy task. Luckily, retailers offer a plethora of items and gift cards to help ease shopping stress. If you know a little bit about your boss, it is easy to choose an appropriate and nice gift. Food gifts are always nice for the holidays, and everyone loves to receive gift cards because the cards allow for freedom of personal choice.

Gift Baskets

Gift baskets are a wonderful way to show you know someone well. If your boss loves golf, add a copy of "Chicken Soup for the Golfer's Soul" along with golf balls and a variety of her favorite snacks. If your boss loves to cook, buy her baking utensils, cookware and gourmet pastas or sauces to fill the basket. If she loves to read, include a few books in her favorite genre along with a booklight, desk clock and lapdesk.

If you are confused about what gift to give your boss, most retailers and department stores offer gift cards, some of which can be purchased at drugstores and grocery stores. You can buy cards for home improvement, electronics, bookstores, restaurants and even popular online retailers. You can even buy Visa, American Express or debit gift cards that are valid anywhere. Always include a well-written, thoughtful card with your card gift to convey your thoughts.

Pick up a wine trade publications to read about new, highly rated wines on the market. Purchase a nice bottle of wine, and put it in a metal ice bucket. Add a shiny new wine magazine and maybe even a subscription, if its within your budget, making sure your boss knows the subscription is part of the gift. If your boss likes a specific kind of drink, you may choose liquors instead; add the liquors it takes to make one or two of her favorite drinks.
