Personally I’d love it if I could have something that would last and I know I’d be able to use. Like pens, notebooks, cups, gift cards, hand lotion (because I feel like my hands are ruined personally lol). Stuff like that. If you got a few things along those lines you could put together a nice like treat bag with a thank you note for each partner. All in all it’s pretty cool you’re doing this for your partners though. :)

everyone in my store is a fiend for pins. like enamel pins

Ooo maybe a nice assortment of sharpies and dry erase markers?

my sm gave me fuzzy socks for xmas once! best gift ever lol

My SM once gave us little goodie bags with stuff mentioned in other comments like pens and sharpies and if you're paying out of pocket, dollar tree/ dollar store has tons of cute little gift bags to put the stuff in and save some money. :)

I got mine chapstick and hand lotion !! Everyone is always complaining or asking for it so I got them that plus a mini stuffed animal, now I only did this for coworkers that are working Xmas w me bc that is a bit expensive for all the partners but ya :)

I gave mine a candy bar (the Lindt Creme Brulee ones, because they're my fav) & a personalized ornament to what they like. Like one of my baristas LOVES figs. Fig everything. I found a fig ornament. She cried. Another one loves to bake, so I got him a chocolate cupcake ornament. They all love Christmas & decorating for the holidays, so this worked for my group. I also ordered enamel pins from punkypins.co.uk during their Black Friday sale & got a ton of Christmas ones for $3-$4/each - the whole team loved rifling through the box to pick one out. I bought some extra coffee themed ones to give out as little tokens of appreciations & mini team-wide contests through the next year.

I think the mini hand lotions, sanitizers, Sharpies, & chapstick are great & more practical gift ideas, though!

I'm also making biscuits & gravy (vegetarian sausage gravy portion for my favorite herbivore barista) to bring in for the team working on Christmas Eve. Their love language is basically food.

My favorite gift was embroidered aprons.

my sm did a drawing of gift cards for the grocery store. you could do that with gas cards too. I think the options were $5 $10 $15 and $20 so it was just fun.

someone said hand lotion and i want to say the amount of times i wash my hands at work im always in dire need of hand lotion

I went to BBW and got the small lotions. $3 each on sale and got rewards too. I know hot bar and cold weather destroys the hands! They’re vegan for some of my partners and smell good!!
