It is getting close to that time of year. We draw names to keep this managable but I like to buy < 10.00 stuff for those I didn't draw. In various years I've given things like:
Maglights Cutting boards Shelf liners small fire extinguishers Flip out stanley knives Bulk spices jallepeno stuffed olives (sams club sized jars) Tape measures Screwdrivers
Any other ideas?

I stopped by the local Homier Tool store the other night. They have lots of little stuff like LED keychains, glasses repair kits, mini screwdrivers, tape measures, etc. Not great stuff but fun. Randy
