It's a secret Santa right? So get something totally inappropriate and drop heavy hints that the nearest rival for your next promotion sent it. :greengrin

I wanted to get a mug with a photo of me in a santa hat for mines, but I left it too late. That's my plan for next year.

Depends on how much dosh you have to fork out.
I'd suggest a good bottle of vino or a quality picture frame never goes amiss.

Asda had a 3d printing booth a wee while back where you could get a 20cm tall figurine of yourself made for £60. If the price of that comes down in the next couple of years there's potential there for a comedy gift.

I remember in 2007 a work colleague getting the boss as his secret Santa. He got him an extra large t-shirt with the words

I AM A TWAT

On the front.

I don't think it ever got worn but you should have seen his face when he unwrapped his pressie. :greengrin
