B&M's 10 Best Office Secret Santa Gifts for 2018

14 November 2018

When it comes to drawing names for the annual office Secret Santa, it’s understandable that some people get a little nervous. You could come away with the name of a friend you’ve worked with for some years and is the easiest person in the world to buy for, or you may have to ask who your pick actually is - only to find out that they work in a different branch and only started last Monday!

Luckily, here at B&M we stock a wide range of fun, useful and affordable gifts that are bound to enchant - so whoever’s name you pull out, it’ll be easy to make them smile. Read on for our Office Secret Santa Top Picks...

1. For the Insta Model

What’s the biggest difference between Kim K and your selfie-loving work bestie? No, it’s not a business empire worth millions of dollars, a chart topping husband or a high-grossing TV show. It’s the much sought-after ring light! Credited with instantly revolutionising the quality of selfies among the rich and famous, these beauties regularly go for a pretty penny.

However, thanks to Byte at B&M, you can grab one in classy gold or slick silver for just a fiver. If you know someone who wants to raise their Instagram game for Christmas, look no further.

2. For the Stressed Colleague
