Golden tips when buying gifts for colleagues: don't miss it!

Bí quyết "vàng" khi mua quà tặng đồng nghiệp

In the modern office environment, giving gifts to colleagues has become a beautiful cultural feature, showing care, respect and contributing to building close relationships. However, how can the gift you choose not only make the recipient happy but also leave a good impression, avoiding awkward situations? This article by Donner Merch will provide "golden" tips from considering important factors when buying gifts for colleagues, things to avoid, to smart shopping tips, helping you confidently choose and give the most meaningful gifts to your colleagues.

Factors to consider when buying gifts for colleagues

Before deciding which gift to buy, you should consider the following factors to ensure the gift is truly appropriate and delicate:

1. Level of relationship with the recipient

Are you and that coworker close? Are they casual co-workers, close co-workers, or bosses?

  • If the relationship is close, you can choose to buy more personal gifts for colleagues such as favorite books, handmade items, health care products.
  • If it is a social relationship, you should prioritize neutral, easy-to-use gifts such as thermos cups, notebooks, pens, etc.

2. Gift giving occasion

Depending on the situation, the gift should also change accordingly:

  • Birthday: A personal gift or a light celebration.
  • Parting: Souvenirs or keepsakes such as photo frames, handwritten cards, autograph books.
  • Promotion, Tet holiday: Gifts with congratulatory meaning, a bit more luxurious.
  • Thank you, encouragement: Small, cute gifts, maybe snacks, high-quality tea bags, office decor items.

3. The recipient's interests and personality

If you know your co-workers well, buying gifts for them will be much easier.

  • Tech lovers → choose headphones, USB, wireless mouse.
  • Beauty lovers → choose lip balm, mini cosmetic bag, mini perfume.
  • Book lovers → choose books or reading lamps, leather bookmarks with engraved names.

4. Budget

This is an important factor to avoid putting pressure on both the giver and the recipient. Normally, a reasonable price for a gift for a colleague ranges from 100,000 VND to 500,000 VND, depending on the occasion and the recipient. You should not choose a gift that is too expensive because it can easily cause misunderstandings, especially if it is just a social relationship.

Things to avoid when buying gifts for colleagues

Besides the do's, knowing what not to give is equally important to avoid misunderstandings or counterproductive effects.

  • Gifts that are too private or highly personal: Unless you and your co-worker have an extremely close relationship and know each other well (e.g. long-time friends), absolutely avoid gifts that are sensitive, or body care products that are too specific. These gifts can easily be awkward or misunderstood.
  • Gifts that are too expensive or too cheap: Gifts that are too expensive can make the recipient feel pressured to reciprocate, or suspicious of your intentions, especially if they are given by a colleague of the opposite sex or a subordinate to a superior. Conversely, poor quality gifts show disrespect, carelessness, and reduce the value of the colleague relationship. The value of the gift should be commensurate with the relationship and the occasion.
  • Poor quality, useless gifts: A gift that is easily damaged, looks flimsy or has no practical application will not leave a good impression. It can also reflect your lack of professionalism. Prioritize durable and useful products when choosing gifts for colleagues.
  • Sensitive or misleading gifts: Avoid gifts that may be related to sensitive issues such as politics, religion, or products that involve revealing personal information. Also be cautious with appearance-related products (such as weight loss or acne products) unless the recipient has clearly expressed a need.

Smart tips for buying gifts for colleagues

To make the gift shopping process smooth and efficient, apply the following smart shopping tips:

  • Compare prices before you buy: Don’t rush to buy at the first store. Take the time to shop around (both online and offline) to make sure you get the best price for a quality product.
  • Consider promotions and discounts: Take advantage of major holidays, sales, or discount codes to save money while still ensuring the quality of the gift.
  • Read product and seller reviews (especially when buying online): Before buying online, carefully read comments and reviews from previous customers to check the actual product quality and the seller's reputation. This helps you avoid buying poor quality products.
  • Consider gift wrapping and a card: A beautifully wrapped gift with a handwritten (or printed) card with a heartfelt message will add a lot to the value of the gift. Many gift shops and gift suppliers offer this service, so take advantage of it to make your gift even more perfect.
