These presents are sure to be loved. Sometimes you just don’t know what to get someone. They might have everything they want. They might be unknown to you, like a secret Santa. It might be your in-law that you cannot stand but need to appease due to social contract. No matter what the case is, these 5 following gifts are sure to be well received. Make sure to keep this list handy for the next office Christmas party, so you know what to bring.

1. Socks
Socks are the ban of every child’s existence, but they are the life saver of adults. Everyone over the age of 17 loves socks. Socks have a nasty habit of disappearing or getting worn out, so getting more socks is always a huge plus. Any kind of socks, from plain white to decorated with silly kitties, are sure to be welcomed. Any complaints can be silenced with the assertion that socks are basically invisible under regular clothes, and the recipient should be grateful.
2. Beer
Beer is like socks for your soul. Beer makes you feel very warm and full inside, driving out the chill of winter and the solitude that sometimes accompanies the holidays. Beer comes in a large array of flavors and textures, so there’s something for everyone. There’s even alcohol free beer for people who choose not to partake in booze. Beer is a nice heavy gift that’s fun o hold up over head, then drink so it doesn’t end up taking up room.

3. Amazon Giftcards
Amazon giftcards are the least offensive giftcard. Everything most people need is on Amazon, even boring stuff like shampoo and deodorant. If someone gets an Amazon giftcard and can’t think of anything to get, then they are just lacking in life’s true joys. Plus, the more they buy from Amazon, the sooner Amazon can fund their fleet of delivery drones, which will make Christmas much more exciting in the future. So please, think of the drones.
4. An Apology
Say you need to get a gift for an absolute scoundrel. They could be family, or a coworker, or somebody else that is always around but not by your choice. What better thing to get them than a free thing? Try apologizing. Make it sappy and faux-sincere. Act like it’s a huge deal. Admit fault for a thing you totally didn’t do, but who cares anyway? That way it looks like you thought long and hard about it, but really you just saved yourself 20 bucks.

5. 20 Bucks
When in doubt, just give them a crisp twenty dollar bill. Perhaps place it within a nice fancy card. Sometimes, money really is everything. Some people legitimately don’t like gifts, or maybe they understand that sometimes the pageantry of Christmas can be a bit overwhelming. This way, the recipient gets a net profit off of a holiday. It’s a great way to fin, and it’s going to help keep the economy going. Giving someone a twenty is a gift to America.
