For the you know...

This bag of candy shouldn't have to be explained to the person you're giving it to. It'll be satisfying to see them eat a bag of themselves.

For the sloppy drinker

You can't take this person to happy hour, work functions or even to lunch without them making a fool out of themselves and spilling their whole drink on you. So help them out and give them their very sippy cup. Cheers!

This person always has everything in top shape and hates anything out of order. So, buying them a glitter bomb will probably freak them TF out. Good job having them clean up after themselves for the rest of the day.

For the cheapstake

This is for the person that hates contributing, but is a big fan of IOUs. They're also the same person that doesn't want to go out and waste money, but instead buys everything anyways and wants to split the check evenly. So, since they're all about saving money, this should be perfect.

For the lazy S.O.B

They never put 100 percent in their work, more like 25 percent on a good day and on group projects you can forget them pulling their weight. This shirt sums their lifestyle perfectly.

For the person you despise the most

Just regift them something from work. Bonus if you grab an item from their work space and wrap it up. Why spend money on that person anyways?
