Depending on what your boss or co-workers like, tickets to a big event always go over big. If your co-workers like sports, get them tickets to go see their favorite basketball, football or hockey team. If they like music, get them tickets to a cheap concert. If they like live theatre, check local shows for tickets! The best resource for ticket purchasing is StubHub.com.

Alcohol

Alcohol is the great equalizer, and makes a good gift for pretty much everyone. Get your boss a nice bottle of wine if you know he or she enjoys it. If you're totally lost on what to get in a package store, there's always wine.com, where you can browse wines at any price and have them shipped to your address!

Books

A book is a traditional, quality choice for a gift, especially nowadays with everyone addicted to their phones. Get your co-worker a book on something they like, whether it be politics, military history, romance, cooking, etc. The best online resource for books is amazon.com, though your local book store would likely value your business more!

Food

One way of showing appreciation for your boss and co-workers is through homemade food. Baked goods like cookies, brownies, pie and fudge can go a long way towards gaining some good will with co-workers. It's also a nice personal gift that you can be proud of.

Pens

If you work in an office, pens are a necessary tool. You could get your boss a fancy, stylish pen if he has to sign off on a lot of paperwork. Make it even more personalized by getting your company's name or the boss/co-worker's name engraved on the pen. Find more info on how to do this at pens.com.
