What to get the boss

[shopping mom]

I started a new job at the beginning of October. It is only me, a girl who works part time and the owner. The owner is a great boss and I would like to do something for her at Christmas. She plays tennis, quilts, and likes flavored coffees. I would like to keep the gift around $20.00. Any suggestions?

I always do a Caribou/Starbucks/Qdoba/Panera gift card for my boss or any coworkers I would buy for.

I work in a small office and always give my co-workers a box of the Hershey's Pot-O-Gold chocolates.

Since she likes coffee, maybe a basket. You can get single packs at the grocery store and place them in a nice basket with a coffee mug or two, and maybe a smaller basket with quilting supplies.

I think if she likes flavored coffee I would go with some nice coffees and maybe some "treats" like Biscotti or something.

id say the coffee

I cast my vote for the coffee... maybe you could put the coffees in a small sewing basket.

You mention flavor coffees.... If you know which flavor your boss likes, some coffee shops will order a whole bottle of flavoring for you when they place their next supply order. Grocery stores carry some but are are usually limited to vanilla and hazelnut.

My favorite is almond, and I love having a whole bottle on hand to use when I want to without having to buy the expensive coffee.... I think the last bottle I bought was ~$12.

It is very concentrated and lasts a long time too!

Heres a link to a site where you can design your own baskets... Now they may be a little pricey, but you could probably get some ideas to build one on your own?
