Secret Santa Upto £5. Any Ideas??

Hi All,
I need some ideas for a Secret Santa present. I only joined the company this year and unfortunately I picked the person who left 2 weeks before I joined, to have a baby. She returns to work in the New Year.
So I am in a bit of predicament as I really do not know her. I have only met her twice when she bought the baby in.
Any ideas would be really appreciated. Not knowing her very well, I think the item should be fun but not to risque!!
Thanks

Next do perfume for £5 if you want something fairly 'safe'?There is no such thing as a free lunch. Its only free because you've paid for it.
Noone can have everything they want and the sooner you learn that the better.

how about a 'baby's firtst christmas' photo frame, or a plainish one if you want to keep it safe, so she can have a photo on her desk when she comes back to work.0

How about five lucky dips for the christmas lottery? Put the ticket in an envelope and hide in a small box filled with shredded paper, seal the box and wrap with festive wrapping paper.

How about a little pot of gold - made with gold chocolate coins, ferrero rocer - or other gold sweets and scratchcards or lotto tickets to take it up to the fiver? Or a nice cup for her desk with some festive sweeties in?You can stand there and agonize........
