Farewell Gift Ideas for Coworkers
The best coworker leaving gift depends on how well you know them, your budget, whether it is an individual or team gift, and what they enjoy. A practical voucher can be a good choice when you are unsure; a shared photo, personalised keepsake or experience can feel more meaningful when you know them well.
Farewell Gifts Under $20
Coffee vouchers, treats, a small plant, a favourite snack bundle or a small funny desk gift can all work for a modest budget. Keep the choice useful, kind and easy to enjoy outside the workplace.

Consider a personalised notebook, framed team photo, café voucher, travel accessory or personalised mug. These options leave room for a thoughtful detail without needing a large group contribution.
