A former co-worker of mine from an old job used to bring last year’s expired chocolates in and they were always caked with that weird white stuff. This is probably still better lol.
I would say the bag likely cost as much as the Pringles! Bit strange. I would’ve grabbed at least a crappy bottle of Rose for £6 or something.
Given cost of things nowadays I wouldn’t be surprised if the bottle bag was £8…
It feels wrong seeing his body…
You know what? Fuck the limit, I’d be happy with that. I don’t know their circumstance, and it’s something I’d enjoy.
Someone had a chip on their shoulder.
A pipe of pringles will suffice
Keep them in the office, eat them loudly one by one. If anyone asks for one: “no, sorry, these are my expensive present pringles”.
To be fair, at least they got you the best flavour.
That’s what I’ve hated about secret Santa at work some ppl participating and don’t giving a shit about any effort. Even shower gel was better gift than few sweets from corner shop on the way to work bought last day. But we had a few great ones like men’s toy for a guy who transparently was saying he lives to masturbate, books “life with small penis ” , or Hitler biography for one of managers 😂 . My best one was film disposable camera as I’m in photography as a hobby . They even let me to use it on site where using mobile phones is not allowed. I had few great shots from work including one great guy who passed during Corona had him working and not expecting it . Gave a copy to his teenager son when he passed away.
Did you check inside it? Double bluff?
Tbf those cost 9.99 now
My wife sets a rule now to have a minimum as well. The last secret Santa I bought something nice for about 20 quid and my friend bought a small inflatable toupee, which I will never forgive them for 😂
The limit for what?
They changed the recipe to low sodium too which is why all Pringles taste a bit off atm. They changing it back due to complaints. (Taste like soap)
This has the Xmas branding so it’s the shite flavour one too.
Raise you a £15 Amazon voucher on a £30 budget.
Tight wad
My work Christmas Secret Santa limit was also a tenner and I got a crappy eyeliner pencil that’s showing as £3 online… Hard not to feel short changed when I maxed out the budget on mine.
You still did better than one of my support workers secret Santa!
He got assigned a new person he’d never met as they work from home now and ended up going round tkmax with me the day before he needed something.
The poor woman got a card game on how bad her ex was, as that was the best thing he could find that he thought was funny for under a tenner. I tried mentioning nice socks and chocolates etc., but no, he felt it had to be funny and was disappointed he couldn’t give her something rude because he hadn’t met her and his wife told him not to after what happened to Gregg Wallace.
Awkward all round.
… It’s a bit worse than having another employee go out of their way during lunch and buying you a nice personal 2nd present because they felt so bad for your secret Santa gift. Happened to me once, was nice of them.

You can get at least 5 tubes for that on offer
That there is someone who forgot, and grabbed something from the cupboard.
They’re on offer for [£1.85](https://www.waitrose.com/ecom/products/pringles-texas-bbq-sharing-crisps/889572-770379-770380?gclsrc=aw.ds&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADnhuuWcXMoImEyOE0qlYv7xOTx-C&gclid=CjwKCAiA65m7BhAwEiwAAgu4JEu10KgmB9-vvrvtzpMaJj5XOL8mWFWhdbGKap4R5ubDZBl-gF-pnxoC9ksQAvD_BwE) right now, you’ve been short changed!
