What to buy co-workers as a group gift?

To give a little background, I used to work in an office for a major company and due to family issues, I had to move 9 hours away. My employer was gracious enough to not only keep me as an employee, but purchase my entire home office (except for decorations, of course). So, I am now looking for a "group gift" to purchase for my department team to enjoy (about 7 people), just to say hello and I miss them. We were, and still are, a very close team and love to joke. I can't seem to think of something that I can mail or have mailed to the office for all of them to enjoy. Does anyone have any ideas?

I would try sending something, much like the previous people suggested. But, there are always ways to make something normal, seem much more personal and heartfelt. For instance, the coffee mugs, maybe have them made with a picture of you and that person and enscribe their name on it. There are alot of things to give. I would suggest just searching the web and trying to find something that YOU know they will like. Good luck.

Thank you and welcome to mylot! I am definitely googling things and trying to figure something out to send them that not only has value, but a personal touch. Thank you for responding.

A platter of goodies seems to always go over well or a nice bouquet of flowers and card to let them know your appreciation and that you are thinking of them often.
