Whether you’re a teacher, boss or newlywed, you might find yourself looking for gifts for groups to give out on special occasions — graduations, meetings, maybe even wedding receptions. The key to buying gifts for groups is to find items that are generally liked by many people and can be purchased in bulk.
If they can’t be purchased in bulk, then you'll want to opt for items that are budget-friendly enough to buy multiples without breaking the bank. For example, you'll want to keep picks within the $5-$20 range if you're looking to buy for 10-20 people.
If you don't know where to start, we've curated a list of the best gifts for groups you’ll want to get your hands on from skin care and wellness products to tasty treats and boredom busters.
