Experience Gifts
-
A great alternative to a material gift is to give your boss an experience he will enjoy. One of the most common forms of this is a restaurant gift card. A boss that works long hours will enjoy a restaurant gift card that he can use to spend time with his family. Other similar ideas include tickets to the theater or a sporting event of his favorite team.
Hobby-Related Gifts
-
Hobby related gifts are often very useful and practical, such as a nice golfer's bag for a boss who enjoys golf. If your boss has a favorite sports team, getting a gift with their logo can be a cost-effective way to get a gift relating to his interests. Other hobby-related gift ideas include accessories for his favorite gadget, such as a new case for his e-reader or a nice pair of headphones for his iPod.

Gifts for the Office
-
If you are not as familiar with your boss' out-of-work activities and interests, getting him something he can use in the office is a great option. An engraved money clip or business card holder are both good options for a work-related gift. Less expensive office gifts can include a nice pen set, personalized mug, picture frame or paper weight.
Food/Beverage Gifts
-
Food and beverage gifts, such as a fruit basket or bottle of wine, are great low-cost, appropriate gift options for your boss. Bringing your own baked goods not only demonstrates your appreciation but is also a cost-effective option. You can add to the value of a food or beverage gift easily by either increasing the quantity of items or including related extras such as a wine or bottle opener.
