beachump Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 What would be a good gift to bring from America for the ladies working in an office? I was thinking maybe a big jar of mixed nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Expect that would be appreciated but would add below as totally unavailable here AFAIK and although some will not like others may. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shot Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Food for sure. Smoked salmon is good choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ezzra Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Expensive make up and facial cleansing and whitening stuff, or some good quality chocolates and cookies will do just fine.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richard_smith237 Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Something fun and quirky that cannot be purchased in Thailand... It really depends on your budget... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Plenty of nuts already in Thailand. Fetch on of those big boxes of assorted jelly beans. I don't see them here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SOUTHERNSTAR Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Wrong question to ask here as the answers maybe less than serious. They love to eat some like sweet things others not, bring candy/sweets and salty nuts. Anything you can't get here or are expensive will be a hit.

petesc55 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 Walmart has a lot of large bags of assortments like this. I usually bring Hersheys of various types, yeah, most of the hersheys is sold everywhere, but there are usually some in the assortments not sold in Asia.....and it all vanishes, anyway.

xtrnuno41 Posted January 9, 2017 Share Posted January 9, 2017 chocolate is good choice ofcourse or otherwise have a night out in a dinner with them or maybe even gold.....cheese !! They all heard about cheese but never ate?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted January 10, 2017 Share Posted January 10, 2017 Suspect you are not in Thailand currently? Cheese has become almost as common as rice in the last few years - big change - so expect most have indeed eaten it and had many types of snack food flavored by it. Even some of the pizzas actually have more than a dab these days. Chocolate (filled) is normally not a good choice because of heat here - most US types will not survive.

elgenon Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Why do guys always think perfume would be appreciated? My experience is that girls have a particular scent they like. Are guys choosy about deodorant they use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
janejira Posted January 13, 2017 Share Posted January 13, 2017 I usually bring back the travel sized lotions or hand sanitizer from Bath and Body works, or whatever is on sale at the store. I have also done the minature scented candles from Yankee Candles- there is usually a sale if you buy 5-10. There is both Yankee Candle and Bath and Body works in Thailand, but it is so expensive. Put them in a basket with some candy and let the ladies in the office pick the scent/item they want. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
