Are you talking about ONE prize or many prizes.  If it is several prizes you could do boxes of candy.  Most people would like that unless they are diabetic.  You could do gift cards to eating places.  A lot of people would suggest a day at a spa but I would not recommend that.  I would just throw something like that away.  Without knowing more info on what you are looking for it is hard to say.

Scratch-off lottery tickets are pretty inexpensive and they always make a great gift that people like. Some people won't buy them on their own but get a big kick out of receiving one for free.

I agree with gift cards, but don't limit it to just places to eat out at. I know I'd be psyched if I got a gift card, say, to Whole Foods Market where I could get food plus amazing personal hygiene and beauty products. What about movie tickets, too? Just an idea.  :)  :present:

The first year I did gift cards to olive garden and red lobster
Then I get a gift basket for him and her
then I did a dinner and a movie package equaling $50 ( not sure if I should add to this)

Actually for the most part this is a waste.  If you don't win anything then all you have is a worthless piece of paper.
