Please help need gift idea!

Next Saturday, I have an after the holidays, holiday party. We do a "Chinese Auction" thingy and I need to take a gift - the cost needs to be $25. In the past I have done a movie gift basket, Bath and Body Works etc. I am looking for a new idea, something that looks pretty creative, but not something I hand-made. Am I beyond help? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

How about another basket, filled with things for St. Patty's or Valentines day? There's all sorts of decorative items out from candles to wall decor. You can wrap it in tulle with a pretty ribbon....

They have some cute things at Lenox.com on clearance but you may have to pay extra to get it in time. I found a cute bowl with dipping sauces in it.

Go to Ross or Marshall or TJ Maxx (I don't know where you live) and find gourmet coffee and make a coffee/hot chocolate basket.

Or like a Winter Basket?

Edit to add: I see you're just over the river from me. How about a Winter survival basket? Mugs, hot chocolate, tissues, ice defroster for the car, car scraper...
