NBR: Prizes ?

We are looking to have a contest at work.  I have about $1000 for prizes.  Would you do 1 big prize or do 3 or 4 smaller prizes.  Any ideas for prizes?   I was thinking along the lines of:

Ipad

Ipod touch

Kindle fire

Iphone

maybe visa gift card?

Re: NBR: Prizes ?

  • At our office Christmas party, we had a similar prize budget and this is what I remember from the list

    Kindle
    Nook
    Blue Ray DVD Player
    Flip video camera
    Digital Camera
    Bottle of nice wine
    Three Extra Vacation Days
    Ipod

     

  • Loading the player...
  • I'd definitely do smaller prizes so more people win. Maybe you could do 1 or 2 larger prizes and then a few $100 or $50 visa gift cards.

    I think the iPad and/or Kindle Fire are good ideas.

    ETA: I won a gift certificate to a nice restaurant once which was nice. So, that's another option.

  • i wouldn't do an iPhone, as that requires a contract with certain companies (unless your company pays for employee cells with those providers?)

    i also like the idea of 1 or 2 big prizes and a few smaller ones in varying denominations.

  • Could you do the iPad as the main prize (half the budget) and then smaller things?

    Kindle/Nook

    Restaurant gift card (maybe to a place like Great American Restaurants or Jose Andres so they could choose from more than one restaurant?)

    Wine tasting or beer making class?

    Digital camera

    I love the idea of days off of work

    You could also do small "consolation"-type prizes like Starbucks gift cards, bottles of wine, movie tickets.
