Is this a weird gift?
is giving a blanket/throw a weird gift to give to co workers? they are guys if that makes a different. I don't spend a lot of money and I am starting to run out of ideas. I got a good deal on them on black Friday.
the women I got pashmina scarf. I assume this is an ok gift for them right?

Is this a weird gift?
If my DH got a blanket/throw from a coworker I wouldn't find it weird. And I think a scarf is fine for the women.

If it was a female co-worker, then no, not weird. Male co-worker, yes it's weird.

Not so much weird, as random. I don't think any guy would want/need a throw.

Re: Is this a weird gift?
My husband had gotten that as the company gift ( large organization) I did think it was weird, but those gifts usually are.
He uses that one to lay out on the floor to fold laundry.
Another one ( free gift from my college reunion) we use for random "messy" things-- like taking the air conditioner out of the window & not wanting to scratch the floor.
I wouldn't put them out on the couch or anything.
I have a male co-worker that I am at a loss for too.
Usually I go with a gift card, which is silly, b/c we basically trade gift cards. I have gotten wine in the past, but he isn't much of a drinker. I may get some men's grooming products, this year. Or touch screen gloves. Not sure.
ETA- the pashmina scarf is a good gift for the ladies.

I love a good comfy throw blanket especially in the cold months so no I don't think it is a weird gift

Re: Is this a weird gift?
I'm thinking of all the men in my life 
Like, SO, my brother, father, cousins, etc.
And I'm thinking, would they use a throw? Enjoy a throw?
And yeah I'm going to go with YES.
My brother is a huge fan of throw blankets.

Re: Is this a weird gift?
I think some guys might find it odd, but then probably end up using it.
