Default Need office gift idea

OK, so I've been working the same job on-campus job for the last few years, and the people I work for here are the absolute best and would do/have done anything for me. I'm going to be leaving after the fall and I want to show my appreciation by giving a gift 'to the office'.

We have a fun, friendly atmosphere, and in the past one of my bosses has occasionally bought a gift for us to use here, i.e., a gumball machine or a dartboard. I want to get something similar. It should be something fun and diversionary and unique that doesn't take up too much space. Something that can sit on a small table or hang up on the wall would be ideal. I want to keep it under $50, more is OK if it's really good but it would probably be awkward if it's too expensive. I really really want it to be something creative and good but I'm terrible at gift ideas.

$20 on stars for the idea that I use.

Here and more specifically, here. Even more specifically, here.

Stay away from this.

These things are sweet (I have one and loove it). You can shoot someone, but there isn't a projectile or anything. Also fun to shoot at blinds and such.

You could buy the office some sort of small appliance that would be useful- microwave, toaster oven, etc. The only reason I mention it is that our toaster oven is on the fritz and I have had to eat barely toasted bagels 3 Fridays in a row. [img]/images/graemlins/mad.gif[/img]
