Tote Bags for Lab Techs Under $25
The Goldilocks zone of workplace gifting. The perfect tote bags for the lab techs in your life without breaking the bank.
Why Tote Bags for Lab Techs
Lab techs are the invisible heroes of healthcare. Without you, doctors are just guessing. You deal with impossible turnaround times and samples that definitely weren't collected properly.
Your commute bag is a daily statement piece whether you like it or not. Instead of a boring black laptop bag or a free tote from a conference, why not carry something that makes people on the train do a double-take? These bags hold everything you need while broadcasting exactly how you feel about Monday mornings.
About the $25 Budget
Twenty-five bucks is the universal 'I put in effort but didn't remortgage my house' price point. It's what most office gift exchanges land on because it's high enough to get something decent and low enough that nobody feels weird. This is the budget where you can actually impress people—or at least make them snort-laugh in front of HR.
