The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I do gifts at end of projects, sometimes, if the project went on for a while
or we did something special. For example, tomorrow, I end a year long
contract with a good group of men. I have little tins of chocolate and
cookies for each of them. I'm waiting until tomorrow to give them so the
boys don't feel they need to do anything back.
I have also sent PMs flowers if we pulled a miracle out of our you know
wheres. It all depends.

I agree with others that it's usually best to give a group gift or
something that could be shared within the office. That way, you avoid the
appearance of any favoritism (or kissing up).
Also, you avoid putting anyone in the position of not having a gift for
you.
