Hi everyone I wasn't quite sure where to post this so I thought this would be the best place.

I'm a human resources intern and I'm on my companies wellness committee. I'm currently working on putting together a wellness catalog with different prizes to be used for the different events we have.

I'm looking for prize ideas, I already have some things like foam rollers, ninja blender, snow shoes, rollerbladed, trail poles, food scales, wireless headphones but I'm looking for new ideas.

Prizes can vary in cost from $10 to usually up to $150 (sometimes we also do big prizes of up to $250 but this isn't as common). And really can be anything wellness related.

Any ideas would be much appreciated esp. more out of the box ideas.

    Gift cards for massage, week of meal prep. I just won a month worth of a personalized on line training program at a Fitness Social I just attended.

    Company logo workout gear (tshirts, sweatshirts, reusable water bottles)
    Armbands for Ipods or smartphones
    Gift card for edible arrangements (healhy snacks!) or, as stated, a gear store like Dick’s Sporting Goods
    Water filters for your faucet at home, or the Brita pitchers
    Smaller workout items, like yoga or gym mats, jump ropes, that sort of thing
    Pedometers or lower-end trackers.


    We had a vendor donate a bicycle as a prize when we were doing an employee walking challenge a few years ago.

    I don't know if you have them where you are but maybe vouchers for food delivery services - fresh fruit boxes etc

    We all got fit bits last year.
    This year, we got a 1/2 session with a personal trainer and an additional $10/month discount on our gym membership. We have gotten gift cards in the past too.

    One of the prizes my health and wellness committee does a "fruit of your choice for a week" prize - that one's fun (and oh how I wish we had the budget you do - our prizes are all $5-15). Since your budget is more flexible, you could have several employees win, or do fruit for a month for a lucky person :)

    Company logo water bottles, hats, and t-shirts are always popular too! We offer low-end pedometers free to anyone who wants one, and have a company step challenge where we add up everyone's steps/miles for the month.
