I've got a "secret stash".  It's actually assorted chocolates (individually wrapped) that I keep on hand for when I do a bi-weekly presentation at our new employee orientation.  (The poor folks have been sitting in there for 5 hours by the time I get there, so I pass the basket of chocolates as an attention-getter/pick-me-up.)

I keep it in my closet, behind a closed door so I can't see it.  (Out of sight, out of mind!)  Since it's bought for the presentation, I'm allowed to expense it.  But a few people (bossie included) know it's there and will nip in for a piece now and then.  I figure the number of people at orientation numbers anywhere from 40 - 100 so the three to five people who might take a piece once or twice a week is barely a drop in the bucket.  Sometimes you can tell when someone's having a rough day and it's nice to be able to offer them a little something
