KHI
So we are 5 individuals possibly will grow to 10 in the next coming months at my new employer. We've been given $1,000 to invest in the office for stuff that could beautify the office and also make our stay there more comfortable. This is in addition to i7 gpu laden lappies, the usual high speed internet.

My ideas were cheapest 32 inch tv, a console such as the 360 (for running non-original games), a blender for smoothies (free fruits will be arranged by employer in addition to healthy snacks), bean bags, space constriction since we are in mezzanine would mean possibly only darts for sports, stylish table lamps, branded tees posters of our own brands are all on the list already.

The challenge to you guys is if you were given $1,000 to spend to make your office a better place how would you spend it to the last penny. Because I had never anticipated such a thing I and my fellow colleagues really don't have much of an idea on this:p

P.S I am a gran turismo person so 360 can be interchanged with PS3, if someone can say a brand new ps3 can still run it on a few hundred rupees ki disc then the choice would be clear, waisay bhi sony's controller is love :D

Foosball table will cost half as much as the whole amount at the least, but space constraints might prevent it. Coffee machine might happen, the shashkay wali. The beverages such as chai coffee tou waisay hee unlimited but I suppose they will be self service.

You can place a Pool table or table tennis for some mind refreshing if you have enough space available.

Since you have some extra bucks why not jump to next gen console or a beast PC <3

Coffee machine ka Pakistan mein kitna useage hoga ? also it will difficult to buy different variety of grounded coffee beans ..

I suggested Fußball table because it can become VERY addicting and very competitive in office...or even table tennis ( if you have enough place)
But a console and TV is a must

You're either a coffee person or you aren't, there's no in-between. If you aren't, no amount of coffee is going to make you one. So unless a few people in your office are big fans of coffee, it'll be just like a fever. You'll get a coffee machine, everyone will get excited and use it because it's a new thing, but after a while people will just stop using it and it'll be just another useless thing in the office.

Exactly went through this phenomena my whole department in last place got addicted to coffee but when we broke the jug we just switched back to the drugs we were already on some on green tea some on sherbet tea and you know. I like my coffee black without sugar, when I need a push into the night. In the morning it feels too hardcore for me so green tea without sugar or black tea without sugar it is! So you can say man a in-between does exist kind of where you appreciate it for how its meant to be appreciated but not addicted to it :p

get a deck of cards for 100 bucks ... learn to play double siri ... and you are good ... now invest the rest of the money in a big ass tv, make one of your computers as media server for plex/xbmc and you have a nice media center ....

Orange 55" was for around 80 last i checked, its pretty darn good IPS panel, You can also get Ecostar in good rates ... you will still have money for a xbox one or ps4
