I advise you not splurge on anything until you know for sure what you want to be doing this year. You obvioulsy know your work associates better than we do, if you don't believe there would be much of a turn out, perhaps it's not worth persuing this year. I blew a bunch of money on a party one year that never happened due to too many schedule conflicts. Weigh the pros and cons, if you do decide to throw a party the best inspiration comes from selecting a theme, and we have no shortage of theme ideas on this forum lol.
Hope that helps some!
