Stumped for a White Elephant Gift?

White Elephant Gift Ideas

So you're going to a Christmas party at which the traditional game of "White Elephant" will be played. And now you're at a loss as to what to bring. Traditionally "White Elephant" parties have a theme; such as movies, over the hill, gag and pranks, Hawaiian, etc. Other times, and this is not so much a theme as it is a restriction, there is no set theme but rather a spending cap; such as no gifts that cost over $10.

I have been to many "White Elephant" parties, and the gag and prank gifts always make the parties more fun. But a good rule of thumb is to have a few decent gifts that way people will be more inclined to trade or "steal" as it's called in the game. Here are just a few suggestions to bring to your next "White Elephant" party. These are sure to get a laugh, if not start a brawl.

White Elephant Gift Ideas:

Adult Footsie Pajamas- You know those cute little one-sies for babies? Well, now they come in adult sizes! There's fleece, flannel, cotton, and cashmere. Comfy, funny, what's not to love?

Anti-motivational posters- Great sayings like "Success…a ‘C' gets a degree" and "Friends…There is No I in Drunk". There are tons of options and all are hilarious.

Christmas themed bowl gifts- Such as a farting Santa Claus, Yule doo Christmas ornament, Poo-pooing holiday candy dispensers…and trust me lots lots more.

Bumper stickers- now you could go with average bumper stickers (political, patriotic, sports related…the standard sticker). Or better yet, wrap up a few that say things like: "Hooker for Hire", "I suffer from (fill in the blank)", "I stop for adult bookstores".

Twisted Fortune Cookies- a twist on both the traditional Christmas treat and the traditional fortune cookie, these reveal fortunes such as, "You should have stayed in bed"

Vintage Toys- Now I don't mean vintage like expensive. I mean vintage like still readily available but packed with memory. Examples being hula-hoops, care bears, pogo sticks, jacks and marbles, pick-up sticks, kites etc.
