A good holiday party is never complete without a white elephant gift exchange. Not only is the white elephant gift exchange entertaining af, but they’re also the most fun to shop for. However, coming up with a standout gift for this kind of thing can be overwhelming.
For all of the first-timers who don’t know how the gift exchange works, here’s a quick rundown: Everyone brings a wrapped gift that falls in the same price bracket. Some groups may agree on a $10 limit, or $20, or maybe $50! Then each person draws a number — which will determine the order in which everyone gets to choose from the pile of wrapped gifts. Sounds easy, right? But there’s a twist! When it’s your turn, you don’t have to pick a present from the unclaimed pile. If you’ve got your eye on a present that someone else has already opened, you can choose to steal their gift instead. Cue the drama!
Fun, right? The only thing that makes it even better is bringing that one present everyone fights over. Below, you’ll find 24 white elephant gifts that are 100% stealable and fairly inexpensive (we’re talking under $50)!
