Christmas is officially here, and that means your evenings are likely filled with Christmas parties, large family gatherings, and friendly celebrations. And what do all of these events have in common? The need to bring a white elephant gift. Whether you're playing dirty Santa or another gift swap game, we found the best inexpensive gifts that everyone will fight for.
For starters, you'll want something a little bit goofy, but not completely useless. (Tiny hats to prevent bananas from ripening too quickly? Yes. Joke jelly beans that taste like literal garbage? No.) You could go with one of the all-time best Christmas gifts, but those might not fit within your budget. If that's the case, we have lots of suggestions for gifts under $10, in addition to the options below. The best part about white elephant gifts is they don't have to be for any specific person, because anyone could end up with any gift. It's all about finding something fun and practical for everyone! Take a look below for our picks from Amazon, Uncommon Goods, Walmart, and more.
