White Elephant Gift Exchange: In its most basic form, the game is as follows: Each participant supplies one wrapped gift. The gifts are placed in a central location, and participants determine in what order they will take turns selecting them. The first person opens a wrapped gift and the turn ends. On subsequent turns, each person gets the choice of “stealing” any unwrapped item or choosing a wrapped one from the gift pile. When a player’s gift is stolen, they must select a replacement gift from the pile of wrapped presents. The game is over when the last person has taken their turn. Source: Wikipedia
White Elephant Gift Exchange parties are always my favorite! There are several different variations like only giving items that you are re-gifting, giving used items, giving items that you found at a garage sale, or only buying items under a certain price point.

1. Bacon Soap – who wouldn’t want to smell like bacon??
2. Banana Slicer – because everyone could use an extra 10 seconds in their day. (this one is worth looking at just to read the reviews!)
3. Dehydrated Cereal Marshmallows – They were the only part of Lucky Charms that I ate anyway. They even sell them in 40 lb boxes!!
4. Nicholas Cage Pillowcase – What could be better than sleeping on a picture of Nicholas Cage’s face?
5. Uranium Ore – and it’s on sale too! 😉
6. Toilet Mug – even the person who has everything probably doesn’t have this.
7. Talking Toilet Paper Spindle – or if you don’t want to record your own message, you can have this one sing Christmas songs instead.
8. Justin Bieber Singing Toothbrush – doesn’t everyone want to hear Justin Bieber sing while they brush their teeth?
9. Crafting With Cat Hair – why throw away the cat hair on your furniture when you can make things with it instead?
10. Bacon Flavored Toothpaste – forget mint and cinnamon, your breath can smell like BACON!!
First off I love the list, secondly I love that you linked them all to amazon! 🙂
I have been wishing for the marshmallows, thank you so much for this list!
