Got a White Elephant gift exchange on the horizon? Well, here’s a tip: you don’t need to settle for buying throwaway items that’ll collect dust. While the specific rules of White Elephant exchanges can vary, the general idea is to buy a gender-neutral gift that anyone can enjoy. Participants then have fun swapping and stealing presents until each person ends up with one. Personally, I find shopping for these gifts quite enjoyable, even though it’s sometimes a bit of a puzzle. Among my top picks for White Elephant gifts are handy portable chargers, entertaining board games, aromatic candles, and electric hand warmers. I’ve put together a list of my favorite useful and last-minute gift ideas that are still available, along with a couple of humorous options to bring some laughs to the event.
