Need white elephant gift idea       12/08/04 03:31 PM Edit Reply Quote BL Reged: 06/01/03 Posts: 3522 I need help in figuring out what white elephant gift to bring to our couples' Christmas dinner party Saturday. For those of you who don't know what a white elephant gift is, it's something dumb and useless that you bring. Usually it's something you already have at your house or in your attic. Kind of like a gag gift, except most of us don't buy it, we just get it from our house. We trade gifts---and it can get so funny! I am having a hard time thinking of something to bring this year. I'm so good (or bad) about taking useless things to Goodwill that I don't have a lot of junk around my house. One year I did buy something---a pair of thongs and it was great because one of the husbands who is in his 50's and very overweight, picked my gift and opened it. It got lots of laughs, and in fact, the same gift was wrapped and put in the pile the next year. Another year we wrapped up our LSU stadium seats and a fake invitation to the Sugar Bowl (featuring LSU) since several in our group are big Univ. of Georgia fans and Georgia had been beaten by LSU that year. And of course, the diehard Georgia fan picked that gift out of the pile. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!! Any ideas? Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
