I always thought a white elephant gift was one that you took from your house. Something you already have and you give it as a gift...??0

I was going to suggest Wine but noticed you wrote Church youth leaders so maybe not. Carrieogg, that's how I've played before too...it was a regift. Something that someone had given you, so its still brand new just something you didn't like or didn't have a use for it. At work, we buy something new and then draw numbers as to who chooses first then the gifts can be stolen but once its taken twice it ends up with the 3rd person.
What about lottery tickets like scratchers? or scarves.0 -
I was going suggest booze, which was always highly coveted at my workplace's White Elephants.... but Starbucks gift cards were pretty popular as well.0

I gave an old canning far full of some dirt and pebbles from our garden. Put a label on it... "Authentic Dirt From __________ ".
Another year I wrapped a big pretty present with a note inside that said "Better Luck Next Time".
I love white elephant gift exchanges! So much fun!
Also, we always do white elephants as gag gifts....0 -
Anyone got a good suggestion for a white elephant gift? I am going to a Christmas party tonight and need to get something. Keep suggestions clean as this party is for Chuch youth leaders but I need something that would be funny.
Thanks.

My wife took two rather unattractive porcelain figurines that she'd been trying to get rid of for years.
In return for our efforts, we came back with an electric hedge trimmer that doesn't have a power cord because the guy cut it in two.0 -
I got this last year. I guess you can get them at the hallmark stores.

Any gifts that you've been given but not used or something new that you already have is perfect. A frame, puzzle, game, candle...0

We always have this kind of gift exchange at our Family/Friends Party. It's always at my house & as crazy as I am, I have to make it good.
One year, I found a bowling pin, ceramic cookie jar @ Big Lots. You wouldn't believe how many times that darn cookie jar was passed around. My poor 20 year old nephew ended up with it. I sat there & watched the grimace on his face all night because he ended up with this gift.
When the game finally ended, I stood up & said that since everyone dodged that cookie jar and he ended up with it...told him open up the box & look in cookie jar...I had put a $50 bill in it, which was worth more than any of the bottles of liquor they were fighting over.
Goes to show...you never know!
Everyone just loves that story.0 -
Last year, at my husband's work party, someone got a new toilet plunger and some TP. It was really funny because the party was at a Mexican restaurant.... but then again, my sense of humor is REALLY immature.0

A movie gift card that's enough to cover 2 movie tickets. DATE NIGHT! or single movie with candy
And depending on what the budget is you could add a gift card to a restaurant or pizza place, or starbucks

we're doing the White Elephant Christmas Gift Exchange tomorrow and it's a little different; we have to purchase something that's around $15 , wrap it, and let the passing begin. LOL0

I'm going to one tonight as well, I got a 1lb bar of Hershey chocolate and a 1lb pack of Reese's Cup. I know I'm going to a party with chocolate lovers!
I went to one last week and brought a Rubbermaid pitcher and filled it with Kool-Aid packets! There was some fighting for that one!0 -

Best Buy had both a Justin Beiber Singing Toothbrush, and an Edward Cullen Twilight Flatiron.
If someone's a fan, it's a great gift. If someone's not, it's great in it's jaw-dropping awfulness!0
