yankee swap gift suggestions

anyone have any suggestions for a gift for the family yankee swap?
25 bucks is what we are supposed to spend, it can be something good, useful, a gag gift
what ya got?

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Peppermint Bark candy is always a popular one? Who doesn't like candy? A mall gift card or a store gift card? An ITunes gift card?

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

I think $25 has come to mean "at least $25" these days. Anyway I would not go gag gift for something like that. Gift certs to a place where $25 can actually buy something is nice. I once got a Tiffany's gift cert but the cheapest thing in the store was about $100 which makes even a $50 gift cert a burden rather than a present.

The book of awkward family photos is pretty good. It gets laughs from kids to adults. I bought it one year and ended up winning it back and everyone loves looking at it

Bags of DD coffee, if it's for adults maybe a bottle of wine or booze, cant go wrong with scratch tickets, or even gas cards. Go to a bookstore and get a hardcover "coffee table" type book, we ended up with one (Scenic America) a few years back, and I still find myself looking at it from time to time... really cool pics.

A hit at the office one as jokes are always anything "made for TV" like snuggies etc. They sell stuff like that at walmart. As far as practical flashights / led lanterns are good as is a quality thermos or travel mugs.

I just did one of those....I put in a tuna lure and a t shirt that said : " I shaved my balls for this? "

Both were big hits.

Other people seem to like lottery tickets
