26 Best Budget White Elephant Gifts around $10 for Christmas 2020

October 9, 2020 By Brandon

Best-White-Elephant-Gifts-Under-$10

Attending a Christmas white elephant party can be one of the most enjoyable parts of the season. However, with the financial stresses of the holidays, you don’t want the extra burden of spending a lot of money on a white elephant gift. No need to worry–we’ve found 26 hilarious gifts for around or under $10 each. These unique white elephant gifts are sure to be a highlight of your event!

Things to Consider When Buying A White Elephant Gift

  • Who is your audience? You don’t want to offend or make other party guests uncomfortable. If you have any concerns about what might be appropriate, ask the host for the guest list ahead of time so you can plan accordingly.
  • What’s your budget? You don’t have to spend a fortune to get the perfect gift. Often, the most enjoyed are those that are least expensive. All of the options on this list are around or under $10.
  • Don’t worry about it. This is all about fun, and we have made it so easy to find just the right gift. Look through the list; you are sure to find a gift that will keep everyone laughing.

1. Justin Bieber Singing Toothbrush

 

Budget White Elephant Gifts Bieber Toothbrush
The problem with Justin Bieber this whole time has been not being able to get enough of him. Now, you can solve this problem. With the Justin Bieber Singing Toothbrush you can be an even bigger “Belieber” and listen to Justin’s hit songs “Baby” and “U Smile” over and over again every time you brush your teeth.

Becoming brush buddies with Justin allows you to feel that much closer to him as you share the joys of proper hygiene. Better yet, it has a picture of Justin on the side. So, when it’s been too long between looks, you can satisfy your craving.

Overall, this has to be the sixth best toothbrush I’ve ever used. And I started saving money at the dentist the moment I bought this for my kids. They now brush their teeth 9-10 times a day and cavities are a distant memory. Win!

2. Bobcat Mullet

 

The Bobcat Mullet was recently featured in our best overall white elephant gifts guide. This is a serious white elephant gift that you can take with you all year long. Best of all, since it comes in 3 hair colors (brown, black, and white) it will match your hair perfectly.

I once moved to a deeply routed farm community. After wearing the Bobcat Mullet (shown above) I instantly fit into that culture. The red, white, and blue stripes say “I love America” while the long hair in the back tells everyone I know how to party. When I need to head into the city for business, I simply leave it in the car.

It’s truly the best of both worlds and at just under $10 it’s a steal for something you’ll get thousands of dollars of use out of.

3. Poo-Pourri Toilet Spray

 


This is one of those gag gifts that will get stolen in your inner circle because it’s actually very useful.

Poo Pourri is a spray that masks the odor in the air before it begins. Simply spray it on the water before you go and instead of a horrible smell you get a delightful one.

Want an example of how great it is? Watch the video below.

4. Accoutrements Emergency Underpants


Are your party guests getting a bit up there in age? Why not joke about all the accidents they’re having by giving them this amazing pair of extra underpants. One size fits most adults. So, even though it may seem like a gag gift, this one will likely get used eventually and it’s better than going commando in an awkward moment.

It comes in a small retro tin container that it’ll fit in any purse. It’s also a great stocking stuffer.

5. Flingshot Slingshot Flying Screaming Monkey

 


Who doesn’t love a screaming monkey you can flick across the room? This soft sock monkey is the perfect time waster and a great alternative to playing ball with your child. It goes up to 50 feet!

My kids got a great laugh out of it and it’s a lot of fun to play with. This toy is also available in a wide variety of other animals, so you can pick and choose from a variety of options.

6. Toilet Nightlight

Toilet Nightlight
There’s nothing funny about tripping in the middle of the night and ending up with your hands in toilet water. Trust me. That’s why I decided to make this next gift completely serious.

The LED nightlight for your toilet bowl is motivation activated, fits to any toilet, and has 16 colors in one light. Not only does it help you to find the right place to place your cheeks in the middle of the night, it also makes the throne look fantastic.

This is also a great way to potty train your children. Pretend that when they pee into the bowl it will magically change colors. Trust me, it works!

7. The Screaming Goat Book and Figure

 


Goats have become extremely popular this year. Featured in video games, YouTube, and on television the goats bleat is so infectious that we’ve all fallen in love.

If you find that you can’t get enough, I highly recommend this screaming goat book and figurine.

The figurine gives you that satisfying goat scream you need every day to get yourself out of bed. The included book is a 32-page guide to knowing everything you ever wanted to about this beloved animal.

I highly recommend you use this as you’re listening to Taylor Swift’s trouble song. The full version along with extra goats nearly gets me to tears every time. You can watch it below.

 

8. Farting Animals Coloring Book

 

I’m a serious color-er. So, I look for quality books when I decide to let loose my meticulously sharpened pack of colored pencils. Only the best books are worthy of my prowess.

If you’re as serious as me, I highly recommend you get this Farting Animals Coloring Book. The pages feature gas for everything from a horse to a meerkat. After I finished this, the wind from the animals seem to leap off the page, without the terrible odor of course.

This is a great alternative to going out into the wild and experiencing various animal gasses for yourself. All of this nature for under $10. I highly recommend it for you and your children.

9. Kama Pootra


Who cares about a bunch of positions in bed when you can experiment with 52 various ways to use the porcelain throne? As the average human has around 25,000 bowel movements in their lifetime, this is a great way to branch out and get creative about your inescapable hobby.

The best part is that no matter how you’re feeling you can get excited to try something new and exciting in the bathroom. This book is under $10 when bought in hardcover form or completely free as a Kindle book. I suggest you get both!

Once you’ve memorized this life-changing book, place it in your guest bathroom to enlighten your guests.

10. Accoutrements Bacon Air Freshener

 


Recently switched to vegan? Now you don’t have to be completely stripped of the world’s greatest tasting meat. This bacon air freshener opens up your lungs with the sweet sense of drizzling pork belly. Not only will it leave your car smelling like bacon but your shirt as well.

Whether you’re looking for the right guy or girl in your life or are already matched up, this will drive pursuers in your direction with mouthwatering lust. It also covers up any unfortunate hygiene. Overall, it’s a great purchase for your white elephant party, your office, or your car.

11. Pickle Shaped Adhesive Bandages

 


Do your kids love pickles as much as mine do? Now they’ll be happy to wear bandages over their cuts with these pickle-shaped adhesive bandages.

This pack comes in a pack of 15 and unlike some pickles I’ve tasted are completely sterile.

Really though, these pickle bandaids are a lot of fun but not super high quality. So, don’t count on them for your outdoor spelunking trip. That being said, they’re still great for your white elephant party.

12. Clamdy Canes

Budget White Elephant Gift

Who needs a boring old peppermint candy cane when you can have a Clamdy Cane? These clam flavored candy canes are sure to be a hit at your party. You can even serve them with hot chocolate!

Honestly, I expected that these would sound gross and then surprise me by being a sweet and delicious flavor other than clams. I was wrong. They are just as bad as you would expect; they are actually flavored to taste like clams, and in this case, that isn’t a good thing.

You can be sure other party goers will remember this white elephant gift!

13. Earwax Candle Kit

 

Your body produces many things that you rarely take advantage of. One of those is earwax. Now, you’ve got a way to take advantage of it. OR at least make others think they have.

This Earwax Candle Kit is actually a box you can put anything in. There are graphics on all six sides with specs and writing so serious that it’ll fool even the most intelligent of gift receivers. The size is 11.25″ x 9″ x 3.25″ so it’s quite large and can fit any other white elephant gift you’d like to place inside. To be clear, this is an empty box.

I suppose you could always save a year’s worth of ear wax and place it inside the box as well. The great part is that it’s all up to you!

14. Animal Paw Socks

Engmoo Animal Paw Socks

One of the most important white elephant exchange rules is that the receiver has to wear any wearable gift. These animal paw socks are realistic looking. Choose from cat, dog, elephant, dinosaur, tiger, horse, or zebra socks.

Not to worry–these socks fit up to a men’s size 13, so likely they will work for any of your party guests! Your kids would get a “kick” out of these as well.

15. Unathletic Dept. T-shirt

Unathletic Dept. T-shirt

This is a great white elephant gift for athletes or non-athletes. Poke a little fun at any of your friends with this “unathletic” shirt.

At under $10, this Hanes brand shirt is not only inexpensive, it’s actually good quality too. That means your friend can get lots of wear out of it. Or, if your friends are like mine, you might see this make its way back to another white elephant party in a few years! This shirt comes in sizes small to 3X-large.

16. Bag of Unicorn Farts

 

Bag of Unicorn Farts Elephant Gag Gift

I’ve known for years that unicorns poop skittles. But, did you know that they fart cotton candy? Now you can share a unicorn’s gaseous wonder with your friends in bag form! Best of all, your friends with gluten allergies will be good to go.

All the unicorns that are used in the creation of these bags are free range animals. So, you know that what’s in the bag will have especially good flavor. Since they are typically fed jelly beans, the 3 oz bag is fruit punch flavored.

17. Santa Snot Fidget Putty

Santa Snot Fidget Putty

 

Who doesn’t enjoy having a toy or other random object to play with while trying to concentrate or relax? Enter Santa Snot Fidget Putty. This soft, squishy, satisfying putty is a cotton candy pink color and even has glitter, just as you would expect from Santa’s snot!

Squeeze out the stress of the season with this putty, which stays moist so it can be used time and again. Whether you are catering to adults or kids, this is sure to be a treasured keepsake!

18. Family Blankeez Gift Box


Who wants their own snuggie when you can get a family one? Blankeez gives your friends the impression that such a truly fantastic item exists in real life. Use this box to place a funny white elephant gift or standard gift in to get some laughs.

Like the other box above this one is large and about the size of a phone book so that you have plenty of room to place your desired gift inside. For anyone thinking about making your own family snuggie and putting it in here, it’ll probably be too large. Just a warning from a guy that was deeply disappointed!

19. Pimple Popper Game

Pimple Popping Toy

Who doesn’t love watching a good pimple popping? Everyone seems to be fascinated by the current pimple popping craze. Now you can enjoy pimple popping without the pain!

This game allows you the satisfaction of popping “pimples” and watching the “pus” ooze out. It even comes with a bottle of pimple pus, so you can keep refilling and popping to your heart’s delight. This is a great choice for both adults and children. If you’re looking for white elephant gifts under $10, be sure to look at this one.

20. Dr Dingus Tiny Hands

I am a big guy with large hands, and I’ve always wondered what it would be like to have tiny hands. Good news–now I know! These tiny hands have made all my dreams come true!

My family and friends think it’s hilarious when I use these tiny hands for pranks, surprises, or just to wear around the house. I can’t wait to use these as a white elephant gift this Christmas!

21. Accoutrements Gnarly Teeth

 

Gnarly Teeth

Looking for a white elephant gift under $10? Accoutrements makes some pretty funny gag gifts for the holiday and these gnarly teeth are some of their best. Of course, for some, this may be an improvement over their current grill setup, but I digress.

This pack comes in a set of 9 various gnarly teeth. They aren’t really good enough to chew with. So, those of you thinking of permanent implants might be disappointed. Still, at a price of just under $1 per set, it’s a deal that is hard to pass up. Clearly if your teeth already fit one of the options above, then maybe you’d be better off with something else.

22. Big Undies

 

Big Momma Undies
Now you can put on your big girl panties and not be uncomfortable. Own those curves ladies!

These big undies measure 60″ around and are 30.5″ long. Best of all they are 100% Polyester so they won’t shrink when you need them to fit and stay big! That man in your life will also love the black lace trim.

All joking aside these big undies are a hit at any occasion. Give them at a bachelorette party or as a gag gift and the crowd will go wild guaranteed!

23. Favorite Child Award

 


Have a naughty child? Nothing will inspire them more then when you pin this ribbon on their sibling.

It can also be used as an award for a month of behavior. The best child gets to wear it.

Certainly nothing can go wrong from adding to an already existing sibling rivalry. It’s good for them! Sure, the lesser of your favorite child will get a bit envious, but now they’ll know how the world works!

24. BEYELIAN Rubber Mannequin Head

 BEYELIAN Rubber Practice training Head

Who doesn’t love a creepy rubber head? A rubber mannequin head is a random white elephant gift, but it’s one that party goers will be talking about. This head is roughly the size of the average human head. It’s a fun gift you can use for pranks, costumes, or to scare your friends!

 

25. GeLive Elephant Succulent Planter

GeLive Elephant White Ceramic Succulent Planter

You don’t want to show up to a gift exchange with the same item as someone else. Here is the answer you are looking for.

Nothing says “white elephant” like a white elephant. And this one lets you grow a flower out of the elephant’s back.

Your friends will get a good laugh out of this one!

26. Big Mouth Toys Exercise Block Toy

Friends help friends stay healthy. Am I right? Help your friends get a couple extra walks around the “block” with this funny white elephant gift. This weight block is bound to get some good laughs and help your friends exercise some weight demons. Don’t worry–no actual calories were burned by working out with this gift.

Fun Ideas to Exchange White Elephant Gifts

Wondering how to make your white elephant party memorable and different? Here are some good variations:

  • Have a theme. Choose a theme for the gifts and list it on your invitation. Options could include: wearable gifts, homemade gifts, re-gifted items, edible gifts, practical gifts, items that begin with a specific letter, movie-related gifts, etc.
  • Draw names before the party. Assign each guest another guest to buy for so gifts can be tailored to a specific person. This is especially helpful if you are hosting a virtual white elephant party.
  • Play a game as part of the exchange. Decide who opens a gift first and if others can “steal” the gift on their turns. Make the game rules ahead of time on how many times a gift can exchange hands.
  • Have guests draw a number. Assign each gift a number and then have guests draw a number out of a hat. The gift with the corresponding number will be theirs.
  • Incorporate ugly Christmas sweaters. Ask party goers to wear an ugly Christmas sweater or have everyone bring an ugly sweater to exchange.
  • Make a rule that any wearable item has to be worn. This always seems to make the party more exciting.
  • Have some extra gifts on hand. Just in case someone forgets to bring a gift or if there are duplicates, having a few extra gifts ready is a good idea.

We hope you’ve enjoyed our list of cheap and unique white elephant gift ideas. Be sure to let us know which of these was your favorite and white elephant gift you gave at your party this year in the open area below. Most of the descriptions in this article are completely sarcastic. If you didn’t realize that, perhaps a white elephant party is not right for you. Enjoy choosing which white elephant gift you’re going to give (it can be difficult to narrow it down to just one or two) and look forward to some good laughs!
