If you purchase an independently reviewed product or service through a link on our website, Rolling Stone may receive an affiliate commission.
The holidays are in full swing, but there are only a few weeks left to get the right present for everyone your list. Whether you’re shopping for gifts under $100 or ideas for him, there’s no shortage of presents you can pick up online right now. But if you’re participating in a White Elephant gift exchange this year, we found a few of the best gift ideas that are versatile enough for everyone in your group this season.
So what exactly does a White Elephant gift exchange include? Regardless of what you call it, the rules remain the same: Those who participate all contribute a gift to the pile, with someone being designated to choose and unwrap a gift to kick things off. The next person has the choice of unwrapping another gift from the pile or choosing chaos by stealing the gift that was just unwrapped by the previous person.
What is the deadline to get a gift delivered by Christmas?
Amazon hasn’t officially confirmed this yet, but we can extrapolate from previous seasons that holiday delivery on orders placed by December 23 could arrive on the 24th if you choose one-day shipping at checkout. Otherwise, if a product doesn’t have one-day shipping, we recommend ordering by December 14.
The Best White Elephant Gift Ideas
Whether the White Elephant gift is sentimental or a funny gag gift, the goal is to bring along a gift that’s going to make the experience fun for all involved. We’ve compiled a list of the best White Elephant gifts that will make your holiday unforgettable.
1. Mr. Coffee Mug Warmer
Amazon
The coffee or tea lover in your exchange will be happy they grabbed this mug warmer. This device is all about convenience; it’s compact enough to store or take anywhere and easy to use, warming beverages in just two minutes; it even alerts you to when your drink is ready, and there’s a long power cord included so you’re not stressing about where to store it.
Promising Customer Feeback: “I work from home and keeping a warm cup of bliss is a must. I ordered this back in 2014 and three years later it is still a worthy purchase and one that has made life a little bit sweeter.” —LEW
2. Touchscreen Winter Gloves
This gift idea never disappoints. After all, there’s nothing worse than texting or using your phone outside when it’s cold out. These durable touchscreen gloves are made out of a soft, yet 50 percent more conductive, yarn napping with inner lining that keeps your hands comfortable and warm against the bitter elements. They’re also outfitted with a thickened elastic wrist that keeps the glove close to your wrist and to help keep the winter winds out.
Promising Customer Feedback: “I bought these for my husband because he works outside at night in the cold and he loves them. It actually keeps his hands warm and they are very comfortable. They fit perfectly around each finger and he loves the fact you can keep the gloves on while using his phone or tablet. The gloves had stood up to some tuff work and they are still going strong. Highly recommend.” —Ree
3. Apple Air Tag (4-Pack)
Amazon
Even if you’re someone who isn’t particularly forgetful (but especially if you are), an Apple Air Tag is a lifesaving accessory. These small but mighty tags keep track of all your items through the Find My app, as well as a built-in speaker; you can even ask Siri for help. Setting it up is super simple, as it instantly connects with your iPhone or iPad. This pack makes for a perfect White Elephant contribution, whether you or another participant is lucky enough to snag it.
Promising Customer Feedback: “Apple AirTag 4 Pack is a game-changer for anyone who is tired of losing their keys, wallets, or even their dog. These Bluetooth trackers are easy to set up and work seamlessly with your iPhone or iPad. The AirTag 4 Pack is a great value for the price and comes with four AirTags that you can attach to your most important items. The app also provides directional cues to help you find your lost item quickly. I highly recommend it!” —loopghost
4. Silicone Wine Glass Holder
Amazon
Who among us hasn’t wanted to indulge in a glass of wine while we shower? Now, one lucky gift exchange participant can, whether they’re unwinding from a long day or preparing for a quiet night indoors. This silicone wine glass holder will securely mount to a variety of glossy surfaces without the need for suction cups or adhesives. Best of all, you’re not limited to using it just in the shower; simply peel it off the wall and stick it in the kitchen, your home office or wherever else you want.
Promising Customer Feedback: “Sipski works well. Must be used on smooth tub/shower surface. Directions on box state: “Place onto a clean,flat, shiny and dry surface. Smooth out air bubbles with thumbs. Wait 24 hours before using Sipski”. Also box states: “Do not use with glass containers. This product is not intended for use on stone or unglazed tile”. There is a brand of unbreakable 12 oz. wine glasses called TaZa that works beautifully in this holder.” —mountain highness
5. Crux 3QT Digital Air Fryer
Amazon
This one is bound to incite some friendly competition as air fryers are all the rage right now, and for good reason. They’re an easy, and healthier, way to make delicious food with that coveted fried crunch. Crux’s air fryer has a digital display that makes using an air fryer even easier; simply fill the pan, set the temperature and time, and a delicious meal is just minutes away. And hey, maybe they’ll even invite you over for dinner and you can try it for yourself.
Promising Customer Feedback: “It’s easy to use and set for various different kinds of foods from frozen fries and eggrolls to things like steaks and chicken. Its small size is just the right size for portion control or for those with small kitchens like college students. Makes eating healthy much easier and cleaning is a breeze. A few spritzes of Pam or cooking spray, a quick shake, and that’s all it takes really. Absolutely worth the investment.” —Sk8ter274

This set is the perfect accessory for any pampering session, and it’s a great gift that the recipient can start using for the new year ahead.
Promising Customer Feedback: “I suffer from very dry skin, rosacea, and I am acne prone. I am always looking for products that I can use on sensitive skin. This product is amazing. It hydrates, softens, and left me with glowing skin!! It is very affordable and sure beats the price I spend on skin care with some of the other brands. It is very easy to use and it comes in different masque types! It is nicely scented, not sticky and I was very happy not to have any skin reaction or flare up as I have with most products. I would definitely recommend this item.” —oreo mommy

8. We’re Not Really Strangers Card Game
Amazon
Billed as “a purpose-driven card game,” We’re Not Really Strangers sets out to answer the age-old question: How well do you know your best friend? Though optimized for two people, you’re able to play this with up to six people at a time. Participants will pull cards and be forced to answer hard-hitting questions that may spark compelling conversations and deepen connections. Think Cards Against Humanity, but more introspective. It’s a great gift for anyone, but especially the game-lover in your group.
Promising Customer Feedback: “Get to know each other better! This game. Is fun and informative. A good game for couples who enjoy getting to know each other better. Lots of questions that help people know themselves and others. Fosters great communications and conversations. Everyone wins!” —Lizzy
9. Totes Clear Bubble Umbrella
Amazon
It’s on the more practical side of gifts, but if you’ve ever been fortunate to have a bubble umbrella in a rainstorm, you probably already know what a godsend they are. Unlike traditional umbrellas, these work better at keeping you (and any backpacks or bags you may have on you) dry and covered. This umbrella is both wind and rainproof, with a clear canopy that allows you to see clearly through whatever storm you’re braving. Good luck wrapping it, but it’s bound to make everyone laugh at your gift exchange.
Promising Customer Feedback: “Love these umbrellas!! They are sturdy, clear, dome-shaped, and cute. I gave them as gifts to my elderly aunties so they could enjoy the rain without getting water in their face. I got me one too for that same purpose. Love seeing where I’m going in style. Great buy and great price.” —Debbie
