Hysterical Answers to the Question, “What’s the Worst White Elephant Gift You’ve Ever Gotten?”

December 21, 2022  Uncategorized

A white elephant gift exchange, Yankee swap or Dirty Santa is a party game where amusing and impractical gifts are exchanged. The goal of a white elephant gift exchange is to entertain rather than give or receive a genuinely nice gift. I’m sharing some of the most hysterical worst white elephant gift ideas that people have actually received so prepare for a jolly good time.

Food and Wine Magazine asked readers to share the absolutely worst, most horrible, embarrassing, weird, over-the-top white elephant gifts they received and people did not hold back!

Here are some of the best!

Squatty Potty…..search it and be appalled. 😮😮

Pickled bologna rope. 🤢

Frozen dead squirrel that one of my friend’s dad’s got while hunting. 🤢

A huge turnip!

A spiral notebook that had already been written in.

A “bird bath” made with a toilet plunger.

Used breast pump,. I didn’t have any kids.

A can of expired sardines. 😆

An 8-pound salami in the shape of a life-sized football.

Single roll of toilet paper and small bottle of lotion. Scarred me for life against white elephant parties. No thanks.

A silver can of “beef in juices.” 😳

Shittens. Shittens Disposable Mitten-Shaped Wet Wipes.

A dated appointment calendar….FROM LAST YEAR.

Real frozen dog poop 💩

A gift card that was already spent.

A partially used body waxing kit.

A huge can of liquid nacho cheese.

A wedding dress. 👰🏼‍♀️

Box of toilet seat protectors. 😩

A used potable, camping, composting toilet! 💩

A 750mL whiskey bottle with about two shots left in it. 😂😂

Warm mashed potatoes.

This makes me want to host a white elephant gift party immediately!

I think it’s safe to say that nobody wants to be on the receiving end of these gifts!

Have you ever been to a white elephant party?

What’s the worst thing you’ve ever given or received?

    I couldn’t go to the party but I heard about it later. A friend received a hamster- opened a box to a small cage with a LIVE hamster- she cursed – it was a CHURCH party!! I would have thrown it across the room!! 🤣😲

    My daughter received a squatty potty from a friend as a wedding gift-apparently that’s her go to wedding gift. I had never even heard of it.
