Please tell me some fun ideas!! I work with a group of 13 people and we are all alone in the office at night. We are a fun crowd! We really have alot of laughs at work so I am looking to find something funny, but also different to get. My co-workers range 25-45 and there are 6 men, 7 women. We have a 20.00 limit for the swap. Pretty much anything goes... well it has to be legal of course.
 
Maybe a bottle of wine (although I don't drink it so I don't know how much it costs)

movie basket (popcorn, soda, candy, movie rental gift card)

instant scratch tickets

cute Christmas boxers?

robe/slippers
 
We have one for office and we are just too nice!!! I'll do some of the funniest:

Survival Guide to the Holidays book

Singing Reindeer

mine....a 60's era cigarette holder and ashtrays....I filled it with candy.

a multipurpose tool....had a hammer, screwdriver, a couple of other tools on it.(gave DH a hard time when he came out with it but it's come in handy!!)

His gift he came out with this year??? A portable computer vacuum

How about nose hair clippers???

Some silly things....boo boo buddies and bandaids
 

If you have a five below near you, there are definetely funny things there. One is a pooping Reindeer/Santa (poops candy). There are some well, interesting calendars as well--like Sports Illustrated/Dilbert/Sports Illustrated swimsuit,etc.
 
It depends on how "Racey" you want to get.

I bought a talking parrot for my brother from Spencer's. It was $15. It says, "Polly wants a cracker, Polly wants a F....ing cracker "!

You get idea !!! Many different phrases. I laughed my a** off !!!

If you you guys bhave that kind of sense of humor, it would be great. Just buy the batteries first !
 
ended up getting a 20 gift card to Target. A nice santa box, filled with filler xmas confedie, candy and an nice ornament to hold the gift card. I am very happy with my choice. Went a lil over 20, but who cares!
 
One year, someone in our office wrapped up a case of toliet paper (the kind you get from Costco or BJs). Everyone wanted to get the BIG gift, boy were they surprised. It was good for some laughs. And practical too!
 
Last year I ended up w/ some Dawn foaming dish soap and a refill. (packaged together) That lasted me until November!! :sunny:

I got a big bottle of kids bubbles (like you blow) for our exchange this year! We will do it tomorrow.
 
I bought a Chia Pet for a gift exchange once. It was so funny, everyone wanted to trade for it! Whodathunkit? :rotfl:

ch-ch-ch-chia
 
Well the hit was choc hip cookies(coworker makes the best ever!) and wine. LOL but the funny one was a "insulting parrot" it swore its head off and was soo cude :rotfl: that one went around and ended up with the last person :lmao: too funny!
