I think homemade spam would be kind of neat.

A deer skull!

You can decorate them festively for jul. Find them in the woods already dried/demeated, or next to the road with a bit more work required. Vultures are your friend there.

How about a Chia Trump? I contributed a Chia Obama some years back and it was a big hit.

find the most embarrasing photo you can of the recipient and put it on a mug. I've done this. It's great.

Just go to Walgreens or shop around eBay.

I got the white elephant gift last year. It was a waving American flag that plays the Star Spangled Banner and My Country Tis of Thee. Here it is.

Cool thing about the flag is that every time I win at BF2 with the AIX mod I hit the button. LOL

I once gave a box with a can of baked beans, a bottle of beano and a can of air freshener.

the guy that got it was pissed. i thought it was epic because he was a raging hot head anyway.

My aunt for like my tenth birthday wrapped up a bunch of food shit from her kitchen. I was embarrassed because of all the guests at my house and my friends. I don't know WTF she was thinking.

Some people don't have the background knowledge to understand what a White Elephant gift is all about. My wife and I went to one many years ago with people that thought the intent was to exchange gifts with actual value. Ooh boy, did we get some looks and the recipient was pissed. We found this hideous homemade lamp with plastic figurines and all kinds of weird hokey shit glued onto the base at a flea market. The perfect white elephant gift. As I said, it did not go over well.

Last year for the family Christmas party my wife's family (this is well over 40 people) holds after Christmas I brought a baby alligator head, a pair of handcuffs and an add water 'date' (the kind that expands when wet) boxed together for the white elephant gift exchange. It was a huge hit. My wife's one nephew's new wife got it and she got a huge kick out of it as did the family. Their dog ended up eating the skin off the alligator head when they weren't home. They came home to just a skull. She said there was a really long pause when she called the vet asking them if they should bring the dog in after eating an alligator head. She was really disappointed that she wouldn't be able to re-gift the alligator head this year.
