What is the craziest, funniest white elephant gift that you have ever seen or received?
This party is for teens, but all ideas are welcome...
For those of you who don't know what a white elephant gift is, it is something that is from around the house, it costs no money, but imagination is always a plus!

No fabulous ideas but this is how you unload the gift from 5 yrs ago hidden in the basement.
A vase, picture frame, still unwrapped DVD you've never viewed, that itchy scarf a relative sent you----------not that I have any of these tucked away--------
Re-gifting at its finest!

Make them yourself by painting green dollar signs on dry white (great northern) beans.
Throw them in a ziploc bag with this written on a label and attached to the bag.
Millionaire Seeds
Money Tree Starter Kit
Plant seeds with dollar sign up, in fertile soil.
If you plant the seed wrong, the tree will grow upside down.
For best results, shout "I WANT TO BE A MILLIONAIRE" while watering.

What about this one? (FOUND ONLINE)
My brother (the joker in the family), took a close up 8X10 picture of his face and then he autographed it. It was framed and was a big hit. The next year, that picture came back on a t-shirt!
