Funny Coffee Mug

  • Send A Not So Subtle Message To Your Supervisors

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods

Has anyone else noticed that managers and bosses, for some reason, believe pointless meetings are the best way to engage with their staff and promote productivity when really the best way to keep employees working hard is to just let them do their jobs without a million distractions? Okay, I’m glad we’re all on the same page about this. Instead of actually saying something to your boss, you can just give this dirty Santa gift that will hopefully be opened in front of them. Once your boss sees how all your coworkers laugh in agreement, maybe your ridiculous meeting schedule will start to clear up!

User Experience

I've always been frustrated by unnecessary meetings that interrupt my workflow, but this dirty Santa gift gave me an indirect way to voice my discontent. The laughter it elicited from my coworkers when it was opened sent a clear message to our boss without anyone needing to say a word. This gift not only lightened the mood but also subtly hinted at the need for a more efficient meeting schedule.

Toilet Golf

  • A Hole In One Gift!

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment, Novelty

Try not to blame us when everyone’s bathroom breaks suddenly take twice as long, and then, subsequently, when toilet golf gets banned from your office. We’re sorry we introduced everyone to such fun toilet-time activities, only for it to be taken away. Hopefully, you’ll be allowed to take it home, but if not, you might want to order two sets so you can have a backup. After all, how else will you conveniently work on your putting during the day?

Personal Perspective

These novelty toilet golf sets are a source of pure entertainment. I found that once I introduced it, everyone's bathroom breaks got longer, hinting at how much fun they were having. It's so engaging, you might want to consider getting a backup set for home. It's a unique way to casually improve your putting skills throughout the day.

Burritos Tortilla Blanket

  • Get Cozy

  • $$$$$
  • Comfort, Homegoods

Every day when we wrap ourselves up in our regular old blankets, we think about how incredible it would be to turn ourselves into a full-on burrito. Sadly, most of us will never experience the warmth of being wrapped up in a warm tortilla unless, of course, you give this blanket to someone as a Dirty Santa gift. We strongly suggest tossing the blanket into the dryer or towel warmer (if they’re fancy enough to have one) for a few minutes in order to capture that warm, smothered burrito feeling.

Community Feedback

My experience with this blanket was absolutely delightful, providing a warmth akin to a snug burrito. Every time I swaddled myself in it, the fantasy of being wrapped in a toasty tortilla made every day a smidge more whimsical. I found that throwing this blanket into the dryer for a few minutes truly mimicked that smothered burrito sensation, adding an extra layer of comfort. This blanket, while a quirky concept, offered a cozy and unique way to stay warm.

Smell My Nuts Scented 13 oz Mason Jar Candle

  • A Sassy Scented Candle

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods

Gag gifts are great, but more frequently than not, they end up sitting unused in the recipient’s house, gathering dust until they can be re-gifted at the next appropriate event. If you want to give a gift that’s funny and will actually be used, consider this candle. The label gives it a fun splash of humor, while the luxurious scents of banana bread, toasted coconut, and hazelnut will keep their office or home smelling like a gourmet bakery.

First-Hand Impression

In my experience, this candle immediately caused laughter due to its humorous label, appealing to both my teenage son and myself. Furthermore, the scent is truly exceptional, emitting a robust aroma reminiscent of a bakery filled with nut pastries, noticeable even from a considerable distance. However, it's important to meticulously follow the instructions, particularly regarding the removal of the plastic ring, to avoid any mishaps during burning. This candle not only provides a warm, cozy ambiance but also serves as a funny conversation starter, combining practicality with amusement.

Funny Novelty Coffee Mug Compatible with Lego

  • Build An Office Escape

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty, Homegoods, Entertainment

Everyone needs a fun little distraction from work every once in a while. Instead of getting up and heading over to the water cooler for the twentieth time that day, your coworker could enjoy a few minutes of child-like entertainment at their desk. It is an excellent choice for the goofball of the office – that one colleague that you know never really grew up or grew out of playing with toys.

User Experience

For the Lego enthusiast, this cup offers an intriguing blend of functionality and creativity. The bright color and sturdy design are certainly appealing, but the cup falls short when it comes to practicality. The Lego attachment feature is not as versatile as one might hope, with only one side effectively holding the blocks and the handle design proving uncomfortable. While I received compliments on its unique design during Zoom calls, I found that the handle detached unexpectedly, adding an unintended convertibility to the product.

Poo-Pourri Before-You-go Toilet Spray

  • Potty Humor With A Purpose

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

Honestly, we can’t decide if this would be better suited as a Dirty Santa gift or if you should just casually place a few bottles in every bathroom stall in the vicinity of your office. Whichever path you choose, we hope these scented sprays can lead to a more pleasant bathroom experience for all of your coworkers! These bottles are designed to help minimize any unpleasant odors before they occur; just tell your coworkers to add a couple of sprays into the toilet before they go!

Personal Perspective

This novelty bathroom spray has been a humorous yet practical addition to my home and office. These bottles are cleverly designed to mask unpleasant odors, and all it takes is a couple of sprays before using the bathroom. It's certainly made my bathroom experiences more pleasant and less awkward, especially when sharing spaces with others.

Drunk Stoned or Stupid

  • That's What We Call An Ice-Breaker

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment

You might think you know everything there is to know about your coworkers, but do you know what they’re like after they clock out at 5 pm? This fun game could be a very interesting way to unearth your colleagues’ shenanigans, or they can just take it home and play it with their non-work friends. How does the game work? A player pulls a card with a funny or embarrassing situation on it, such as “Wake up with half a burrito in bed” or “Have a 20-minute conversation with Siri” and all the players vote on which one of you is most likely to fit the description.

Community Feedback

This card game is a delightful surprise, offering an amusing way to uncover surprising sides of your friends or colleagues. It operates on the premise of pulling a card that presents a humorous or awkward situation, and everyone votes on who would most likely find themselves in that predicament. I found it a captivating and entertaining method to learn more about those around me, revealing fun and unexpected traits. It goes beyond the typical, often mundane interaction, injecting a much-needed dose of humor and fun. This game, in my opinion, is the perfect blend of amusement and insight, making it an ideal choice for gatherings and parties.

I Do It For The Hos Sweatshirt

  • Ugly Christmas Sweater Winner

  • Comfort, Novelty

What’s a more appropriate Dirty Santa gift than a sweatshirt with a slightly dirty Santa? This on-theme number is available in five colors and sizes up to 5XL, making it suitable for a wide range of office party participants.

First-Hand Impression

This sweatshirt caught my attention with its comical print and the comfortable feel it offers. The fit, contrary to some experiences, turned out to be true to size, making it a great piece for my husband. The quality is commendable, and its super soft texture adds to its appeal. It was a hit at our Christmas themed sweater party, and I must say, it did get a lot of attention.

Wine Glass Bottle Topper

  • It’s Wine O’Clock Somewhere

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

What do you do after a rough day at work? Wine about it. This Dirty Santa gift is budget-friendly as well as absolutely practical for those of us that enjoy a glass (or bottle) of Trader Joe’s wine after a challenging day in the office. Plus, we promise even the least tech-savvy of your coworkers will be sending funny selfies drinking out of this comical wine glass to all their friends on social media.


Elephant Tea Mug

  • Perfect For Tea Parties

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods

Full disclosure: one of our old bosses gave us this mug, and we use it all the time. It’s perfect for tea-drinkers that don’t want to over-steep their tea but are too lazy to get up and throw out their finished tea bags. Yes, we absolutely just revealed our own level of laziness, but we hope some other people out here can potentially relate. Plus, it holds 15 ounces of whatever life-sustaining beverage they choose, almost enough to make their nine to five bearable, we hope.

Personal Perspective

This mug is a constant companion in my home, frequently used for our tea times. The design is simply brilliant, catering to those who desire a precise steeping time without the hassle of removing the tea bag. Admittedly, it exposes my laziness, but I suspect many can identify with this convenience. Its generous 15-ounce capacity accommodates any beverage of choice, offering a comforting volume that helps lighten my daily routine. In short, this mug has become an indispensable part of my tea-drinking experience.

Knit Mitt Beverage Insulating Beer Glove

  • Solving First World Problems, One Silly Gift At A Time

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

From football games to Mardi Gras parades, we can think of so many times this all-in-one glove and beer koozie would be incredibly helpful. Okay, well, at least two times that it would be useful. However, this glove could come in handy if the recipient enjoys a cold brew but dislikes a cold hand. If you’re a knitter looking for some homemade gift inspiration, this could be a fun, although possibly challenging, project to undertake!

Community Feedback

Bought this all-in-one glove and beer koozie for some fun times. Whether it's a football game or a Mardi Gras parade, this glove was a hit. Plus, it keeps your hand warm while your beer stays cold - an absolutely brilliant design. If you love a cold brew but hate the chill on your fingers, this glove is a godsend. Also, knitters searching for a unique, albeit challenging, project might find inspiration in this novelty item.

Drunken' Tower Adult Party Game

  • Get This Party Started

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment

Some of you might have seen similar versions of this game at your local dive bar, with hand-scribbled dares or rules written on the wooden blocks. If you have, then you might already be aware of just how fun the adult version of this favorite childhood game can be. This set is designed specifically as a drinking game and even comes with four shot glasses to really set the stage for a good time. We hope your office party allows drinking because then you can have a chance to play this game before the recipient takes it home!

First-Hand Impression

This adult version of a classic block game provides plenty of entertainment with its unique spin. I've had a blast playing it, with its daring rules scribbled on the wooden blocks adding an unexpected twist to the fun. The inclusion of four shot glasses really amps up the excitement, making this game a hit at any social gathering.

The Original Wine Condoms

  • Funny And Functional

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty, Gadgets & Gear

Useful gag gifts can be challenging to find. Useful gag gifts that are also slightly uncomfortable might be even rarer. But here it is, we finally found the perfect awkward yet functional gag gift: the wine condom. Realistically most of us shouldn’t be finishing entire bottles of wine by ourselves (or I guess with others if that’s how you live your life), but it’s almost impossible to keep it from going bad before you finish it. This bottle stopper can keep the recipient’s wine fresher for longer and get at least a few awkward chuckles out of them when they unwrap it.

User Experience

In my experience, this wine condom is the ideal combination of humor and utility. This product, strange as it may sound, serves as an effective, and slightly embarrassing, wine bottle stopper. This gadget certainly raised eyebrows and elicited a few awkward laughs when I first used it. However, the functionality of keeping my unfinished wine fresher for longer can't be overlooked. Although it's a gag gift, this wine condom has proven to be more useful than I initially thought it would be.

Prank Pack | Wrap Your Real Gift in a Funny Prank Gift Box

  • Guaranteed To Get Some Laughs

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

Speaking of unwrapping, we might have found the perfect alternative to the classic gag-gifts: gag-gift boxes. These funny prank gift boxes allow you to wrap up your completely normal gift in a hilarious spoof present packaging. Your coworkers will get a hoot out of the hilarious packaging, only to realize later that they don’t have to try to figure out how to put dust boots on their dog or cat. However, if anyone has actually put dusting shoes on their dogs, please send us videos; we’d love to see how that went!

Personal Perspective

Best prank I've ever pulled, these gag-gift boxes had my coworkers in stitches over their absurd designs before revealing the normal gifts inside. I personally haven't tried putting dusting shoes on my pets, but the ludicrous imagery alone from this box was worth every laugh.

Flip Top Fruit Infuser Water Bottle

  • Hydrate Deliciously

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods, Food & Drinks

Drinking the recommended eight glasses of water a day can be challenging for some people, especially those of us who just think water tastes bland. Instead of reaching for another sugary beverage, this infusion water bottle encourages users to enhance their water with fruit’s natural sweetness and flavors. Staying hydrated never seemed so easy or delicious until now!

Community Feedback

This water bottle has served me well since I started using it in January, though I've found it crucial to ensure the top plug is clicked securely to prevent any leakage. Cleaning this bottle requires some attention to detail, especially with a soft brush for the plug and filter parts where residue can build up over time. Despite some minor hiccups like unexpected dribbles if not held just right and a random crack appearing at the bottom, it's been a handy companion, particularly for keeping me hydrated with my favorite fruit-infused water.

That's Bullshit Button

  • Call It As You See It

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty, Gadgets & Gear

Using this button in the office may or may not get your co-workers fired, depending on the situation. But if they go down, we’re sure it will be a hilarious descent into the flames. Or, they can just take it home and hit it whenever they think about being called in for mandatory overtime or being passed over for a promotion they were over-qualified for. Let’s all be honest with each other; most jobs have some level of bull shark associated with them, so this button will be appropriate for all of your colleagues!

First-Hand Impression

In my experience, this button has added a dash of humor to the otherwise mundane office environment. Given its novelty, it's been a source of entertainment, especially during those stressful days where thoughts of being overlooked for promotions or called in for mandatory overtime loom large. It might be a simple gadget, but it's a great way to momentarily lighten the atmosphere and provide a shared laugh amongst colleagues, even if it does carry a hint of workplace realities.

Punderdome: A Card Game for Pun Lovers

  • Suns Out Puns Out

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment, Novelty

We already know all the dads in your office Dirty Santa gift exchange will desperately try to steal this game to show off their incredible pun skills. But you don’t have to be a dad joke connoisseur in order to have fun with this game! Anyone willing to be silly and make bad jokes will have a blast playing Punderdome. It could be a particularly fun choice of gifts if you work for a communications, writing, or PR company— people that work with their words might really enjoy clever wordplay!

User Experience

I'm having a blast with this Suns Out Puns Out game, it's a delightful playground for anyone who appreciates clever wordplay. You don't necessarily need to be a dad joke maestro to enjoy it, just a willingness to be silly and make puns is enough. This game has been particularly enjoyable for me as I work in a field that involves a lot of writing and communication. The fun in concocting creative puns and the laughter that follows makes this game a standout in my collection.

Funny Coasters For Drinks- Set of 6

  • Rings Belong On Fingers, Not Tables

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods, Novelty

Help your colleagues prevent water stains on their wood furniture in the funniest way possible with this set of six novelty coasters. Each one has a different sarcastic saying on it, ranging from “Use an effing coaster (please)” to more adult phrases our boss would not approve of (you’ll just have to click and see for yourself). Don’t worry, though; there is a PG-rated “Home Sweet Home” coaster to cover up the office inappropriate ones with when your boss walks by.

Personal Perspective

I'm really getting a kick out of this set of novelty coasters. They're not only practical for preventing water stains, but also add a dash of humor to our office environment with their sarcastic sayings. The range of phrases keeps things interesting, some are cheeky enough to raise eyebrows, while others, like the PG-rated "Home Sweet Home", are suitable for all. I enjoy the element of surprise when guests pick up their drinks to reveal the message underneath. This set of coasters has definitely added a layer of fun to our daily coffee breaks.

Just Smoked A Pound Of Weed Mints

  • Keeping It Fresh

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty, Food & Drinks

Will this gift go down well with all your colleagues? Probably not, unless you work in Colorado or at a dispensary. If that doesn’t describe your working situation, then buy these at your own risk (and it’s not our fault if you get in trouble with HR). To be fair, these are just completely normal wintergreen mints, so hopefully, your coworkers will find them just as funny as we do!

Community Feedback

My experience with these gag mints was absolutely enjoyable. The quality was just as expected and they sparked many laughs when given as a gift during the holiday season. Despite being a bit pricier than what I would typically spend on mints, they were totally worth it for the amusement they provided. The packaging was small and cute, fitting the gag theme perfectly. Gifting these mints to several people turned out to be a great decision as they were a big hit.

Pooping Dogs 1000 Piece Puzzle

  • What A Puzzling Choice

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment, Novelty

If you can get past the fact that one of the “pooping dogs” pictured in this puzzle is a fox, then this could be a hilariously awkward Dirty Santa gift for your office pals. If you can’t get past it, then we’re sorry we even brought this item to your attention. Please, continue reading as we try to regain your trust with more weird gifts.

First-Hand Impression

I'm quite pleased with this puzzle; it's not only hilarious with its quirky doggy-doo theme, but also surprisingly high-quality with thick, well-fitted pieces. Even though it's a funny gag gift, it provided hours of enjoyable puzzling and laughter, making it a favorite among our puzzle collection.

Desktop Boxing: Knock Out Your Stress!

  • A Knock-Out Gift

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment, Novelty

Most jobs generally don’t let you leave in the middle of the day to go to a kickboxing class in order to deal with your work-related stress. We know, that’s super inconsiderate of them. But, thankfully, we might have found a solution for your most wound-up colleagues. This desktop punching bag allows them to release some of their workplace tension from the convenience of their cubicle!

User Experience

I've experienced firsthand this product's appeal to both friends and loved ones who enjoy a lighthearted gift. This item brought a sense of fun and humor to my social circles, especially those with a flair for sports like boxing or MMA. The charm of this product is not limited to the athletic crowd; it became a favorite desk accessory among my friends. While its amusement value is undeniable, I did find the price point a bit steep for its purpose.

Sloth Dreams Patience Putty

  • Squeeze The Stress Away

  • $$$$$
  • Entertainment, Novelty

If you’re looking for a less aggressive but equally as stress-relieving gift for your office Dirty Santa or white elephant gift exchange, this squeezable putty could be the answer, especially for sloth lovers. Plus, at less than $10, it’s a pretty cheap (but still entertaining) gift that is eligible for Amazon Prime shipping if you need a last-minute option.

Personal Perspective

In my experience, this putty is an excellent stress-reliever, providing a calming effect whenever I squeeze it at my desk. The adorable sloth design adds a fun touch, making it a hit with children as well as certain elementary students who need assistance with emotional regulation. Despite initial concerns about the price, I've found its durability and therapeutic benefits to be worth every penny, even four years into heavy usage. The putty's pleasant scent and great consistency further enhance its appeal, ensuring it's always a welcome addition to any quiet play or relaxation session.

Pack of 3 Sushi Socks

  • Sock It To Them

  • $$$$$
  • Comfort

We love a creative packaging moment, and this pack of sushi socks might just take the cake. This set includes three pairs of patterned socks rolled up to look like classic sushi delicacies. The fun and colorful patterns will look super sleek, peeking out from under your coworkers’ suit pants. Just to clarify, they are technically men’s socks, so it might be a good choice for those who work in a male-dominated office.

Community Feedback

I'm pleased with the clever design of these socks that mimic the look of sushi. My teen niece, a sushi enthusiast, was thrilled with these as a Christmas gift, appreciating the creative presentation so much that she was reluctant to unroll them. I did note that after their first wash, these socks shrunk somewhat, but my son, another recipient, continues to enjoy wearing them despite this. He finds the socks comfortable and has even considered leaving them on display due to their unique design. I gifted the same socks to my sushi-loving best friend, and she was equally enamored. These sushi socks are a quirky, fun, and good-quality gift that brings joy to the recipients.

'Fries on the Fly' Universal Car French Fry Holder

  • Making Fast Food Even More Convenient

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

This french fry holder is less than $10. We repeat this french fry holder is less than $10.

It is sized to fit in most standard cupholders and is an excellent choice for anyone that enjoys a little fast food on their way home from work. If you’re looking for a cheap, gender-neutral, and unique Christmas gift or your office gift exchange, we can’t think of anything more appropriate than easy access to fries.

First-Hand Impression

The design is compact enough to fit in most standard cup holders, preventing any unfortunate fry losses into the depths of my car.

Anyone familiar with spin the bottle will understand the basis for this game. Simply pour some alcohol into the included shot glass and spin the arrow to see who has to drink it! We take no responsibility for how the night goes after this is unwrapped, but we hope you all have fun!

User Experience

I'm someone who enjoys a bit of light-hearted mischief at office parties, and this spin-the-bottle novelty game certainly added a new layer of unpredictability to our last Christmas gathering. Upon unwrapping this gift, we quickly filled the included shot glass, spun the arrow, and laughter ensued as we all waited in suspense to see who the unlucky, or lucky, drinker would be.

Singing Dancing Christmas Tree: Animated Christmas Character

  • Deck The Halls

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

Do you remember the early 2000s when singing novelty goods we’re all the rage (i.e., that singing wall fish everyone seemed to have?). Well, everything from the noughties is coming back into style, so we may as well bring back singing, animatronic gifts as well. This fuzzy creature sings and dances along to “Rockin’ Around The Christmas Tree,” a very fitting choice for a Christmas tree to sing, in our opinion.

Personal Perspective

In my experience, this toy was a delightful Christmas present for the kids. It is soft, as described, and the kids found the singing and dancing features entertaining, although it was slightly louder than expected. I did encounter an issue with the batteries being dead upon arrival due to the switch being on during transit, but once replaced, the toy worked perfectly. I was so impressed with its quality and appeal that I even considered getting one for myself. Despite a minor hiccup with the batteries, the overall fun and joy this toy brought to the kids was well worth it.

TriceraTaco Holder Ultimate Dinosaur Taco Stand

  • Lets Taco-Bout It

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods

Let’s taco-bout Tuesday night dinners, shall we? In many major cities and homes across the country, Tuesdays are synonymous with one thing— tacos. We, however, would like to petition everyone to start eating tacos every day, not just on Tuesdays. To make it easier, we thought we would introduce this triceratops taco holder that fits not just one but two tacos and officially might be our favorite thing on the planet.

Community Feedback

This dinosaur-themed chip and dip holder has brought joy and laughter to both my friends and family. Its quirky design not only makes it a great conversation starter, but also a fun way to serve chips and dip. I've found it holds a good amount of food, and cleaning it is a breeze due to the absence of corners. Whether for a dinosaur enthusiast, a taco lover, or someone who appreciates novel gifts, this product has been a delightful addition to our gatherings.

Wearable Blanket with Sleeves and Pocket

  • Get Cozy

  • $$$$$
  • Comfort, Homegoods

When it comes to winter weather, many of us just want to curl up at home and watch movies on the couch with a cut of hot chocolate. You could help make that cozy night possible with this impossibly soft wearable blanket.

Seriously though, we know these were kind of a joke of the 2010s, but now that a decade has passed, can we finally admit that they’re super convenient? Generally, we roll ourselves up like a burrito in our blankets, but then we have to remove our arms from the safety and security of the burrito in order to use our phone or drink a beverage. Thankfully, this blanket has sleeves, meaning the recipient’s arms can stay warm and still reach for the remote to change the channel.

First-Hand Impression

My winter nights have transformed into cozy experiences with this soft wearable blanket. The sleeves are a particularly thoughtful feature, allowing me to stay wrapped up like a burrito while freely using my phone or sipping hot chocolate. This blanket, far from being a joke of the past, has proven to be a convenient and warm companion during movie nights.

Mexican Hot Chocolate - Artisanal with Organic Cacao Beans

  • A Winter Staple

  • $$$$$
  • Food & Drinks

No Christmas season is complete without at least 20 million cups of hot cocoa, and no, we are not exaggerating. Okay, we are definitely exaggerating, but you have to understand hot chocolate is one of the few things that can make winter weather more bearable. This artisanal and organic hot chocolate mix creates a decadent treat that all chocolate lovers will enjoy.

User Experience

I've gained a considerable appreciation for this cocoa after using it for some time. Its rich, creamy texture and the subtle hint of cinnamon enhance its deep cocoa flavor, making it a delightful addition to my morning coffee. However, I did find the sweetness to be a bit excessive for my taste, and the suggested proportions on the canister may need some adjusting to suit individual preferences. Despite these minor drawbacks, this cocoa has an attractive packaging and is worth the price, especially if you're craving for a cinnamon-infused hot chocolate.

Bath and Shower Acrylic Cupholder for Wine, Beer, and More

  • Three Cheers For Shower Beers

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods, Novelty, Gadgets & Gear

From drinking their coffee while taking a morning rinse to unwinding with a glass of wine in the bath, we’re sure the recipient of this gift will find at least a cup-le of reasons to use it. It could also potentially fit phones for those who want to scroll through Instagram while indulging in a decadent bubble bath. Or for guys that don’t want to miss a second of the game when they take their evening shower.

Personal Perspective

This product held up well and stayed put exactly where I positioned it. My concern is about finding replacement adhesive if I ever move to a new place, as I'm unsure of what to search for. I experienced an issue with the product arriving broken, though, which was disappointing. Aside from that, the product's durability is commendable.

With its dynamic capabilities - serving as a stylus, screwdriver, level, and ruler - it's proven to be a no-frills, highly practical tool I've come to rely on, making it my third purchase of the very same item.

Party Flasks- Santa Drink Beverage Dispenser

  • Deck The Halls!

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty

There are many ways to spread Christmas cheer. Buddy the Elf might have suggested singing loud for all to hear, but we’re going to depart from Will Ferrel’s hilarious Christmas classic and instead suggest passing around a Christmas stocking full of booze. Do you want to give that gift that everyone will steal and swap for during your Bad Santa, Yankee Swap, or White Elephant party? You might want to purchase the four-pack of this silly stocking just in case everyone starts fighting over it!

First-Hand Impression

This novelty Christmas stocking filled with booze truly captures the festive spirit in a unique way. Having personally used it during a White Elephant party, I can attest to its popularity, as everyone was keen to swap their gifts in order to snag this amusing item. Despite its humoristic appeal, the four-pack also serves a practical purpose, adding a delightful twist to traditional holiday celebrations.

Carhartt Men's Knit Cuffed Beanie

  • Stay Warm And Stylish

  • $$$$$
  • Comfort

Do you work with a large number of young people and want to seem effortlessly cool in front of them, so they help you export your word documents to PDFs? Carhartt beanies have become a staple of millennials and older gen z-ers. You’ll see them all over Instagram, from downtown skaters posting videos of their tricks to engaged couples taking semi-professional photos at pumpkin patches. We suggest going with one of the classic colors to keep the gift gender-neutral and appropriate for any recipient. After all, no one likes frost-bitten ears in the wintertime!

User Experience

I recently started wearing this Carhartt beanie and instantly noticed how it not only kept me warm but also made me feel more connected to the younger crowd. This beanie has become a favorite accessory among millennials and gen-z-ers, making it a trendy and practical addition to any winter outfit. I also appreciate the variety of classic colors available, keeping the style versatile and suitable for any gender. Whether I'm out practicing skateboarding tricks or simply enjoying a stroll in a pumpkin patch, this beanie adds a dash of youthful flair. Despite its fashionable appeal, the main advantage remains its ability to protect my ears from the winter chill.

Funny Dish Towel, Every Now And Then I Fall Apart

  • For Clean Ups When Everything Falls Apart

Dish towels are always useful, at least for people that spend time cooking or cleaning in their kitchens. There is no shame for the take-out food people reading this, but you might not be inclined to use dish towels. Either way, this novelty dish towel reminds us that it’s okay to fall apart every once in a while. After all, if tacos can fall apart and still be one of the most wonderfully delicious foods on the planet, then all of us can have some breakdowns and still be awesome, boss babes and bros, right?

Personal Perspective

This novelty dish towel not only serves its purpose in the kitchen, but also delivers a delightful reminder that it's perfectly normal to fall apart sometimes, just like our favorite tacos. Its charming design and relatable message make it a standout in my kitchen, adding a unique touch to mundane cleaning tasks.

  • Funny And Functional

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty, Food & Drinks

Some of you might look at this and immediately think, why are they promoting sunscreen in the winter? First of all, you should be wearing sunscreen all year round to protect your precious skin. Second of all, these are fake sunscreen tubes! They’re actually sneaky flasks, perfect for picnics in the park, sunny days at the beach, weekend festivals, or anywhere else that you’re technically not supposed to be drinking (or where they charge $15 for drinks).

Community Feedback

As an avid outdoor enthusiast, I found these deceptive sunscreen tubes to be both hilarious and surprisingly practical. Their design is perfect for inconspicuously carrying refreshments to various events, saving me from exorbitant drink prices. Despite their novelty appeal, these tubes effectively served their purpose, making my leisurely outings more enjoyable and definitely more affordable.

You don’t deserve to deal with fraying computer, tablet, phone, or headphone cables, and neither do any of your colleagues. Spare everyone the annoyance of broken cables with this set of adorable, cartoonish cable protectors. We are currently looking at the little crack in our laptop charger cable, wondering why we didn’t know about these things sooner. We’re particularly fond of the avocado wearing a beret, but the entire collection is absolutely adorable!

First-Hand Impression

I'm constantly battling fraying cables for my electronic devices, so this set of cartoonish cable protectors has been a welcome addition to my tech arsenal. They are not only incredibly cute with designs like an avocado wearing a beret, but they also offer much-needed protection for my computer, tablet, phone, and headphone cables. Using these, I've noticed a significant decrease in cable wear and tear, and I can't help but wonder why I hadn't discovered them sooner. While each piece in the collection is adorable, the delightful designs also serve a practical purpose - reducing the annoyance of broken cables.

Sock Keeper- No Sock Left Behind

  • Solving Weird Problems One Sock At A Time

  • $$$$$
  • Novelty, Gadgets & Gear

Is anyone else constantly perplexed as to where all your socks have gone? We’re roughly 67% positive a little gnome lives in our dryer and consistently steals single socks, leaving us with dozens of unpaired loners in our sock drawer. Thankfully, you can help protect your friends and coworkers from the same fate with these sock savers. Simply slide your pair of socks through the bear to keep them together throughout the wash and dry cycles. If this doesn’t help save the recipients’ socks, then we’re 100% positive about that dryer gnome.

User Experience

Great little invention, these sock savers have been my knight in shining armor against the mysterious disappearance of socks. I used to be consistently puzzled by my single, lonely socks, but these bear-shaped gadgets have given them a trustworthy companion to journey through the wash and dry cycles. With a simple slide of my paired socks through the bear, I've been able to keep my socks paired and ready for wear. While I can't completely rule out the existence of a mischievous dryer gnome, these sock savers have certainly given me a fighting chance.

Digital Coin Bank Savings Jar

  • For Penny Pinchers

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear

Keeping track of loose change just got significantly easier. Finally, instead of just floating around at the bottom of your coworker’s couch or cupholders, they can not only have a designated place to keep all their coins, but they can keep track of how much they have. Will it be enough for an all-inclusive week-long vacation in the Bahamas? Probably not. Will it potentially be enough to upgrade their coffee from grande to venti? We think so.

Personal Perspective

Best little purchase I've made recently! This bank has been a huge hit with my niece and her friends; they've turned saving coins into a fun competition. While it can require some effort to get the coins in, the joy they get from watching their savings grow is worth it. The only hiccup is that it sometimes confuses dimes and pennies, but it's a small price to pay for the excitement and savings lessons they're getting.

Handheld Battery-Operated Electric Milk Frother

  • For The Latte Connoisseur

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear, Food & Drinks

We know at least one of your coworkers is consistently late because they have to pick up their favorite caffeinated beverage in the morning, and they never allow enough time to get through the line and get to work on time. Now, your colleagues can make their bougie oat milk cappuccinos from the comfort of their own home and maybe even manage to clock in on time! Okay, they’ll probably still be late, but we can dream.

Community Feedback

I'm quite pleased with this frother, it's been an excellent tool for more than just frothing milk. I've found it handy for things like mixing my morning collagen powder into coffee, and it does a better job than I ever could by hand. Despite a few minor issues like a flimsy stand and the need to be careful with the thin stem, this frother has been a reliable and easy-to-use addition to my kitchen, offering great value for its price.

Rechargeable Reading Light

  • For Bookworms

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear

You could light up a room— or at least, light up a book with this handy rechargeable reading light. Many bookworms encounter the same problem when it comes to nighttime reading: do you risk falling asleep with your light on and running up your electric bill, or try to squeeze a bedside lamp onto your table that’s already covered with books? This easy-to-use and portable reading light could solve this challenging dilemma and hopefully help keep your favorite reader’s electric bill down.

First-Hand Impression

I found this rechargeable reading light to be an indispensable tool for my late-night reading sessions. No more juggling between keeping the light on all night or attempting to cram a bedside lamp onto my already crowded book table. This reading light is not only easy to use but also extremely portable, perfect for a bookworm like me who's always on the go. It illuminates my books perfectly, making nighttime reading a breeze. Plus, it's a relief knowing it's not contributing to a higher electric bill.

Dash Mini Waffle Maker Machine

  • Bite-Sized Happiness

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear, Food & Drinks

Excuse me, mini waffle maker, why weren’t we aware you existed? As a huge fan of breakfast food but not a big fan of eating in the morning, this little waffle maker could be the answer to all of our problems. Or at least the breakfast one. These mini waffles are perfect for making waffle breakfast sandwiches or easy make-and-go snacks, especially if the recipient has some pre-made waffle mix sitting around. This is what meal prep is all about, right?

User Experience

This mini waffle maker has been a delightful addition to my kitchen. As someone who loves breakfast food but struggles with early morning appetite, these bite-sized waffles have been a perfect solution.

Our Adventure Fund, Wooden Vacation Shadow Box

  • Use That PTO!

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods

Despite what our bosses might think, all of us worker bees could definitely benefit from a few more days off or even actually using all that personal time off you’ve accumulated over the years. Give your coworkers a little reminder that it’s okay to take vacations with this cool adventure fund shadow box. From a lovely weekend at a bed & breakfast to a cross country road trip, this adventure fund box could help keep your colleagues on track for their travel goals!

Mini Portable Charger for iPhone

  • Keep Electronics Charged With Ease

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear

Have you ever met anyone that is so on top of their game, their phone never drops beneath 30% charged? We haven’t either. It might be a universal truth that our phones always seem to die at the most inconvenient times, i.e., when there is no charger or outlet to be found. This mini portable charger could save the day for your friends and their phones. It is compatible with all iPhones, and you don’t even need a cord to use it!

Community Feedback

From my experience, this portable charger has its pros and cons. On the positive side, it is designed elegantly, easily recharges my iPhone, and holds enough charge to revive a dead phone back to around 90%. However, it falls short of providing a full 100% battery boost, needing its own recharge after reaching about 90%. Additionally, the charger's connection to my iPhone 8 Plus feels loose, occasionally requiring some force to maintain the connection. Finally, despite its compact size, it's a bit bulkier than I'd like, but overall, it serves its purpose quite effectively.

Acupressure Mat and Pillow Set for Back/Neck Pain Relief

  • Post-Work Relief

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear

Sitting hunched over a desk all day isn’t good for anyone’s back, but sadly, it is the reality many of us face at our office jobs. However, you could offer your friends and coworkers a bit of relief by throwing one of these acupressure pads into the Bad Santa gift pile. The mat is designed to relieve muscle tension and tightness by lying on it for 10 to 30 minutes a day.

First-Hand Impression

I've been dealing with chronic back pain for years, and this mat, initially appearing like a medieval torture device, turned out to be a surprising relief. At first, the pointed plastic bits felt like a thousand needles, but with time, they seemed to dissolve into a gentle, warm sensation that relaxed my muscles like nothing else before. While I wish the mat was bigger to cover my whole body and came with a storage bag for convenience, its effect on reducing my pain and improving my sleep quality is undeniable.

Butter & Cheese Huggers

  • Protect The Cheese!

  • $$$$$
  • Food & Drinks

Odds are at least one of the people participating in your friend or office gift exchange is obsessed with cheese. To be fair, you probably already know exactly who it is (cheese lovers aren’t exactly a subtle group, are they?). These food huggers are perfect for keeping their cheese fresher, longer and preventing that dreaded mold from taking their beloved snack away.


Spiced Wine Mix

  • ‘Tis The Season for Wine!

  • $$$$$
  • Food & Drinks

Like eggnog, candy canes, and sugar cookies, mulled wine is a Christmas staple for many people. This mix makes it easier than ever to make delicious spiced wine, and it has helpful information for portioning out individual servings! Whether you’re looking for Bad Santa or Secret Santa gifts, this seasonal delicacy is sure to please the recipient and the crowd they make it for.


Olde Thompson Everything Bagel Seasoning

  • Trader Joe’s Dupes For The Win

  • $$$$$
  • Food & Drinks

If you haven’t tried everything bagel seasoning, you might want to consider picking up a pack for yourself as well. This mix of deliciousness adds the perfect touch to an incredible variety of foods, from avocado toast to salads. We swear this seasoning can make your most basic breakfast look and taste like a five-star gourmet brunch.

Community Feedback

I must admit, this seasoning has become a staple in my kitchen. It's exceptionally versatile, enhancing the taste of everything from avocado bagels to pasta dishes. I've even discovered that it's perfect for creating a crust on chicken, adding a delightful flavor combination. Unfortunately, its salt content was a bit of a surprise as it wasn't listed in the ingredient list online. Also, be aware that this seasoning seems to be in high demand, as it often tends to be out of stock.

Upgraded Waterproof Shower Phone Holder

  • For Some Shower Entertainment

  • $$$$$
  • Gadgets & Gear

Some of the men reading this might not understand why women take so long in the shower. Between washing your hair and shaving your legs, somehow 40 minutes have passed, and you still haven’t even rinsed out your conditioner yet. To be honest, we always take our phones in the shower if we’re undertaking multiple grooming activities, and we know we’re not the only ones. This phone holder is specifically designed for people that want to be able to watch their favorite showers or scroll through Instagram while they relax or painstakingly try to navigate the contours of their knee caps (it’s not easy, y’all!).

First-Hand Impression

Love the convenience this phone holder brings to my shower routine. It keeps my phone secure while I'm juggling shampoo, conditioner, and a razor. I no longer risk dropping my phone in water when I want to watch a show or browse my social media in the midst of all the lathering and rinsing.

Beehive Crystal Honey Jar

  • It’s The Bee's Knees

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods

You don’t have to break the bank to give a luxurious gift. This crystal beehive honey jar looks like it belongs in a celebrity’s super curated kitchen but would look just as stylish in any of your colleagues’ or friends’ houses. It holds roughly 12 ounces of delicious honey and comes with a wooden wand for serving.

User Experience

This honey pot, reminiscent of an old-fashioned beehive complete with bee design, adds a charming accent to any table. In addition to its aesthetic appeal, it also serves as a practical piece, with a convenient cutout in the cover to accommodate the wooden honey dipper. The pot is solid and has a pleasing weight to it, making it perfect for holding honey for your coffee or tea. Although not airtight, filling it around 3/4 full prevents the honey from clumping. The only minor drawback encountered was a broken dipper, but the overall craftsmanship and quality of the pot overshadowed this issue.

Cotton Linen Throw Pillow Case - Dwight, You Ignorant S...

  • $$$$$
  • Homegoods, Comfort

We guess not all of your coworkers may be fans of The Office, but we’re almost positive at least one of them has watched every episode at least five times (except the last season, which was hard enough to watch the first time). This hilarious pillowcase will be a welcome addition to any Office-aficionado’s home decor and will definitely make a bold statement! The pillow insert isn’t included, but that just makes it easier to wrap the gift!

Personal Perspective

When I first laid my eyes on this pillow cover, its unique design instantly reminded me of my favorite scenes from The Office. This pillow cover doesn't come with stuffing, which is quite advantageous as I can choose the type of pillow that fits my comfort. Although the fabric feels slightly rougher than regular cotton, it's still a great piece of decor that sparks conversations and brightens my living room.

Dirty Santa Gift FAQs

What Is the Difference Between White Elephant and Dirty Santa?

Overall, White Elephant, Dirty Santa, and Yankee Swap are all pretty much the same basic gift exchange game. To play, all participants purchase a gift within an agreed-upon price range, then wrap their gift with no names or identifiers and place it in an agreed-upon location. Participants draw numbers to determine the order in which they pick gifts. The player that picked #1 picks any gift they would like from the pile. Then, player #2 can choose to steal the gift from player #1 or select a new gift. If the gift is stolen from player #1, they can choose a new gift from the pile; however, they can’t immediately steal back the present that was stolen from them. Each gift can be stolen a maximum of three times.

Do You Wrap Dirty Santa Gifts?

You should definitely wrap your Dirty Santa gifts! Part of the fun of Dirty Santa is the players have no idea what is in the present that they choose, so wrapping your gifts is necessary to keep the items mysterious.

How Many Times Can a Gift be Stolen In Dirty Santa?

In order to keep the gift exchange fair, most people implement a rule that players cannot steal gifts more than three times in Dirty Santa. Some people also play a version of the game where a person cannot be stolen from more than three times.

How Do You Zoom Dirty Santa?

It is totally possible to host a Dirty Santa gift exchange over zoom, all you need is a little bit of planning and a pad of paper for note-taking! You’ll have to invite all your attendees to a zoom or google hangout at an agreed-upon time to get started. Decide on a price limit and have everyone wrap their gifts (or a picture of the gifts) and have it in view during the video chat. As the host, you’ll have to do some note-taking to keep track of all the gift swaps and exchanges. We suggest setting up a table with all of the participants’ names, where you can record their assigned number for the drawing order, the gift they brought for the game (once it’s been opened and revealed), then columns for the first recipient, and up to three “stolen” columns. To get your game started:

  1. Use a random number generator or pull numbers out of a hat to assign all the participants an order for gift selecting. As the host, you’ll want to record which participant was assigned which number.
  2. As usual, #1 is allowed to select their gift first. With everyone’s gifts in view, #1 chooses a person to unwrap their present, and the host should record what gift #1 selected.
  3. Then, participant #2 can choose to steal the gift from #1 or select a new person to unwrap their gift. The host should record the results in the appropriate column to keep track.
  4. If someone’s gift is stolen, they can not immediately steal the gift back (where’s the fun in that?), but they can choose an unopened present or steal a gift from another player.
  5. Players can steal gifts up to three times. If participant #1 ends up with their first gift at the end of the game, generally, they are given another chance to steal a gift from another player.
  6. Once all the gifts have been assigned, everyone will mail or deliver their presents to the appropriate participant!
