Ah,
White Elephant gift exchanges . They’re *chef's kiss* peak
chaotic-neutral holiday activity. Not to mention, an excuse to step outside of the confines of regular
gift-giving , and scratch your “as seen on TV” itch. Because maybe you don't need a candle that looks and smells like a bowl of childhood cereal, but someone you know definitely does. That's why we've scouted the absolute best White Elephant gifts under $20 on Amazon.
Shopping playfully and
on a budget has never been so breezy. Unless you're an emotional magpie (hi, same) with a closet of gimmicks to regift, you’re going to need a new arsenal of affordable grab-bag treasures. Tap on through for this year's delightfully silly bounty, which includes but is not limited to reusable wax wraps, a cinephile's keychain, and a veritable pizza garden. Yum.
