This reminds me that last year at H's staff Christmas party they did a homemade or locally sourced White Elephant exchange and someone who is also a cattle rancher stuck some frozen steaks in a gift bag. It was the hit of the night haha. She was like "well you guys said homemade!!"
It was the biggest one that everyone fought over.

michyme123 I think your good gift card karma rubbed off on me because I also found a $50 Bed Bath & Betond gift card in my coat pocket today! Haven't worn this coat in 2 years and I have no idea what made me reach into the top pocket, but there it was! Too bad they don't sell wine there;)

Wow billyhorrible I have no words

Well crap. I'm waiting on my car to cool down so I can check fluid levels and stuff. My traction control cut out a half mile from home and I lost any acceleration, then it started shaking horrendously. I'm really really really hoping it's not a cracked engine block, because dealing with that and thus buying a new car are not on the agenda this week, not to mention missing work.

Wait, stinybean, is this a gag gift type of white elephant exchange?

It's a grab bag type thing, not gag.

Advice please: we are doing a secret santa/grab bag type thing for our School Christmas party. It has to be a $20-25 unisex gift. DH keeps saying gift card, but I want to get an actual gift. What would you buy?

Eta: oh & I need to hand it in by Wednesday

I have one of these on Wednesday too for work. Alcohol related gifts are always the most popular with us but we are not at a school
