Get it from Amazon for $10.
2. A mini inflatable tube guy because there is *no way* they can look at this little dude and not giggle. If they're feeling extra goofy, imitating him is ~encouraged.~
3. A Shrek toothpaste cap they can attach straight to their tube of toothpaste so they can tell all their friends they've been brushing their teeth with Shrek's 💩.

Promising review: "This was the perfect stocking stuffer!" —Addie

5. Some dehydrated water for the times when they are packing light but know they are bound to get thirsty. Instead of carrying a heavy jug of water, they can just carry this little can and fill it with water to rehydrate it whenever they need!
Promising review: "Gave this for a Christmas gift to a relative…he is still speechless…from laughing! He shows it to everyone he knows. I would give this 10 stars if possible…yeah, a bit pricey for an empty can but more fun than giving a pair of socks for sure!" —B burton
Get it from Amazon for $13.88.
6. An anti-stress desktop punching bag so they can take out all their rage against Kevin, the office pain-in-the-butt, in a safe and controlled manner that won't end with a trip to HR.
Promising review: "I bought this as a white elephant gift for Christmas in the office. I anticipated it to be thin, flimsy, and cheap. However, it was just the opposite. My coworker has it sectioned to her glass wall and people use it all the time. The section is strong, and the item itself feels very sturdy. I was pleasantly surprised, and it was one of the favorite gifts of the day." —Vicki McClain
Get it from Amazon for $22.95 (available in two colors).
8. A giant waffle…blanket perfect for anyone who eats waffles on the daily and has been known to scream "leggo my Eggo" if anyone tries to take a bite. Now they can finally live out their dreams of being fully surrounded by a delicious breakfast food.
Promising review: "My grandson loves this waffle lightweight throw. He got up and made sure everyone could see it. Well made. Not too heavy, just right for watching TV on a cooler night. This is the third unique one I purchased. Now all three grandsons have one, each being different. Love it." —becky spinks
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in five sizes and seven versions).
9. A container of nothing, perfect for someone who already has everything. Or for those people who always say "nothing" when asked what they want. Now you can finally grant their wishes!
Promising review: "Got a few of these for Christmas. A few people said they wanted nothing, so that's just what I got them, NOTHING. LOL. We did buy them real gifts, but they loved their nothing. Everyone who received one thought it was funny. I suggest getting this for anyone who asks for nothing. The reading part on the nothing is funny too, strongly suggest this!! Worth the laughs!!" —CatsMeow
Get it from Amazon for $11.99.
10. A tube of bacon-flavored toothpaste to leave on the counter for any unsuspecting passerby who brushes their teeth while still half asleep…I mean, they did say they wanted bacon for breakfast…
Promising review: "I LOVE this toothpaste as a gag gift for bacon enthusiasts, especially teens with a sense of humor! It smells...well, pretty gross (like bacon grease), has fun packaging, and is fascinating enough to try simply because...well, BACON. Lol. Not recommended for regular dental hygiene, though." —Christine Paluska
Get it from Amazon for $9.99.
11. A toilet timer to help them remember there is a whole world outside of the bathroom and they shouldn't be sitting on the commode until their legs are numb.
Promising review: "It was a great Father's Day gift! My 3-year-old loves playing with it. I'm not sure my husband actually uses it for its intended purpose because he still takes forever! :D" –katherine viens
Get it from Amazon for $14.99.
12. And some no rip toilet paper that'll leave them flustered and confused when they do finally decide bathroom time is over only to realize they are stuck there a little bit longer. Be warned, once you mess with someone in their most vulnerable state, you'll certainly be in the middle of an ongoing prank war.
13. And! A talking toilet paper holder so you can really scare the 💩 outta them (thankfully they're on the toilet so there won't be any mess). Record whatever message you'd like them to hear when they go to pull the paper.
Promising review: "This thing is awesome. I don’t know how something so simple can bring so much joy in my life. Just a tip if you’re going to get this don’t keep it on the toilet paper roll all the time. Just do it every once in a while. That way they don’t know it’s coming. The other great news is you can remind your children to wipe their butt all the way every single time they go to the bathroom." —Ecow
Get it from Amazon for $17.95.
14. A dinosaur eating gnomes figurine to show them how you really feel about their extensive gnome collection in their front yard.
Promising review: "I keep this on the sideboard in the dining room. I feel that’s the proper place for it considering. I get more compliments and chuckles and looks of pure merriment every time someone sees it. And it’s every time, regardless of whether they’ve seen it before. My favorite thing in the house." —Margaret W.
Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (clip the coupon on the product page to get 10% off this price; available in two versions).
15. A pair of Boot Bananas that'll help deodorize even their stinkiest pair of shoes using plant extracts, activated charcoal, and minerals. The best part is that as they absorb more ~funk~ they'll turn brown just like real bananas so they know when it's time for a new pair!
One set can last 6–12 months!
Promising review: "What's not to love about a banana that un-stinks your shoes?! Read about these online and decided to try them for myself and my wife. We mostly use them for our climbing shoes, and yes they do work. Leave them in overnight and your shoes will be MUCH less stinky, if not completely stink-free. I can even see leaving them in the closet overnight to air it out a bit. I love the fact too that when they are at the end of their life, they will turn brown just like a rotten banana. Genius!" —B-Jamz
Get a pair from Amazon for $20.
16. A set of two giant googly eyes to bring a personality to basically anything. Imagine the look on their faces if they walked to their car to see it had suddenly grown eyes 👀.
17. A bottle of "headlight fluid" that'll confuse all the car novices who barely even know how to fill their car up with gas. They're sure to experience a rollercoaster of emotions when they open this up — from being concerned that they've never replaced the fluid before to utter disbelief when they find out this isn't real.
Note: this is just an empty bottle, because no, headlights don't need fluid.
Promising review: "This will definitely make for some laughs at Christmas. It looks just like something you might buy at an auto parts store…until you think about what it really is. Ha ha ha." —teri
Get it from Amazon for $8.99.
18. A ridiculous yodelling pickle if you wanna give them the perfect ammo to irritate anyone and everyone in their life.
19. A boyfriend pillow for that person who is always begging someone to be their cuddle buddy.
20. Or a Dwight Schrute reversible sequin pillow that is seemingly normal until they swipe up to reveal a creepy Dwight that may or may not haunt their dreams.
Dunderdesign is a small business with The Office-inspired items any fan of the show will love. They even have this in a Prison Mike design.
Promising review: "I bought this for my best friend for Christmas who is a a huge Office fan. I got the pillow along with the pillow case which I recommend for a perfect fit. The pillowcase itself is so funny and the quality is great. The back side is super soft as well. When I wrapped it I made sure the black side was showing so he didn't know that Dwight's lovely face would be staring at him. 😂😂 I totally recommend!!!" —Ashlyn
Get it from Dunderdesign on Etsy for $20.20+ (available with or without insert and in two colors).
21. A toilet stool and putting practice set so they can use the ~extensive~ time they spend in the bathroom practicing their golf instead of just endlessly scrolling through their phone.
Promising review: "I bought this for a White Elephant Gift and it was a hit! The golf lovers in the group all wanted one." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $25.99.
22. A Bob Ross chia pet that kinda speaks for itself. Plant and art lovers will rejoice at this completely unique gift. Go get them a ch-ch-ch-chia!
23. A pair of Fish Flip-Flops so they can up their slides game to this sweet pair that looks like a fish is swallowing their whole feet. They do always say they're a trendsetter...
24. A tin of emergency underpants, which is perfect to have on hand while they open up all these hilarious gifts as a backup in case they do in fact pee themselves from laughing so hard.
Promising review: "Hey! If you're on the fence about getting this gag gift...GET IT!!! Today is my husband's birthday and he couldn't stop laughing when he opened this! Our kids kept referring to it as the 'man diaper' while laughing...BUT keep in mind that this gag gift is NOT geared only toward a man! This was worth every penny and my husband sent me a photo to make me laugh now! Apparently he carried it on him as he headed out the door LOL. He hasn't opened it...so I am unaware of how they would actually fit him. However, the purpose it was purchased for, did not let me down." —CB
Get it from Amazon for $6.93.
25. A mini violin so they can join Mr. Krabs' tiny orchestra that plays the perfect pity party soundtrack.
This comes with the mini violin, stand, bow, and case.
Promising review: "It looked exactly like my real violin! But a mini version. Such specific details for such a small instrument!!! It uses ACTUAL wood, little metal strings, and real pegs!!!!!!!! It has a little case that is a pretty velvet red and black color. The bow is real wood also, but the actual bow hair is plastic. If you replace the plastic bow hair with horse hair, and apply rosin, THE LITTLE VIOLIN CAN REALLY WORK!" —Michelle
Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in four sizes).
26. A super difficult clear jigsaw puzzle to stump even the biggest puzzle aficionados. This isn't just your typical, difficult clear puzzle — there are multiple pieces that have straight edges to mimic corners and side pieces but that's not actually where they belong. 😈
CM Originals Co is a small business based in Las Vegas Nevada that has ornaments, customizable Harley Davidson inserts, and more.
Promising review: "My mother in law has never taken this long to complete a much larger puzzle. She is tackling it row by row and piece by piece. We’ve been trying to challenge her puzzling skills for years. This did the trick!" —Tiffany Kelly
Get it from CM Originals Co on Etsy for $14.44+ (available in four piece quantities).

Get the box of four pairs from Amazon for $25.99 (available in three size ranges).
28. A removable cat toilet seat sticker to add a little ~surprise~ to their visit to the bathroom. Let's just hope it doesn't cause any accidents...
29. A prank box with a spider that'll jump out when they open it. You can either use on its own or filled with a gift card, candy, or other small treat. Let's just say it may take them a little while to ever trust a box you hand to them again.
Promising review: "We witnessed a good jump! My 14-year-old is not afraid of anything, well maybe except for the spiders. He got this box today as a Christmas gift. He opened it, totally freaked out, instantly jumped back, put his hand to the heart and started hyperventilating. After he pulled himself together, he said, 'You got me!!!' And believe me it is hard to 'get' him nowadays! We videotaped it. It was worth every dime!!!" —Elena
Get it from Amazon for $13.99 (available in three versions).
30. A fake power outlet sticker so they can stick it up on a wall in an airport, restaurant, or other public place. Then, sit back and watch unassuming patrons who desperately want to charge their phones try to plug in just to realize they've been tricked!
Reviewers say these are removable, but to be careful if you want to pull them off a wall as they are stickers and may cause damage.
Promising review: "I was able to trick my stepson into using one for his dresser so he can plug his Alexa into it. I told him you gotta make sure it goes on straight and wait for it to grow a box. Over the course of four days he came to me and said it's not growing. So I told him hmm maybe you have to water it like a plant. So sure enough he waters it (only a little bit). He did that for a week. Then I started to put more around the house and tricked my wife and friends who came over :D Great gag item." —Shawns211

Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
32. A pack of 10 tiny hands so they can shock friends and family by reaching out to grab stuff with these little ~unsettling~ hands.
Promising review: "We’re a silly family, so when my mom mentioned wanting these, I got them for her birthday. She had a bad day yesterday, so I gave them to her a few days early to cheer her up. Her face lit up as she threw her head back in genuine laughter. She immediately went to the garage to find a wooden stick to attach the hands to a each end. She uses it as a scepter, and orders the household about like peasants. When we complain, she holds the tiny hand up for silence. She uses it to pet our faces while we sleep. The cat has declared the Hand her arch nemesis. It's been 24 hour now and I regret everything." —Nesha
