Its that time of year and we are going to have an office christmas party next week. What are the best white elephant gifts that you have seen or given at a party?

I am planning on going out and getting a HUGE can of beans, some rubber gloves, wet wipes, and some TP....hahahaha terrible I know
 
Last year, one present was a thong, 1/2 a bottle of suntan lotion, and used sunglasses. Not sure if the thong was used or not.
 
Our office does this every year. In the past I have given the following.

- Nice coffe mugs with names like "Lance" and "Cliff" on them
- Jar of Hair Mayonaise.
- large bag of dried shrimp.
- Miniature "Hello Kitty" water cooler.
- Freddy Mercury Action Figure.
- "How to land a man and keep him" book.

I almost wet my pants on the how to keep a man book. Our office is all guys, so that would be even better yet.
 
I've been saving my hotel shampoo, lotion soap and etc for a year. The box will smell nice but the gift will be worthless. I'm gonna throw in the four bottles of crap wine that I got from other exchanges last year.
 
For a group of friends party I took a nice craftsman creeper that the host had gotten for Christmas and gave it to his neighbor.
 
The best one I've seen was the manual breast pump.

This year I'm thinking about doing a set of acoustic guitar strings that's missing the "G" string...
 
When cable internet came out down here, it was by @Home, who went belly up after a few years and sold out to AT&T (who then sold to Comcast, who later traded the market to Time Warner). The bankruptcy happened shortly before Christmas. So, that year, I knew a number of people at the party had @Home and were not happy with the way things were going (the service was never great anyway), so I packaged up an old 300 bps modem I had laying around, a beat up modem cable, and a 5.25" floppy disk into a plastic bag, and made a nice label for it entitled "@Home Internet Connection Kit". It got a lot of laughs from the @Home users...

Wine only gets better with age. Especially the stuff that stored in a garage during an Iowa summer.

Yeah but if you shake the bottle the pulp disappears for a while. The champagne however has an almost silt like substance in the bottom. Maybe I'll add in the six cans of tomato and pineaplle juice that have been in the bar fridge for an eternity.
