It's that time of year again! In the coming days and weeks, the calendar will be filled with holiday office parties and festive gatherings. And chances are, a white elephant gift exchange is in your future.

In my opinion, bringing a gift to a white elephant exchange that stirs up the excitement of stealing and swapping is even better than a new gift you can take home. So, I've put together a list of items that are sure to get the party going.

Whether you're shopping for a co-worker, close friend, or relative, I've carefully chosen gifts that work for everyone and that you can actually steal. Because gift swaps typically have price limits, I made sure that all of the items listed below were under $30.
