If you're reading this and still shopping for the best Dirty Santa gifts, then we'd bet good money that your exchange is imminent. Cutting it close, eh? Don't worry—we've got plenty of great gift ideas that should arrive in time for Christmas, if you order stat. Not quite sure what a Dirty Santa event is? Though your mind may drop straight it into the gutter, most of them essentially function more like White Elephant and Yankee Swaps; you bring wrapped presents to trade that are meant to be intentionally funny, (largely) impractical, and sometimes naughty.
Dirty Santa gifts are typically pretty cheap presents like stocking stuffer finds, definitely under $25 but usually closer to $15 or even $10, and the best gifts are the ones that’ll have everyone talking. From silly but useful toilet lights and emergency underwear to the more absurd bag of reindeer farts (yes, really) on this list, there are no shortage of quirky finds here that everyone will fight for—which is, after all, the goal of the game. To help you find unique gifts, we tapped our editors to recommend the presents that have left them LOL’ing. Make haste!
