Are you in desperate need of last minute white elephant gift inspiration? We’ve
put together a seriously crazy list of gifts that only your co-workers would love or
hate. You pick!
But first, a little education.
The term “white elephant” refers to an extravagant but burdensome
gift which cannot be easily disposed of, supposedly after the King of
Siam gifted rare albino elephants to courtiers who had displeased
2. him, that they might be ruined by the animals’ upkeep costs.
These gifts may not be as extravagant as an elephant but nevertheless, they can
convey a similar message (or not). We’ve broken down the list into 3 categories:
All Things Bacon
Perfect For The Office
Pretend To Be Cool
Category #1: All Things Bacon
1. Bacon Lunch Box ($14.95): For the bacon lover who has everything. This
versatile lunch box also makes a great purse or container for bacon of course!
2. Maple Bacon Latte (Priceless $): Surprise your co-worker with this breakfast in
a mug: 1/2 tablespoon bacon fat (from the bacon you cook that morning), steam
together with 1 oz. Torani Maple syrup and milk, add espresso, top with leftover
bacon crumbs and VOILA – maple bacon latte perfection!
3. 3. Maple Bacon Bars- 3 Bar Set ($15): Even the product description makes you
salivate: Crisp bites of bacon drizzled with delicate maple sweetness and a
sprinkle of bonfire smoked sea salt, bathed in milk chocolate.
4. 4. Keep Calm and Love Bacon Mug ($29.95): This distinctive designer mug will
not only keep your beverage warm, it will help you to remember to #KeepCalm
with #ExtraBacon!
5. 5. Bacon
Bandages ($7.99): Cover your
injuries with your favorite cured
pork product! Bacon bandages
are ideal for people of all ages.
These die-cut sterile strips add
flair to your bumps and bruises.
6. Waxed Bacon Dental Floss
($5): Love the taste of bacon so
much you could “floss with it?”
Now you can! Effectively
removes plaque and leaves
your mouth bacon fresh! Beware co-workers!
7. Bacon Candy Canes ($5.96): A candy that tastes like
bacon and can hang just about anywhere for easy access.
You’ll have your co-workers lining up to visit your office.
Category #2: Perfect For The Office
1. The ‘Butt’ Office Supply Station ($14.95): When you need to keep yours in
the desk, get a butt station to keep you company! Functions as a pen holder, tape
dispenser and paper clip magnet. Perfect gag gift idea for the co-worker who is
sometimes one of these!
6. 2. Crumpled Paper Catapult Notepad Launcher ($11.99): Perfect for delivering
notes without walking, launching paper into sleeping co-workers mouths, or just
annoying everyone within a small radius of you. The crumpled paper catapult will
be the most useful tool in your office until someone comes over to your desk and
tears it apart in a fit of rage.
7. 3. Stress Buster Desktop Punching Ball ($17.99) Great stress relief for the
home or office. Heavy duty spring bounces back for more punishment. Durable to
withstand any amount of executive venting!
8. 4. Blah Blah Blah! Button
($9.08): The Blah! Button
recites 12 different vocal
variations of the phrase
“Blah, Blah, Blah!” Perfect
for use when the need arises
to put non-stop talking co-
workers, “know it alls” and
pathological liars in their
place.
9. 5. Air-Raid Warning Hand Crank Siren ($82.95): Similar to the sirens used in
WWII to warn people of air-raids, this hand crank siren gives an eerie sound when
cranked and will surely get anyone’s attention in the office. Perfect for
annoying your co-workers!
10. Category #3:
Pretend To Be Cool
1. Pizza Box
Cardboard
Stool ($32): Perfect for
the startup office or
pizza-obsessed co-
worker. When there’s
nowhere to sit down –
you improvise. This
stool actually looks
pretty comfy and if you
believe the fine print, it
can actually hold up to
440 pounds.
11. 2. Dry Erase Board Light Switches ($12): The best place for a whiteboard is not
where you might expect. The dry erase board light switch might just kill the post-it-
note and make your co-workers envious with your creativity.
3. Get Sh*t Done Mug ($16): Start your day off right by setting the tone with the
“Get Sh*t Done” coffee mug. Boom! Your co-workers will be impressed with your
attitude!
12. 4. Desktop Aquarium ($24.55): Anyone can put a pencil holder on a desk – why
settle for that when you can have something infinitely cooler, like this USB-
powered desktop aquarium. Did you know that quietly watching fish swim eases
stress, and may offer a means of treating high blood pressure? Hum, how SMART
and relaxing is that?
13. As you can see from
this crazy white
elephant gift list, the
variety and creativity
of gifts you can give to
your co-workers is
virtually limitless.
What awesome white
elephant gifts have
you given or received
over the years?
