We used to do this every Christmas. One year the best gift was a pink flamingo mailbox. The bank president got that one. Another year it was a monkey lamp. It looked like something out of Wizard of Oz with the monkey holding up the two lampshades. That one has a place of honor in my family room. grin

For this year's bank white elephant exchange I am planning on regifting a wedding present that I received that I know was regifted to me. It is ant shaped corn-on-the-cob holders and I think I am going to include a couple of cans of corn.

That's the kind of junk I get from my in-laws (cocoa set, anyone?), and I save them for regifting. Mostly in white elephant exchanges. wink grin

Usually ends up with an ice scraper brush (but not the one in the other thread).

I just remembered a gift I received at one of those exchanges. It was a cover for a kleenex box - it was crocheted and had pink flowers on it. Looked like it came from Tijuana, or maybe someone's grandma made it. (or both!) laugh

I actually received a white elephant as a wedding gift. It is awful, it is an elephant fighting a tiger and some other animal. I keep meaning to pull it out for a white elephant gift exchange, but like stated earlier, out of sight out of mind. It is so buried in our storage I might not see it again until we move.
