If your friend group or family (or both!) like to spice up gift-giving during the holidays, you might be on the hunt for white elephant gifts. We’ll always be the first to tell you that you should head straight to Amazon. You’ll find endless options—from practical ideas to straight-up silly ones—along with faster shipping options in case you procrastinated big time and need a quick fix.

In our eyes, there are three main white elephant gift categories: useful, coveted, and funny. You could go the practical route by wrapping up a streaming stick or smartwatch that’ll serve them a purpose for years to come. Alternatively, maybe you want to get a present that comes from a popular brand or went viral on TikTok. JBL headphones and the Revlon One-Step Hair Dryer and Volumizer are prime examples of this group. And last but not least, gifts that’ll garner cheeky smiles and belly laughs. The Bob Ross Chia Pet, giant baguette pillow, and anything with a pop culture reference are sure to put everyone in a good mood.

Regardless of your approach to picking the perfect white elephant gift, we know this game usually follows a budget, which is why we divided this list into different price points. Whether your group’s budget is $10, $25, or $50, we’ve got you covered. So keep reading for the best Amazon white elephant gifts you can bring to the party.
