Dirty Santa on $10 budget. HELP!!

My family (dad's side) decided to do dirty santa this year. We usually just buy for the kids but whatever. We are still doing kids but they want to do this too with the adults.

The limit is $10. I have no idea what to get that's not obviously cheap re: dollar store or obviously lame re: gift card. 

 

Suggestions welcome!

  • Define "dirty"

    Is someone going to be pulling a dildo and butt plug out of a bag or do just mean "adult funny" like funny hot sauce and snuggies?

  • Depends who it's going to...cheap bottle of wine, body lotion sampler, candles, fancy cake/pancake/muffin mix, tea sampler, a box of chocolate, a cheap movie and popcorn, coloring books and crayons, etc.

    Edit: Oops! I missed the "dirty" part.

  • I'm thinking "dirty santa" as in when you steal gifts from one another. Not "dirty" as in sexy.

    My 70+ year old grandparents will be there. They have a sense of humor but I'm not sure if she will like opening up sex toys. Oh and my aunt is married to a pastor.

  • Oh, I've never heard "dirty Santa" roun' this parts them call that there a "white elephant"

    How about soaps from bath and body works, candle, a oldie but goodie movie [like 5 bucks] and some popcorn/candy snacks?

    Last year we did a themed adult exchange, the letter C was the theme [so anything starting with that letter] mil brought a casserole dish, I "fought" [thumb war] for it.
  • A board game like Apples to Apples or Would You Rather.
    A nice travel mug with some hot chocolate packets in it.
    Gourmet candy or nuts

  • Our supper club did a white elephant awhile back and some cocktail napkins were purchased that said, "don't drink and regift."

    Those dang napkins have been passed through to everyone at least once since.

    If you want to keep it serious...do a couple of movie ticket gift cards and tie it on a cute bag of popcorn or king size candy bar. 

    ETA-they call it dirty santa here as well but, I had never heard of it prior to moving to the deep, deep south.

  • Does it have to be gender-neutral?  Ulta was running a promo where you could buy 5 of an assortment of items to stick in a small Christmas-themed basket for $10.

  • I'm doing the same thing with a $10 budget for my Bunco group.  I got The Notebook on Amazon for $3.99 shipped.  I plan to get a bowl and bag of microwaveable popcorn to go with it for less than $10.
