Need Suggestions (Dirty Santa related)

My mom's extended family is getting together Saturday for Christmas.  We are playing dirty santa and the limit is 10 bucks.  It can be a nice gift or gag gift, one has to be a girl and one has to be a boy gift.  I am blanking and don't have the energy to go fighting major crowds searching and I'll have to bring Aubrey along.  I would like to figure out something, run in and get it, and get out.  Do any of ya'll have any suggestions?

    Gift cards are always great.  Is it supposed to be "dirty"?  Brad got a snuggie (you prob saw the pic on FB) and if you go to Kmart, they are $10.  So you're supposed to spend $10 on a girl gift and another on a boy gift or $10 altogether?

    $10 per person...so $20 (me and Wes each have to have one). 

    Lol I would get a Snuggie but I am afraid my mom would get it, and that is what I got her for Christmas since she has been talking about the thing for months now!

    I brought a Snuggie to our work swap today. I went with leopard print just for fun.

    well you could always get a different pattern.

    Gift cards go well at our office swaps. 

    You could get a movie on DVD - they usually have ones for like $9.99 at Target all the time.

    You could also do a theme basket/bowl - like a popcorn bowl w/a cheap movie, candy and a bag of microwave popcorn......

    or try somewhere like big lots or pier1 as they will have Christmas themed glasses/china or fun packaged gifts (my old mngr got me a hot cocoa one)

    For a girl gift you could go to Old Navy and get those fleece gloves and scarf. I think they are under $5 a piece.

    I have gotten those insense things from there also for dirty santa gifts.

     Boy gifts are harder. Maybe a flashlight?? or sometimes at Sears they have $10 screwdriver sets.

     I think these are all great ideas.  Gift cards and movies always go over really well!

    You could also gift a month of Netflix.  I think it's $8 or $10...that might be good for the male gift!
