I’ve been to many white elephant parties through the years and these are some of the most classy, nice, and useful white elephant gifts I’ve actually seen people fight over again and again.
Because as you may know, some White Elephant parties can be funny or silly and you’d need to bring a hilarious white elephant gift. But if you’re wanting ideas for classy or tasteful white elephant gifts, this is the list for you!
Let’s be honest for a minute.
No one wants to be that person who when someone opens up your gift that gives that happy little “oh neat!” face. Then they place the item clearly on their lap making sure everyone can see it so that hopefully one person will trade with them.
These are the gifts no one wants to go home with. Gifts that they feel “stuck” with.
No. We all want that amazing gift that everyone ooh’s and ahhh’s over. That everyone’s eyes get all big for.
That gift that everyone fights for.
So, here is that list.
These are just so classy and tasteful that I would actually fight over them too.
30 CLASSY, NICE & USEFUL WHITE ELEPHANT GIFTS
1.) 4-PACK WATERPROOF PHONE POUCHES (buy on Amazon ) If you love your phone and adventures, you will really get a lot of use out of this useful white elephant gift!
2.) LED TACTICAL FLASHLIGHT (buy on Amazon here) This just screams cool. From the case to the super great light distance, this one is a keeper
3.) MOKO FIREPROOF DOCUMENT BAG (buy on Amazon | Walmart) This one is useful for anyone! I’d love to toss some valuables into something like this for peace of mind. Protect your valuables, documents, money, and jewelry. Has a zipper closure for maximum protection.
4.) ELECTRIC SMORES MAKER (buy on Amazon | Walmart) I adore Smores almost more than life itself. And to not have a build a fire? I’m in love.

6.) NEW PILLOWS (buy on Amazon | Walmart) or look at local stores for deals). Nothing beats a good pillow. Not only do you show up with the biggest present, everyone will fight for this one!

8.) DEAD SEA MUD MASK (buy on Amazon here | Walmart). I love this mask. It is rich in minerals and creates a gentle exfoliation effect that removes excess oil, toxins, and dead skin cells so my face is so soft and glowy!
9.) 4-PACK RING STANDS FOR PHONES (buy on Amazon | Walmart) Everyone loves these little ring stands and they come with hooks so you can put them in your dashboard too. Fun!
10.) EARBUD HOLDER (buy on Amazon | Home Depot | Walmart) A fun and unique little device to store your earbuds. Take them along in your pocket without worrying about them getting all tangled up.

12.) BATH BOMB GIFT SET (buy on Amazon here) I’m a fan of bath bombs. These look a lot like Lush bath bombs, and the reviews are great. I’d fight for this many bath bombs for sure, there are 12!
13.) AIRZOOKA (buy on Amazon | Walmart) Do you want to “blow” your friends away? Or just want to call down the stairs loudly to your kids? Yeah. This is perfection. Everyone fought over this one at last year’s party.

17.) AIRPLANE FOOT HAMMOCK (buy on Amazon | Walmart) This one is so unique and cool, I want it! I want it!
18.) AMAZON GIFT CARDS – Everyone always loves gift cards. Consider wrapping the gift card up in multiple boxes so that it looks huge and the person has to open a bunch of boxes to get it.

20.) QUESADILLA MAKER (buy on Target | Home Depot) I’ve seen people fight over this quesadilla maker. It’s a popular one for sure.

22.) COLOR CHANGING UMBRELLA (buy on Amazon | Walmart As the rain falls on the printed white droplets, they change different colors of the rainbow. Can you say awesome!
