Bad taste secret Santa gift

Instead of lots of family gifts this year we are doing a secret Santa with a £10 budget but the theme is bad taste. I don't know who I've got yet but don't want it to be rude just tacky/bad taste. Any ideas? Has anyone done this before?

The Neighbours Wedding Collection on DVD.

Preferably the 80s one.

Cheetah print toilet seat cover set. (Personal hatred of mine, cheers print. No idea why)

Fur trimmed rubber gloves.

I saw emoji poo cushions in asda recently.

One of those toilet roll covers shaped like a woman, where the loo roll is hidden under her skirt. Naff as hell. My nan has one in her downstairs loo.

PsychoPumpkin · 16/09/2017 21:02

Include the loo roll, obviously Wink

Ugly charity shop jumper?

Mind you, SIL howled with laughter to receive hers (it was fucking hideous) and said she'd wear it often, as a homage to bad taste. Sometimes it's so bad it's glorious.

Is that godawful M&S pink dress in the chazzers yet?

Why waste £10 on tat just to be chucked out and most likely go to landfill?
Sorry to be a grump!

Because we are becoming a much larger family, present spending was getting ridiculous with everyone buying for everyone but we still want to give a token gift when we celebrate together (which is also fake Christmas as we can't all be together on 25/12) but don't want the token gift set/bottle of wine which will be regifted and we all like a laugh!

First thing I thought was Bad taste bears... but that depends on what kind of thing you can gift to your family, and how open minded they are, I guess... GrinBlush

Men's genital deodorant!

Go to one of the fb selling tat threads here and behold the wonders to choose from Grin

This really is a waste of money, a nice drink would be more fun!

But if it helps, I saw a "fart button" reduced to clear in Wilko yesterday for a v small sum. Makes four different noises. HTH.

OK so make something? Paint a picture, make jam/toffee/tablet. Knit a jumper or scarf. Honestly "because we want a token gift and fancy a larf" is pretty ridiculous since it will last for 2 mins then be put aside then finally chucked away.
So wasteful

I'm not asking for permission, I was asking for ideas for gifts in line with a specific theme and thank you to those who have joined in, others feel free to scroll past.

I do agree, Whisky, which is why DB and I do Charity Shop Challenge: you buy the ugliest thing possible, then after Christmas you donate it back if you don't want to keep it.

But tablet is an excellent gift. I also recommend Christmas pudding fudge if you want to be a bit festive.

Whisky2014 · 17/09/2017 16:19

It's not about permission. It's about trying to get you to rethink this and putting your money and time towards more useful/nice things.
Even MrsHathaways suggestion is better than your current plan.

GreenTulips · 17/09/2017 16:46

We do similar at work with a theme

So something red
Next year charity gift
One year was 'Christmas outfit' they had to wear to the party
Something sweet

Loads of great ideas
