Five Inexpensive Christmas Gag Gifts

The holiday season is a jovial one. To make it even merrier, why not give a gag gift or two? The following are five hysterical and oh-so innocent gag gifts suitable for any age or setting. Check 'em out!

Number 1: Five Golden Rings

How could anyone forget "The Twelve Days of Christmas," song? That's what I thought. Because everyone knows the song, this one is especially fun. First, buy a can of sliced pineapple rings. On a piece of notepaper, write the following:

"On the fifth day of Christmas, your true love gave to you: Five golden rings!"

You can leave it at that, or add a simple sarcastic note that goes a little something like this, "Well, I'm pretty broke at the moment so I couldn't get you five real golden rings. Hopefully these golden pineapple rings will suffice."

Number 2: Snowman poop

This gift is extra perfect for the frisky ones with a good sense of humor and plays up the idea of Santa's naught/nice list. Here's what you need to do.

On a note or card, write the following (as taken from thefunplace.org):

Santa's looked at his list,

He's even checked it twice,

After looking, he found out,

That you have not been nice.

Since coal is so expensive,

Here's the dirty scoop,

Santa's filling up your stocking,

With a bunch of snowman poop.

Attach the note to a little stocking filled with mini marshmallows. You can add a kitty litter scoop (attached with ribbon) for an extra kick of fun!

Number 3: Batteries Included

Isn't it annoying when you buy something, or receive a gift, and the batteries are not included? Well, here's an idea: Try doing just the opposite! Purchase some batteries and wrap them up nicely with a little note that reads, "Here are your batteries, gift not included."

Number 4: Tasty hamburger!

I once heard about a gag someone played on a family member and the reaction was priceless! Here's what you need to do. A few days before Christmas, go to a fast food chain and purchase a food item (like a hamburger, for example!). Wrap up said food item in a pretty box, tie it with a bow and place it under the tree. The recipient of this one won't be able to do anything but laugh!

Number 5: Where are the cookies?

This is an easy one. All you have to do is wrap up an empty plate and include a note that says something like, "Sorry - I ate all the cookies before I got to wrapping them." You can even include an empty glass and mention how you drank all the milk, too!

Good luck and happy holidays!
