White elephant gift (http://www.helium.com/items/1245814-white-elephant-gift-exchanges) exchanges are becoming more popular throughout the United States. With the current economic downturn, a white elephant gift exchange might just be the solution to this year's gift giving problems.
The hardest part of arranging a white elephant gift exchange is getting everyone to agree to participate in it and setting a price limit. With this type of gift exchange a price limit is $15 Maximum can still provide a nice simple gift without breaking your bank account (http://www.helium.com/items/1245814-white-elephant-gift-exchanges).

Like everything there must be rules, such as;
Nice gifts (http://www.helium.com/items/1245814-white-elephant-gift-exchanges) versus gag gifts
Gender specific gifts or simply a gift anyone would want or use.
Will people simply take turns picking a gift or will everyone draw a number and then go in numeric order.
Is stealing allowed? One way to add a fun twist to a simple grab bag is after a person has chosen a gift, they must open it up for display, and then the next person has the opportunity to "steal" that gift or choose a new one from the pile. "Steals" are usually limited to three times for a single gift.
