My cousins have all decided that this year, instead of picking names from a hat, we're just going to do a grab-bag with a $20 gift. "Cleverness and Humor is always appreciated"

So what should I do? I was thinking a bottle of booze. 4 females, 1 who is 16, the other 3 25-27. 9 males ages 20 to 37, 6 of them between 22 and 27.

What would you guys get?

Booze is smart, except for the underage kiddos. For some reason a copy of 50 shades of gray came to mind.

Once I asked my SILaw for a case of oil. They were pissed. Didn't I want a nice dress shirt?

No.

A 36 pack of condoms.
Stuff 'em into a nice box (or put' em in a can.)

We do that with my wife's cousins, mostly girls. Those woven heavy knit slippers that are calf high and have a soft leather pad seems to go very well.

It's $28 on amazon so a little over but I bet it'll be ok. I'm getting one as a gag gift for my gf's brother

I say a bottle of Doctor Migillicuddy's peppermint schnapps and a box of condoms wrapped in some sort of Danish cookie tin.

Is this a shameless plug for the GRM and CM $10 per year magazine subscription? Sheesh.

If these are people you do not particularly like, there is always the Sugar Free Gummy Bears.
Read the reviews

I picked up a gift set of hot sauces for my boss at WalMart for $15. Had 8 different sauces and came in a corny looking suitcase type box.He thought it was a great gift when I showed it to him.

as a practical joke, Haribo Sugar Free Gummy Bears. Just read the Amazon reviews if you're not familiar.

As something more fun, spend an extra $5 on a Cards Against Humanity deck.

If you go on eBay, you could find Swiss Army knives for $20 all day long. Perfect gift for the dudes.
