Meeting up with your friends between Christmas and New Year's? Go the fun'n'festive route with a white elephant gift exchange!

P.S. Never heard of white elephant? Here's how you do it:  

1. Everyone brings an inexpensive, wrapped gift to the party. 

2. Each participant draws a number out of a hat. That's the present order.
