Conquering The Yankee Swap

Yankee Swaps are similar to Secret Santa gift exchanges, but party participants have the opportunity to select a gift at random, or "steal" someone else's gift. You'll know just how fabulous your gift is by how many times it gets stolen. Try to choose an item that is unisex, since you never know who will end up selecting your gift at random. The key to making a big splash is to choose an unusual gift that will really resonate with the crowd.

Planning Your Own Gift Exchange

Secret Santa-style gift exchanges are a great way to celebrate the season at home or the office, without breaking the bank. With everyone gifting just one single Christmas gift to a chosen recipient, the whole gang will save a lot of green. Consider setting a moderate limit on the amount that should be spent on a gift � this is typically between $20 and $50, depending on your group's situation. To cut costs even more, you can also ask everyone to bring one dish or snack instead of having the gathering catered. Then just throw on a playlist of Christmas-time hits, switch on the Christmas lights, and let the good times roll.
