Technically, the goal of a white elephant gift exchange is to walk away with the best present. Those expectations put some pressure to give a great gift too. No one wants to buy the present that gets passed over during a gift exchange, but what do you get when you don't even know who you're shopping for? Casting such a wide net can make it more difficult to narrow down your gift shopping.
If you've been racking your brain to think of the perfect gift and you're running out of time, don't worry because Amazon has a landing page full of great white elephant suggestions. Here are some E! Shopping Editor-approved picks from the list.

What is a white elephant gift exchange?
For a white elephant gift exchange, people bring wrapped gifts, usually at a set price limit. Then, they draw numbers and pick the gifts out one by one with the option to steal the previously opened gifts. You won't know what's in each gift until it's unwrapped. The last person to go at a white elephant gift exchange gets to choose their favorite gift, even if someone else previously claimed it.
