In honor of our CCFL Christmas party and the Annual White Elephant gift exchange, this week’s Word on the Street question was:
What is the best White Elephant gift you’ve received?
A “made for a small human” UGLY pair of underwear! Unused, thank goodness! HAHA! –Angela Gebhardt
A Chia pet. –Matt Carlson
A beautiful large platter that matched my kitchen. –Shelly Johnson
So this is an easy one for me although it really ended up not being a white elephant gift. Last year during our family “White Elephant” gift exchange it was worked out so that I got the last number. This never happens so I was excited for this. As the gifts were being opened my cousin opened a gift that ended up being a Chicago Bears golf towel. Now I don’t really golf that much but the Bears piece really sparked my interest and I am not one to say no to any type of Chicago Bears memorabilia mainly because I love my Bears!!! I decided to take this towel and as I opened the towel I read a little note in it which read, “Cody we knew you couldn’t turn down a Bears item. Lucky for you this Bears item comes with tickets to next year’s home game. Any game you choose!” So needless to say my family worked it out so that I was able to go and watch my beloved Bears play just a couple of months ago. I have not been able to go watch the Bears play in person because of life, work, and money. This was one of the most special presents I have ever received let alone white elephant gift!! –Cody Struss
