Finding the right Secret Santa gift is never easy. There’s a lot of pressure to get just the right thing. But often these exchanges take place among acquaintances, not great friends. And as such, they often come with a pretty strict price cap that limits your ability to get something truly pretty or practical. 

So why not go the funny route? It’s an easy out, but one that’s never frowned upon, since something like a Santa Claus face mask, complete with a beard, or a pair of socks with your face plastered on them are bound to get the whole party riled up.

If you roll up your sleeves and think hard on it, it’s wholly possible to find something funny that serves some sort of purpose, too. Think: vintage-inspired fruit coasters, 90s slap bracelets, or even a cup holder attachment that turns the spot into a throne for French fries. 

And for all your procrastinators out there, don’t worry—you can have all of the above (and more). When you use your Prime Student membership to buy something hilarious, you’ll get fast and free shipping, so you won’t have to show up to the holiday event empty-handed.
