What's the worst yankee swap gift? Share your stories.

Tell Us HAVE YOU EVER BEEN STUCK WITH A GIFT YOU DIDN'T LIKE? As the holiday approaches, family and friends are gearing up for another round of Yankee Swap fun. Or is it? The Yankee

Swap is a holiday game in which each person at the party brings an inexpensive gift (typically worth $25) and then picks a number from a hat filled with the number of participants in the

game. The person who picked No. 1 chooses the first gift, unwraps it, and shows it to the crowd. Next, the person who picked No. 2 chooses a gift and then must decide whether to keep it or

swap it with a previous gift opened and so on. After the last person has gone, the game returns back to the person holding the No. 1 who may do a final swap for any gift in the game.

Advertisement: Whether the gifts are silly or serious is generally up to the buyer, so one never knows what will be unwrapped and the goodies can range from a blanket to a doll to jumper

cables to liquor. Have you ever participated in a Yankee Swap? If so, what is the worst gift you have ever received or watched someone receive? Share your thoughts by filling out the form
