My company does a gift exchange every year for $20, and I've gotten screwed the last two years. Dumb underwear and cheap vodka. It's pay back time!!!

Dumb underwear and cheap Vodka? I wouldn't do that though,,,this may be your year to get a great gift and then you would feel bad....
I have a couple of friends who exchange popcorn buckets every year....never understood that one!
If I had twenty dollars, I would go to a place like Bed, Bath and Beyond and look around,,,they have a lot of interesting things...I'll bet you find something..

Check to see if there is a Spencer's Gifts in your area? You would not believe all the stuff they have there.
Get them $20.00 of the new "FOREVER" postage stamps.
Find a magazine subscription for $19.99 for a year. Doesn't really matter what the magazine is about does it.
If you live in a hot or warm climate ... get some thick wool hunting socks or winter gloves via the Internet.
One month membership at a tanning salon
One month membership at a gym or spa
$20.00 Gift Certificate at Toys R Us or Baby's R Us
A box or two of "Depends" adult diapers
Good luck!

Two things I can remember very well from my dimwit of a brother :
1. After-shave balm and a shaving kit the year I grew a beard
2. A selection of novelty condoms about 2 months after I'd had the chop

A spittoon, a friend of mine bought this for a x-mas exchange gift, not knowing what it was. When I saw it, I couldn't stop laughing, literally for days! When I told him what it was he was embarrassed and bought lotto tickets instead. If I wouldn't have told him he would've probably given it out and would have been the laughing stock of the year! By the way a spittoon, is used to put on cans of soda, so that you can spit tobacco if you are chewing dip or tobacco itself. I still laugh when I think about it.

You could make a survival kit.
Duck tape to fix all the wrongs
Band-aids to heal the hurts
Rubber bands to help you bounce back
Safety pins to hold things together
I am sure you are starting to get the picture. Just be creative! Have fun and kick back and laugh!

A gift card to the Dollar Store.
A pack of tube socks.
A t-shirt that says, "We did gift exchange for $20 at work and I got this lousy T-shirt".

Buy gag lotto tickets. The kind that look authentic...but get them offline, so that whomever gets them would not have seen them at like CVS or something (bc they sell them there at xmas time).
That way, they scratch them and it is a winner. Then they get all excited until they read the fine print and find out its a gag!
