      Might as well give a Reserve Bank voucher, if you want to be practical. No expiry date, accepted anywhere.

      Seriously, gift vouchers are the worst thing. I prefer cash with a note saying what they have to spend it on, so it goes to a treat, not just in the wallet. People usually honour it, or so they say.

        But the lowest prices are just the beginning

          Pity you cant the vouchers for a sausage.

        accepted anywhere.

        Not all of them. The older they are the less readily they are accepted so you might need to go to one of the licenced voucher exchange stores. I'm not sure whether they accept the discontinued metal ones though especially the ones issued before 1966.

    Inflation has caught up with KK. I recall it being $5-10 many years back. I’d love it if someone gifted me a disposable camera as I’d never buy one for myself.

    • I was thinking disposable cameras would cost >$50 but can get one for about $30- that's a decent KK idea!

      • Apparently Tamagotchis are making a comeback too, similar price range.

          Digimon or no deal

        • Ooh that certainly brings back fond childhood memories!

      • And then the developing fee…

    Donation, in my name, to The Human Fund.

      Happy Festivus!

    If it's White Elephant I buy something I want that appeals to hardly anyone with a view to winning it back. I also wrap extravagantly to get it into play as early as possible.

      Previous years, i've picked things I would want or kind of want if there was nothing else. I've won back Knipex pliers and a Leatherman Micra

    Giving a R36S Game Console for the family KK with a $50 budget -

    I've thrown an old SD card into it and loaded it with games including Half-Life, GTA 3.

    • Love this idea!

  • Cash or a gift card for groceries. I don't need other stuff.
