Prize for the tackiest sweater
We're hosting a tacky sweater party in December and I'd like to have guests vote on the ugliest male and female sweater.
I'm thinking of spending about $25 on each prize... what would you like to win? One thought was to have a gag gift (something you'd find at Spencer's), plus something good.
Ornaments? Alcohol? Gift cards? I'd love to think of something more original!

Re: Prize for the tackiest sweater
My instant thought was that a gift card might be cute if you did it to a clothing store (Gap, Old Navy, Macys) and put it in a card or attached to a note that said something about buying a real/non-tacky sweater so you "don't have to see the ugly one anymore."
You could do the giftcard for $15-20 and then attach a small gag gift as well. Maybe an sweater Christmas tree ornament, like this:
I found those here: http://www.garnethill.com/garnet-hill-knit-sweater-christmas-ornaments-set-of-4/11698?listIndex=1&cm_mmc=Shopping%20Comparison-_-GoogleBaseHome-_-HOME%20%3E%20HOME%20FURN%20%3E%20DEC%20ACCESSORIES%20%3E%20HOLIDAY%20ORNAMENTS-_-20686&SourceCode=H0W25B
Granted, they're $28, but for a set of four ($7/each). I'd keep two for myself and give the other two away. Or if you/someone you know can knit, you could always make them!
