How to Find Novelty Gifts

Creative novelty gifts come in many different forms.

Looking for plastic poop for your nephew's stocking stuffer? Can't seem to find a place to buy fake lottery tickets for April Fool's Day? If you're looking for either of these things, then most likely you're in the market for a novelty gift. Novelty gifts can be anything that is not a typical household good. Examples of novelty gifts vary from toys or collectibles to decorations to funny gag gifts such as whoopee cushions or plastic dog poop. Many people give novelty gift baskets for special occasions or novelty gag gifts for a humorous gift. Many online vendors and brick-and-mortar stores specialize in various novelty gifts.

Instructions

1. Attend garage or lawn sales. Many people sell rare, funny or one-of-a-kind novelty gifts. You may be able to find a creative novelty gift at a great price. Garage sales are also a great way to find novelty gifts that are no longer being manufactured or that you may not find in your typical store. It is easy to find garage sales in your area by looking in your local newspaper or by searching the "for sale" section of your local craigslist.org website.

2. Find novelty gifts online. There are many different websites, such as incrediblegifts.com and perpetualkid.com, that specialize in the sale of new novelty and gag gifts. Perpetualkid.com sells everything from squirrel underpants to plastic bacon. Another great novelty gift website to visit is taylorgifts.com. At taylorgifts.com you can get novelty shirts and hats as well as jewelry and toys. If you're not sure what type of novelty gift you'd like to purchase, visiting websites might be a great way to help you narrow down your search. Online auction sites such as ebay.com also tend to sell many novelty gifts.

3. Find novelty gifts at stores near you. Thrift stores and specialty boutiques are great places to find novelty gifts. Visit them to see if they have the type of novelty gift that you are looking for.

4. Make your own novelty gift. If you can't find something that meets your expectations, then make it yourself. Feel free to get creative and make whatever you find novel.
