1.Bath set
Daily necessities really don’t make good gifts. Gifts should bring a sense of surprise — unless there’s something special about them, receiving a bath set just doesn’t feel festive at all.

2.Christmas decorations
Christmas decorations are another risky choice. Not only might the recipient not normally decorate their space, but the gift’s usefulness is also very short-lived. It’s really not recommended as an exchange gift.

Perfume can be a wonderful gift, but everyone has different taste preferences, making it highly subjective. Using it as an exchange gift is too risky — chances are high it could backfire.
