Every Christmas eve, my family gathers at my grandma's house to celebrate my favorite day of the year. We enjoy great Italian food, many laughs and, most importantly, the annual grab bag game. Each person brings a gift, costing around $20, and we pick numbers to decide the order of who chooses first. Some people take the grab bag seriously, and buy gifts they actually think others will use. And some, like my Uncle Tony, choose items like an Obama chia pet. Over the last couple of years, I have gotten a pretty good idea of the crowd favorites -- not to mention fighting over items everyone wants to steal. If you're in need of grab gift ideas for adults, bring any one of these eight gifts to this year's Christmas and your success is almost guaranteed.
