Growing up, we never had the "Elf on the Shelf" scout for Santa. Maybe it was the neighborhood. Any stand-up Elf would know better than to rat any of us out to Santa, lest he is dealt with in a very unChristmas like way.

But I do know that there are a lot of elves on shelves throughout New Jersey and as a public service I asked "Where's the best place to place the "Elf on the Shelf"

Here are some of the ideas from my social media:

April Fierro Suk

They just hang around on my crazy 70s light fixture

Denise DeHaut Brown

In the garbage. Ooops did I say that??

Jei White

The toilet

Chuck Homler

Wood chipper

Lynn Ann Murray

Never had an Elf on Shelf. That became popular after my son was older

Tina Mazzilli

Fridge, hanging from chandelier, in the shower....in the pantry trying to get into cereal...i put that damn thing everywhere...

Beth Coffey Fite

Ceiling fan, sticking out of the hamper wearing a garment, partially hidden in a bowl of M&Ms.

John Crowley

I have a NY Giants elf on a shelf put on my Christmas give him the name of injured player and he stays there all season
