Worst Christmas Present Competition

[DTCwordfan]

Ok folks - I am just stirring it

Building on smow's thread on her "gorgeous" sweater, let's have a competition for worst present - photographs and descriptors welcome.........never know the Ed may get an AB poll going on the worst three? Ed - is that possible?

I can't enter as all I got was wine (some good half cases) and sweaters and a scarf that I like - from White Stuff.........

Go for it!

[rowanwitch]

ann summers doodle pad for girls the one where you doodle the bits on a bloke... from a friend.....

[yogasun]

Anti-wrinkle cream from my oldest friend - to be fair she has tried it herself and thinks there's a difference.
It was beautifully wrapped in a small box that looked as though it contained a ring (we both love jewellery).
BIG disappointment but OH and sons were hysterical.

A shoe horn off my Grandad! It is currently wedging the door open

A packet of cigars (small ones). I am of the female persuasion and I have never smoked in my life (except for when I was very young and had a try at it. As I almost choked I gave up and never tried again).

As a 40-year old, I was delighted to get not only a Spinning Top (From my Parents)...

My hubby once bought me for christmas, a pair of oven gloves, a shopping bag and a set of kitchen scales.
all i wanted at the time was perfume, any sort. i just love perfume, but he sad he thought i had enough already.

Id love to understand how men's minds work sometimes.

[DTCwordfan]

My gosh, we'll be setting up a swap shop next!

Keep them coming!

I posted this on another thread a few weeks ago:

An aunty of mine used to save nearly all presents received, and wrap them up and give them out the following year, or find things from around the house that she hasn't used. When I was ten years old, she gave me a toilet brush and holder that had sat nicely in her bathroom for a few years (yeah, we threw it away!) Tend to buy her cheap and cheerful pressies now, or nice cloths in my size, not hers, in the anticipation of getting them back next year!

pugthedog - i would have preferred a foot spa to this years offering from mr puzz - a facial sauna.

[DTCwordfan]

Mate of mine used to collect the bling jewellery (tie-clips/brooches that sort of thing) that 1st class on Air China doled out to their passengers - they were really nasty.

Those went as Xmas pressies to his relatives......

[tamborine]
