Hi,
Merry Christmas!
My relatives normally ask me what they can get for my DD.
Except my In-Laws never do - they arrive with two large sack fulls, and I have no clue each year what they are buying.
I'm grateful for the presents for my DD, plus it means that I always get her less, as I know they'll make up for it!
The issue I have is with duplicate gifts - there are always a few!
Do I:
a - say nothing (and hope my dd says nothing!
b - Tell them to keep it at their house
c - Tell them to take it back for a refund
d - keep it in my 'spare' pile for birthday parties etc!
I have mentioned this issue to them before, but have been told it's their prerogative as grandparents to buy what they like, so I'm not going to be able to stop the surprise present situation.
Any advice appreciated!
