Each year our family does a Secret Santa: you pick a name out of a hat and then spend up to £75 on that person. Saves a LOT of admin and means the recipient gets one gift they really want.
This year I got a bath towel. It's lovely but who are the people who regularly spend £70 on a bath towel? I'm not complaining much as it will be a lovely poncey touch for the guest bedroom. It feels much like the supermarket ones we get and is cotton, not unicorn pelt. Surely a towel is a towel is a towel or do we actually live in a world where people do not sniff at the idea of paying £70 for a £5 towel?
What don't you "get"?
