Aisles of random tat that appear in shops at Christmas....

[Sparklingbrook]

AIBU to be a bit sad about it? BHS usually excel in it, I noticed today Asda had an aisle of it.

It's all so, well, crap.

I wouldn't buy any of it for anyone-it looks like you went down the random Christmas tat aisle and bought the first thing you saw. Who buys it?

Sorry about mentioning the C word-but it's out there.

My mum bought all her teenage grandsons rude boxers from Primark one year.

Could be worse... DH's ex gave their son (20 at the time) a willy care kit for Xmas last year.

(Sorry I'm not going to link to it as it'd really mess up my amazon recommendations )

MarmaladeBatkins The one criteria that everyone should adhere to when choosing a present is this; can you only buy this item at christmas? If yes, step away, because things that you can only buy at christmas are shite.

That is a 100% perfect rule.

I think you are all bah humbug scrooges I love all manner of Christmas tat. I totally adore the whole tackiness of it, just for Christmas mind you, not at any other time. It drives OH mad. I can't recall who said it earlier up thread about mini things being bad but I also love all things mini. One of the things I love about Christmas most is small food (party food).

Tis the season to eat small food fa la la la la la la la laaaaaaaaaaaaa

So there

I hope someone gets you the 'Chilli Shoe' Edna.

Sparkling They probably will now and I will come back on here and complain because Christmas has passed (It will probably serve me right for calling a whole thread of people Bah humbug scrooges!)

Thanks to this thread my google ads are insane!

Never click on a link, never click on a link.........

Will I ever learn?

What are they selling you Bogey? What have you bought?

I havent bought anything but I am now being persued by BHS and M&S with all manner of tat, including Marmite stuff in the wrong colours :o

Just to revive this thread Sparklingbrook, I received a Handpicked Collection catalogue today that is plainly the middle class version of Christmas tat. Fuck knows why I have been signed up for this, I don't remember shopping at Pedlars, but anyway it is here and as I saw I could be spending £14.95 on a pair of Liberty print shoelaces I thought of you

Look - look what I found in Boots.

This is the ultimate gift set.
What says Christmas better than the micro pedi gift set

A gift and an insult all in one - merry Christmas you fucking hobbit. Ho ho ho.

Ooh I need to look at that Bitches.

Merry Christmas!! Now sort your trotters out! Pag

Next year SIL is soooo getting something from BHS for Christmas....mwahahaha!

I need to look at Handpicked I think.

I have been to Wilko today. They have owl and fox Christmas cards.

I know this was a zombie thread, but xmas tat is a bugbear of mine. I wish some of these links still worked!

What's the best tat around this year?
