What is the worst gift you have ever received?

This is meant to be lighthearted.

What is the worst gift you ever received from someone? Mine was definitely a book about bicarbonate of soda from my grandma for Xmas one year

Ex Mr BabyNo5 bought me one those horrific singing fish plaques and current Mr BabyNo5 bought me a book called “The law and unmarried couples” and a set of bathroom scales which actually calculates your % body fat and BMI 😂😂

Poundland perfume as a first Christmas present from my monster in law.
Should have known from then lol!

Synthetic brown and white pyjamas with horrible hard, sharp-edges buttons that made me look like a gingerbreadman.

From MIL. And she says she wants more grandchildren. Hah!

A packet of tea bags from my BF. My sister had just opened her present from her DH, a diamond eternity ring ...from Tiffanys no less. My brother kindly suggested it must be a joke and have another gift hidden inside.

This meant that everyone stopped what they were doing to watch me tip a packet of teabags all over the floor to reveal - just teabags! My BF couldn't understand why I was upset, "because you love tea". .

He did buy me some kitchen scales sometime later which I got but not surprisingly we are no longer together.

Tit and penis egg moulds to fry eggs in

A Christmas present from my ex who I was with for 4 years fro. Age 16-20.
A links of London bracelet with a few charms... I know, lovely and expensive gift.

When we split I felt that each of us had a thoughtful and expensive gift from the other (his being a signed an expensively framed, signed football top for his favourite team that he knew was authentic as I have a relative who trained the under 18's team at the time).

Cue a few years later and I had bought my mum a links of London bracelet on eBay from my dad. We took hers and mine into the store to have hers resized and some charms taken off and to have one of my charms put on the correct way so they all faced the same way.

The shop assistant had asked where we got them and when I told her how I got mine she got a bit awkward and informed me that my mum's was real but mine was fake.... she tried to make me feel better by saying some websites look authentic and he could have paid a lot for it -he took pride in telling me he got in that exact store and handpicked each charm for me.

Ended up giving my mum all the real charms for her bracelet

Many years ago, had a lot of family and friends round for Christmas Day, around 15 people. After lunch we had presents, when everyone had finished opening and admiring DP made a big announcement- he'd bought me a 'special present' something he knew I wanted and trotted off to get it from his hiding place. Everyone is intrigued, what can it be, lucky me! He returns, very pleased with himself..........and presents me with a fucking ironing board.

It wasn't a joke, he really thought he'd done a good thing and I guess that I had said we needed a new one. My mum tried to stick up for him saying she'd love an ironing board and it was a lovely present. He's still a bit crap at presents.

I should add that he was 3 years older and worked full time earning a pretty decent wage for a 21 year old

A facial Hair trimmer for ladies from ex partners mother. Basically a tiny shaver to sort my moustache out 😡 Kinda rude.

A friend of mine got given a fruit bowl type serving platter from her PIL.

Printed on the bottom was:

property of 'hotel name'

They had nicked it from the luxury hotel they added recently stated at. also....it was chipped.

My ex boyfriend bought me a set of golf clubs in his size for my birthday. We lived in Australia at the time and I was about to travel through the Far East. It was obviously a present for him as I couldn’t take them with me. He was very pissed off that I asked them to be shipped back to the uk with my other stuff when we split up. I paid for the shipment so he couldn’t say no . Yes I did it completely out of spite as I bloody hate golf!

First Christmas I spent with the in laws we did a table secret Santa for the grown ups. My SIL got me a reflexology wand (it was quite obvious who bought for who) that looked like a vibrating butt plug plus a nylon cheese wire thong with sexy written on it. She is supposedly religious so I’ve no idea what that was all about

My mum frequently buys me clothes in 16/18 even 18/20. I’m 10/12 and have been for years. She appears to have some form of body dysmorphia when it comes to me. She really does think I’m far bigger than I am . She makes me feel really ungrateful when I have to tell her they don’t fit

Oh MIL to DH a packet of coffee. It was the packet he had bought her in part of a gift pack from Hawaii when he was on a year off aged 21. He was 40 when she returned it beautifully wrapped, and rock solid!

A size 18 nightie in lime green with sheep on it. From my mum. I was a size 10.

That was the year she bought a shopping trolley size box of Neal’s Yard unguents for DB’s EX girlfriend

Just to rub yet more salt into the wound I even had to work Christmas Day night while they all got stuck into the Baileys. Bah sodding humbug.

My grandma used to knit gloves for us ! Giant banana hand sized ones made from unravelled jumpers .. also have had a pair of massive slippers with clown faces on .. and my ex once got me a dart board 😂😂😢

My sister once gave me a meat tenderiser for Christmas. She has form- for DM's 60th she gave her a potato ricer.

The free clarins beach bag you gey when you buy 2 or more products. from my sister as a xmas gift

a trainer bra and a pair of shoes off a distant aunt when i was 14

bra was a 32 b crop top,i was a 38DD/E and size 5 flip flops i was a mans 12

Approximately £2.43 in loose change from my DB. He'd just woken up, had forgotten it was my birthday, apologised, and then scrabbled around in the pocket of a pair of jeans on his floor.

My sister gave me a bag of bread mix to be used in a bread machine.

I don't own a bread machine.

When I went to exchange it, the cashier very politely told me that they hadn't sold that bread mix for three years and offered me 99p for it out of pity.

I took it.

My mum once received a ceramic duck from a close relative. If you remember MFI where they used to have ornaments to dress the furniture it was like that. It provided years of jokes and tears of laughter so I guess it served some purpose.

Not me but a friend was given a sex toy from her boyfriend of 5+ years as her only Christmas party. He left it under her tree so she could open it Christmas morning with all her family. They are actually still together but she buys her own gifts now

He proudly brought home for me the last 2 items left in the luxury box after everyone else had had their go - moustache removal cream and a very small packet containing two non applicator tampons. Apparently there was also a small miniature whisky but I was informed he drank it on the way home.

That is just so outrageously rude, as are so many of these.

A box of 3 creme eggs every year from my great aunt (bless her!). I can't stand the things 🤢 but my siblings were grateful 🙂

Anaphylaxis. MIL "forgot" I was allergic to hazelnuts and gave me hazelnut chocolates. I should have checked the label but as MIL knew, I stupidly thought she would have already checked. Christmas day in A&E
