What's the weirdest Christmas present you've received?

My sister has spent weeks telling me about the great clothing she had brought me for Christmas. We went out to dinner last week to celebrate Christmas because she's going back to Oz for Christmas itself so won't see me. She gave me the bag of clothes for the big clothes reveal. They were all size 18-24. I'm a size 8-10. They were obviously clothes that she, a shopaholic, had brought for herself and hadn't fitted. Which is strange in itself but she had spent literally weeks building up how great this present was going to be. Starting to believe she might have body dysmorphia and views herself as smaller than she is, only thing that could explain it.

Maybe the one I'm due to get this year, ugg earmuffs with Bluetooth? I have anxiety, and I need to be able to hear what's happening clearly around me to feel safe.

The year my nan gave me pot purri, and drawer scent packets. I'd love them now, but at 9 I wasn't impressed.

Oh or the year my DH gave me fashion cards.

DH once got an "armani" wallet from my parents, straight from Bobby. Oh it was so bad. I wish I could find the picture we took of it. I'm sure my mum bought it as a PA gift but it have us proper belly laughs.

@knittedjest  thinking of your expression whilst receiving the bag full of clothes. Maybe she mistook the 18 for an 8 
@Letsmoveondude Drawer scents for a 9 year old! What are fashion cards?
