Don't know if IBU but I'm pretty miffed at having received this.
A friend visited the other day for a playdate with our children. When they arrived, she handed me a couple of gifts for them. Cue panic from me as we'd never discussed gift giving (we've known each other a few years but this year have seen each other considerably more because our children have become good friends) so this wasn't something we've done previously.
I have a cupboard with a few decent presents in for when parties or whatever crop up, so I don't always have to run around - it's just less stressful having it as a go-to (for times exactly like this!) and so discreetly chose a present for each of her children, wrapped them and gave them to her when she left.
She later text thanking me and said her children loved the presents.
I figured it was probably best to let mine open theirs so that I could sent a reciprocal message back.
It was an item of clothing each, one too small and one 1 year too big. Both clearly used (bobbly and pulled) and smelling of her washing powder. They're obviously her children's old clothes.
She'd said when she handed them over that she had gift receipts for them.... What would you do?
Money not an issue with her - she spends a lot of money on regular treats for herself and family.
