So for fun between myself and my sister we are doing a 'Shit Santa' a bit like secret Santa but with the most hideous bit of Christmas themed tat we can find, budget of £5. I need help finding the best tat please Grin

What about that wooden spoon from one of the ebay threads on here? You can get it monogrammed.

TripTrapTripTrapOverTheBridge · 30/11/2016 15:00

I'd recommend looking on your local FB pages or get some recommendations from the FB tat threads on hereGrin

FizzBombBathTime · 30/11/2016 15:04

Me and my friends used to do this

We called it 'skanky santa'

I remember getting a stained snake toy that was originally from Ikea and some Betamax 😂

£10 could pay for water kits for at least 10 families for a month to provide clean drinking water. Why not just do that, rather than buy some tat that'll give you both a laugh for a minute?

FizzBombBathTime · 30/11/2016 15:17

Because they don't want to Ifailed.

Maybe op has already donated to a charity of her choice

Maybe op just wants to have a laugh

Is that allowed?

MorrisZapp · 30/11/2016 15:18

I think for this to be ideologically sound the fiver should be spent in a charity shop, there's heaps of appalling shite in there although there's always the temptation to buy something decent! I'm sure it's a good laugh but I couldn't bring myself to buy out and out shit for my sister. I'd have to compromise on 'tasteless but fun' like a cheesy dvd and some shady booze.

JiltedJohnsJulie · 30/11/2016 15:19

We always do this but it has to be from Poundland. Have a look at Hawkins Bazaar stocking fillers. There is an egg poacher that makes your egg look like a mans cock. Who wouldn't want you that on their morning toast?

MorrisZapp · 30/11/2016 15:23

Watch out though, Poundland raise their game every year. Much of their stuff looks like it came from Paperchase! The fake Soap and Glory stuff could be a good bet.

Bobsmum02 · 30/11/2016 15:36

I like jiltedjohns suggestion, who wouldn't want that gift!!

Your not allowed fun at Christmas on Mumsnet

You have to put your tree up on Xmas eve, back down on Boxing Day and you must volunteer at a shelter

DramaInPyjamas · 30/11/2016 16:21

How about a mug with a crappy Christmassy message on it Grin

A mug is useful so not a 'complete waste' of money

Here you go tat thread

What a misery ifailed.

Ifailed · 30/11/2016 18:04

What a misery ifailed.

Why? Planning on spending £10 on something they know is not wanted, for a laugh, is not particularly funny. Why not just tell each other a joke. It's down there with a Cake Smash.

wobblywonderwoman · 30/11/2016 18:06

Christmas toilet seat cover.. Will try to link... Really hygienic too Grin

LineyReborn · 30/11/2016 18:08

If you spend £10 on your local FB tat, that's ten quid going to a woman who probably needs the money you and it's ten quid into the local economy.

LineyReborn · 30/11/2016 18:09

Dunno where that extraneous 'you' came from...

Giselaw · 30/11/2016 18:10

But it is wanted ifailed. They are in competition to find the worst tat. It is very much wanted and it brings them joy.

If you're going to be sanctimonious and tell others how to spend their money, why not just stand in front of Starbucks or Costa and lecture each potential customer about to spend £3 on a fancy beverage about how they should donate to charity instead.

FizzBombBathTime · 30/11/2016 18:10

Just because you don't find it funny doesn't mean others won't

10 quid spent in a charity shop is well spent,no?

FatOldBag · 30/11/2016 18:13

What about these?
Home-made, hand crafted, artisanal sanitary towel slippers! You can decorate them to make them as sparkly and Christmassy as you like!
