What is the worst gift you have ever received?

[Comedyshortsgamer]

a couple of years ago my brother got me 6 cans of pepsi max for christmas, that was strange.

Size 16 sheepskin jacket from my inlaws im a 10 i actually think it was for SIL mum and she gave me the wrong parcel anyway we went NC the next year so no more naff presents. Mum gave me a femfresh shower set the other year that was interesting.

A box of generic perfume with a thick layer of dust on the packaging

A glow in the dark lightbulb night-light thing. From dh.

Hahaha I can see some themes are repeated here...

Nut chocolates (very clearly labelled) when I have a nut allergy.

Car equipment - I don't drive or own a car.

Complimentary stuff that the present giver had had for free during a long haul flight (think flimsy toothbrush, tiny toothpaste tub, soft socks).

Blank videotapes (showing my age here )

DH's family has many good points but giving carefully chosen, well presented gifts is beyond them

The back of a cereal box cut out with 63p sellotaped onto it from my auntie and uncle. I was 11. They got lovely presents from our family. [confused

Cash in a card from my (now ex) husband. It was something like £5/£10.

A tiny piece of meteorite from my husband.

A special plate which was to microwave fish in. From my Mil

A pair of really cheap kitchen scissors (with price tag of £1.47) which my mother thought was "good enough for you" after I'd asked for dressmaking scissors. They were only suitable for right-handed use and I'm a leftie. Oh and now I think about it, she thought this was such a brilliant idea that she actually gave me two bloody pairs, wrapped together!
My sister got a gold watch.

When I married my husband, I had to clear out half a wardrobe full of shaving gifts sets and bottles of aftershave which had been building up over the 25 years that he'd had a full-on Captain Birdseye beard!
Oddly, his family stopped giving him aftershave, or indeed anything at all, once he shaved the beard off.

Yesterday, for secret santa, I received a pair of shite reindeer antlers, a pair of plastic star shaped glasses for an infant and a 2 inch plastic water pistol.

Granted, the person that got me is new to the firm and took the definition of "gag gift" a little too literally but c'mon. Cheap bastard.

I've had some odd ones from FIL and his partner. Two books of second class stamps one year, he goes to Costco so will get a huge size of something random. We got some bizarre placemats and coasters one year with birds on them.

Bath bombs. I fucking hate bath bombs

From my mil I got a beautiful box wrapped absolutely gorgeous it looked like a bracelet or watch etc. I opened it Christmas morning and it contained 3 cheap biros 😂 Yeah I think she hates me

My last birthday my parents came round for cake and didn't bring anything in the way of a present. Weird but then my mother is a narc so it doesn't really surprise me. She also "forgot" my wedding dress fitting!

4 used ramekins (glass GU pots) - they had at least been washed and wrapped in Christmas paper).

An apron and a shopping bag from mil.
It was quite funny.
For a wedding present we were given a vase made out of concrete.

I got a tellytubbies t-shirt for xmas when I was 15. Aged 10-11. My sister got one too. She was 12. hers was age 7-8

A "baby starter kit" type thing (basically a big box with baby oil, nappies, wet wipes, bottles, baby grows etc.) from my very nasty now NC sister who was convinced (and kept telling everyone) that I'd change my mind about being child-free.

MIL gave me two Christmas tea-towels a couple of years ago. I thought she quite liked me up until that point.
I use them all year round because I'm a rebel.

I also hate it when the giver makes up some shitty story , as to why they are giving you utter crap !

When I was 19 my boyfriend bought me a travel iron. He thought this was very thoughtful as we’d travelled together and I’d complained about creased clothes.

One year my Dad bought my Mum a peg bag, and some pegs. She didn’t talk to him for a long time.

My mil (never been my biggest fan) thought the obvious choice of present for me was a set of 3 books all of which were true stories and focused on effects of emotional abusive mothers on children- cheers mil!

No hilariously bad presents that I can recall but plenty of generic ones where clearly no thokhbt has gone into who I am or what I'd like, it's just ticking off a name of someone they think they are expected to buy a present for. I'd rather just not get a present!

I'm laws bought me a Santa shaped dog toy one year. We don't have a dog. They just like to buy the cheapest shit, they think its quantity not quality. They buy everyone crap.
