Ok mumsnetters, I have a family tradition I need some assistance with this year as I barely get a chance to leave the house with new baby and don’t drive - finding the ultimate gift is going to be extra hard.
I need to find the most awful, tacky, frankly hideous piece of Christmas genius going.
Winners of this accolade in previous years have included a battery powered singing Santa that climbs up and down a little rope, and a light up singing snow globe emblazoned with the immortal words “Marry Christmas” that ocassionally fired out tiny polystyrene snowballs. It needs to be cheap, loud, annoying, the kind of thing you look at and just think “why?” And I need to be able to get hold of it fairly easily (online is preferable) here’s hoping you can help!

I saw one of these yesterday and fell in love! I guess my tastes aren't as high brow as I thought! Grin

How about a dog that raps to Christmas songs?

Best one I ever found was a ‘bra’ with Christmassy bits on, and two of those squeaky blow-out things that shot out from the nipples when you squeezed a rubber bulb that you held behind your back.

We had guests with dogs staying that year, and their Westie would go mad at this - jumping up and trying to ‘kill’ the blow out squeakers. He never made it - much too small - but it was bloody hilarious.

Alas it was years ago and IIRC I found it in BHS.

I love these ideas guys but can you help me find something REALLY distasteful?

DietCokeChipsAndMayo · 17/11/2021 10:43

I don’t even know how to describe this one tbh but you said distasteful-

Blush I actually think those might make my aunt wet herself with laughter but not sure I could look my uncle in the face again

The cat nativity is wonderful!

Pbbananabagel · 17/11/2021 19:41

If the cat nativity wasn’t so expensive it’d be the one but it’s more than the budget for my kid!
