Gifts for people you hate

[LadyCampanulaTottington]

I have to buy a gift for my odious mother. For many complex reasons I can’t not but I want to put as little thought and effort in as possible.

What have you bought for people you hate? I need ideas!

A Bayliss & Harding gift set with a poorly removed sale sticker sounds utterly perfect.

Buy them a toilet in another country. You can give them a framed certificate to show for it.

A Yankee candle and some Turkish delight

Once was given a horrendous studded purse by a relative who was not happy with me! Passive aggressive present giving is hilarious 😆

@SylviaTrench wins.

A book you know they won’t want to read. Second-hand, preferably with a particularly cracked spine. Just in case they read it, remove the last page.

Charity goat.

My MIL once gave me a multi packet of soap for Christmas, with one soap removed and still wrapped in the torn paper covering.

Something off brand from Poundland. Like their own brand Lindt chocolate or a toiletry gift set that doesn’t even have a name it just says ‘body wash’

Pick up a gift from the unwanted gift section in a charity shop

@Poppins17 @AD3000 me too, I’ve actually asked dh for the Baylis & Harding light up glass decanter bubble bath for Christmas, it was a toss up between that and the Christmas wreath set but I liked the bottle best and how it is reusable and will look nice on the shelf! I’ve used up the bauble shaped ones from last year that smelt lovely! 🤫☺️

A knitted mug warmer

How about buying one of those charity gifts? Here you can literally send a toilet. Means that it’s not a waste of money and someone gets some benefit

Scented drawer liners

You can buy dung as a charity present for poor farmers. You could say in the gift card, “saw this and thought of you xx” about literal shit.

LIDL is selling Christmas jumpers decorated with the LIDL logo.

Experience days, tick. Crap craft gifts, tick. Toiletries you can buy at a supermarket, tick. I thought my DPs mum was not the best at presents but it turns out..she hates me :0

@MrsSkylerWhite 😂 now that has to be the best one

Or a toilet like a pp just suggested above. That too will send the message you think she’s a piece of shit.

I've just got my sons girlfriend a hot water bottle, it's what my son suggested she'd like (she is pretty cold) and this one's quite fitting it's made to look like a dog.

@WithANameLikeDaniCalifornia maybe the toilet certificate in the Xmas card and the lidl logo Christmas jumper aswell ‘just to have something to open.’ 😏

Talcum powder. Utterly useless product.

Or pot pourri.

Charity donation in her name. You're doing something nice and it won't benefit her at all.

I've seen a few suggestions on here of things I have actually bought for people in the past... Oops

I bought someone I don’t like a white outfit for their child . . . and some playdoh.

One way ticket somewhere! Further away the better!
