What Was The Worst Present You Got

[hammerman]

I'd really like someone to try to beat this. My father in law bought my wife (his daughter) a set of 3...............coat hangers !!!!

An onyx lion ! It went to a charity shop. In fact, maybe that's where it was bought in the first place. I KNOW it was a pressie and I KNOW I should be appreciative ..BUT...

Also, waaayyy back in the 70s, I was given an earthenware hen in which to keep eggs. It did the charity shop trip as well.

The worst one I've ever had was a ticket for a meal for two in a fish restaurant from someone who knew I'm allergic to fish.

Were they GOLD coat hangers ?

[hammerman]

No....they had a bit of purple stuff on them though !!!!! They're in the charity pile now !!!

[janbee]

Well done Hammerman, best place for them.

Straight candles can be used....straight but a bottled scented candle.....wots the point?

For me it was a large bag of peanuts, not such a bad idea as I do like them. Problem is, I've eaten to many chocolates and have given myself a sore mouth, so couldn't eat one, oh well.

My aunty gave me a toilet brush and holder when I was about 13 years old. Hmmm, that was right on the top of my list!

[ummmm]

I've never had a bad present although there are still a few that aren't opened yet....so we will see, in a bit.

My mums birthday is on the 23rd. One year my nan bought her a bag for her birthday and the same bag, different colour, for xmas.

My mum once got a balloon in her stocking, from my gran. Already inflated.

After my Mother had often said that she needed a new frying pan, I bought her one for Christmas, she wasn't impressed!

This year's worst present........a tea towel and I mean a ...i.e one!!!

Ok, I must confess to buying my sister a pair of flip flops for her birthday, a few weeks after having all her toes amputated through Osteoporosis.

Worst present for me was a bottle of apple schnapps - from someone who knew I can't drink alcohol! Last year my OH received a doormat - just a plain one, no amusing message on it or anything - we are still trying to work out the thinking on that one !

A friend who has been diagnosed with a serious heart problem was given an URN by a wood turner friend, just before Xmas.

not really this year - my sis gave me vouchers for the White Co rather than White Stuff...However....

worst given was a tulip shaped glass vase that kept on spiralling in down the stalk, and just plain revolting - great barf bowl as you could count the bits....

worst that I have ever heard of, a grandma who gave her 21 year old grandson a plot in the family graveyard.
