Worst Chrissy Pressy ever!

[kenkew]

My worst one was a bottle of liquid called, 'Pretty Feet'.
Suppose to combat sweaty feet I think. My girlfriend at the time never even got got close to my feet (!) so I don't know why I got that particular pressy....very upset that year.

What's you worst or most memorable Christmas pressy?

Hubbie bought me a bath spa thing ( last min it was on special offer in argos at chrismas eve )

The thing has been in its box since chrismas in the bathroom as it need fitting and there are very few places we can place it in the bathroom. Currently its being used to put books on!

From my in-laws:

As I unwrapped the "re-cycled" Christmas paper, removing this year's and last year's sellotape, and read the label with the previous recipient's name crossed out and mine scrawled on, I could hardly contain my... er... anticipation. I wasn't disappointed - There was an eye-mask, a small bar of soap,  three singly-wrapped wet-wipes and two boiled sweets - all with the logo of the world famous airline on which they'd just returned from a round the world trip.

...and they'd taken the wrapping paper on the trip with them...

... and yes, they're now my outlaws

;D

An opened bottle of wine that had turned to vinegar !!

Oh and a wicked looking cardy that Mum had made  coplete with dropped stitches and odd buttons, BUT   I wore it proudly all day as she was almost blind with cataracts. We both had a big laugh a few months later when she had her eyes fixed. Just loved her to bits.

I don't think I've ever had a bad christmas present. I find the whole christmas thing horrendous so I don't expect anything.

Not mine, but a friend was given a tea trolley adorned with a dinner service. Her husband mistook her tears for tears of joy  ::)

5 boxes of cloth hankies from 5 different relatives when I was 10 and also down with chicken pox at the time (the spots came out on Xmas Eve). :'(

I always used to buy my grandad a comb when I was little. He used to say 'How useful!' with a huge grin on his face. It took me 20 years to realise that he was laughing so much because he was almost completely bald!  :-[ :)

A mobile phone with a photo option.  OH bought it cos my old one died.  He didn't bother to buy the dooberry for downloading photos to PC and we have a very good digital camera anyway so why?

I hate the bloody things and now have the cheapest, most basic  model available and only for use in emergencies so onmy OH and Possum have the number, as wella s the garden group for when we're out on an excursion and getting lost.  If I'm home I have a land-line, email and fax and can be contactable.  If I'm out, I'm busy being efficient or having fun and don't want to be bothered with other stuff.  I don't text or read messages either.

an ex boyfriend bought me a rabit's foot brooch for my birthday and followed it up with a dried seahorse brooch for christmas..and he knew I was an animal lover  :o :o

My sister and her husband bought me a Michael Jackson video which was rubbish it just had bits of videos on it, i'm talking clips as short as 2 seconds yes 2 SECONDS !!
Oh and when you know my favorite music is punk rock and hardcore metal you'll understand why it tops my worst present list (which only has two entries on it the Jackson video and a book called "The Firm" which was a film with Tom Cruise in it, who by the way i cannot stand)

[Carol]

I have had so many awful presents that i just expect them every year.  Its not that I am fussy, its just stuff I do not use  like them gift boxes , stuff for pampering yourself complete with a mask and so on.  I save them up and give them away in raffle prixes throughout the year.  Hoping the person/s who give me the gifts do not attend.  I have not been caught out yet.

Flu!! in 1967.
Went out & partied - tried to get pissed & failed.
Nearly died, gave up and went home with a temp. of 104'.
If you seriously don't ilke someone - give 'em a dose of that!

My worst present ever, ever, ever, ever was a leather net ball.  I was about 9 and we were skint that year, I mean really skint, and my Mum wrapped it in newspaper.  The traumatic part was turning up at school with it and having it under my arm as the captains picked sides, then I was the only one left waiting with the poxy netball because I was crap at sports and no-one wanted me in their team.  I did the usual and cut up the oranges for half time.  Then to add insult to injury the boys nicked it off me at playtime and kicked it all round the playground, then it bounced off the back of my head.  I have never hated anything so much as I did that horrible netball.  Just thinking about it 35 years on makes me traumatised LOL
