I told my husband I would love some Bath and Bodyworks stuff...even told him the scents I like...and he gave me a gift bag with SIX bottles of the antibacterial hand soap in the pump bottles! I mean, seriously, how many bottles of hand soap does a gal need???What about the lotion, bubble bath, etc. SHEESH!Obviously he didn't even pay attention to what he was buying.

Worse gift ever would have to be for my first wedding anniversery my husband gave me one of those Miracle Thaw things you ran hot water on and it was suppose to thaw meat faster. Believe me he has been hearing about that for years. My best presents were my Embroidery machine, serger, and My new coat he just got me for early Christmas present, its a Jimmie Johnson 2006, 2007, 2008 Nascar Championship coat. Now I am not mad anymore that he didn't get me the 2 time championship coat last year.

It sounds to me like he went in there with the best of intentions and the sale girls were too busy to tell him he was on the wrong wave length.

If he's like my brother he thought they were hand lotion.

lol stephy! I hear ya... socks make my ankles itch.
And there is nothing more gross than wearing running shoes (the Canadian word for sneakers) with bare feet... that's why I like those rubber Holey Soles, wool clogs for slippers, thongs (the old word for flip flops before underwear were named thongs...), and bare feet.

Personally I hate socks and try to get away without ever wearing them so I have never owned a pair myself, but my neighbour, a hiker, swears by them. She said that she wore one pair for an entire week of hiking with no smell or wetness (I said, ewwwwwwww) but I've felt them in the store and they're very fine, so may not be as itchy as a sweater.

That reminds me of the time my husband and I were in Montreal on my birthday and he bought me a beautiful card, written in French, that he thought was a birthday card, but it was a Mother's Day card... and we have no children... and it wasn't Mother's Day! And he got me a gorgeous bouquet of flowers, but the next morning we were leaving for Ottawa and so I had to pack the silly things around, sticking out of my purse, filling ice buckets and displaying them every time we changed hotel rooms, until they died!!

My son wanted me to ad one, he got a gift yesterday from a family friend who always feels I need a man in my life to help raise Steven. He gave Steven an envelope yesterday containing 4 "protective items for men" you know what I mean..... and a note that said if he had any questions his mom couldn't answer to give him a call. I agree, that was about the worst gift he's ever gotten.

tight red long johns (pajamas) and giant red fuzzy slippers.
Oh my gosh. The shirt didnt even cover the butt.
The LAST thing I would lounge around the house in...
