A vinyl hot pink wallet. It was the ugliest thing on the planet.

Last year at Christmas, which was the first Christmas I'd spend away from my family, my mom gave me NOTHING.
I came home a bit before Christmas with presents I'd picked out for the entire family. I even bought something for my mom's boyfriend.
HE, the boyfriend, gave me much-appreciated cash. (I was about to spent 6 months living and working in New Zealand, which is why I wasn't going to be home for Christmas.) NOBODY else in my family gave me any gifts. My brothers, being younger (one's only 15), are excused. But my own mother?!
The worst part was, she made me use her credit card (we have the same name, so it's easy to do that) to buy my brother a $400 ipod touch and her boyfriend $300 sunglasses.
Them -- $700 worth of stuff. Me -- nothing.

So to all you who have funky sweaters, etc... something is better than nothing. (Unless, maybe, it's an iron or cooking lessons! LOL, what funny/awful stories.)

My worst gift came from one of my aunts.

It was a box filled with 2 tins of cookies and 2 boxes of chocolate covered cherries...


Doesn't sound like a totally bad gift does it?













Until you consider I've been a DIABETIC for the last 20 years!!!!


That gift was totally useless to me.

A weedwhacker. You know i like tools, but woodcafting tools not gardening. Its like my Harley riding DH a giftcard from a BMW motorcycle dealer.

A used juicer with parts missing from my MIL while they paid for my BIL TN vaccation. I refuse to use that darn thing and am about to throw it away.

My husband brought me a little something from his first scuba diving trip. All the guys on the trip were jealous that he had thought up such a thoughtful gift to bring home.

It was a big, dead, smelly, slimy starfish in a plastic bag. Totally *gross*!

Okay - here's one for the can-you-top-this-gift department.

I have a friend whose husband's family approaches Christmas a leeeettle bit differently. Her dh has one sib - a sister. The two families get together for Christmas and everybody gives to everybody else. If my friend's sister-in-law determines that my friend spent LESS on gifts than the she herself did - she sends a bill for the difference. I kid you not. She absolutely expects my friend to send a check for the perceived difference in value...and, sadly, my friend does it - to keep the peace in her own household. Merry Freakin' Christmas.

My ex wanted a playstation for her daycare, so she gave me one for Christmas, knowing I couldn't care less about video games. So, to fix her plow, I moved a tv into the bedroom, hooked it up there, and never used it. That lasted a month. I left it behind when the time came to part ways, so she would have a reminder to treat her next victim.. er, husband a bit better

I'm a country girl, in the dirt almost all the time. Our first year of marriage (going on 22 years) he got me a pair of WHITE (high heel) knee high boots.

I had to tell him to take them back. I wouldn't get his $'s worth because I wouldn't wear them much! Now he uses that as an excuse not to buy me anything because he thinks I'll send it back. He did get me a shotgun and a nice fishing pole that HE could use if I didn't (whatever)
