Worst/Strangest Christmas Present!

Melaniep101

My worst present was one given to me by an ex boyfriend's mum one Boxing Day. We'd driven a couple of hours to visit her and were staying overnight, but on getting there, we realised that she had no intention of providing a meal or anything! Not a scrap of food in the house...

Her present to me was a Toblerone that was 2 years out of date. We were so hungry we had to eat it!

500 posts long, so i'm not going to go back and see if i've already posted this but the present that always comes to mind was from a Nephew who's a multi-millionaire, he's even had a mention in the Sunday Times list. The present ............. a packet of garden seeds, i was sure it was a joke and spent the rest of the day waiting for him to go out to his car and get the real gift. But that was the real gift, and to make things worse, none of them grew.

I've always thought that the reason rich people are rich is because they seldom spend any money :cool:

My partner takes tablets which mean he can't have any alcohol. I'm allergic to chillies. Last xmas my sister bought us chilli flavoured vodka.
She literally found the only drink that could kill us both !

My ex once got me a mini fridge and a blanket. His excuse was that I was always cold at his house and if I had a mini fridge in his bedroom, then I could bring the kettle upstairs so I wouldn't have to get out of bed to make him tea in the mornings. Notice how he is an EX....

Not sure if i have posted this before. A few years ago my aunt brought my nan (her mum) a bikni shaver. Yes, it is nice to keep the 'garden' tidy but my nan is 79, crippled in a wheelchair with aurtherits, and her hands are all bent, we have to shower her! We all had a good giggle nan included

One year, my nan bought my dad a 1p hidieous tie from a charity shop as a jokey present. Dad loved it! We thought he was just saying that to make her feel the joke had backfired as it was really hideous. Nan's long gone but dad still wears the hideous thing and claims to genuinely like the hideous tie.

Did I say it's hideous?

A textbook of mathematics... the worst present ever!!!

Patronus

Coat hangers. :huh:

And a hand wash/hand cream combo that looked like it was from the pound shop and the gifter knew I would never be able to use since I suffer from really bad eczema on my hands and have to be really careful.

Both gifts are from a supposed best friend...it's the thought that counts? :think:
