Whats Your Worst Ever Christmas You Recieved

makesnosense

Most of my bad presents come from the same person, my nanny (not actually related by blood thank goodness). Past horrors include:

An umbrella that was already broken
Olive and Avocado goop (she got it free from Nescafe)
The worst candlesticks I've ever seen
Peeball (not from her but still worth a mention because I'm a girl)
A so.. Kiss me gift set free from a 3 for 2 offer (was also a goth at the time)
A worlds best daughter mug (was on sale for a pound in a local card shop, also 2 weeks after my dad told me he'd chosen to never love me (in front of entire family and step-mums family))

Also a manicure kit for my brother (he is the least feminine bloke I know).

Well it could be nothing. The first year my now husband and I got together and he asked what I wanted I said "oh nothing" and he took me seriously, although I hadn't realised that he had. I had bought him loads of gifts and I waited all day for my surprise and then realised that I didn't actually have one coming. lol, poor thing was so embarrassed. I now always make a point of saying "surprise me with something" if I can't decide.

My worst ever present was a set of plates, cups and saucers from my ex.They were nice but !!!!!! I felt like smashing them when i opened the paper.I asked him if they were exclusively mine, or was he going to use them as well:eek: :eek:

A battery operated lady shave. From my ex-boyfriend. Apparently it was because I had once complained I cut my leg shaving - still, I was slightly insulted!

When O/H and I were B/F & G/F I must have moaned about shaving my legs and he bought me a top of the range epilator, you know one of those shavers that pulls the hairs out of your legs:eek: . He took some stick about torturing me and the thing was only ever used a few times.

Not a christmas present, but it was a 40th birthday present and it was so bad it deserved a mention!

My brother is the worlds worst present buyer - he has NOT A CLUE! In fact, he's so bad we've decided to let him off present buying for ever! (maybe he had that in mind!! :rotfl: )

What happened was it was my sister's 40th birthday and he was invited to her party. He 'forgot' he was meant to get something until we reminded him. So, thinking he'd get her something 'practical' - he got her an EXTENSION CABLE from the petrol station on the way there!!! :eek: :eek:


He doesn't get away out of buying completely though, we make him turn out his wallet when we go to his house on a visit! :rotfl:

I was going through a Goth stage at the time so unwrapping a beige cardigan was a sight, i did try to look greatful but my dad said my face said it all (apparently it made his christmas), my grandma made it worse by asking if she could have it as her friend had one similar and she had been looking for one! :rolleyes:
