So, yeah....what are you going to regift because it absolutely sucked? This year, or your worst ever?



Probably the two worst I can remember were these:

Age 13, my grandparents gave me a racetrack....ages 3+ ??? :\ Talk about being out of touch.

The other 'worst gift' was with the same grandparents. They had 6 kids (my mom was the oldest) and about13 grandkids. Tradition for the family held that all the girls got a box of chocolates, the boys got a can of nuts. I'm a chocoholic and I freaking hated nuts. One year, at their house, I got a can of nuts from them (no surprise) and one from 'Santa'. Wtf???


This year? Ha! I'm not getting any gifts - nothing to be surprised about :\
 
worst gift i've ever gotten? that would be what i get every year - disappointment (nothing)!
 
For about six years, my grandma gave me a huge bag of makeup every christmas, despite the fact that I was a complete and total tomboy and never, ever wore makeup. *sigh*
 
sad complaining about your cruddy gifts as mature adults
be grateful someone thought of you ;)

What I don't care for are the gifts received from people who feel they are compelled to buy a gift in which they put no thought into at all. Isn't that part of gift giving? The personal touch. That is the part that makes me happy about gift giving and receiving.

A gift is not always a gift. Sometimes it can be interpreted as an insult.
 
I was 16 and wanted a car, so my dad thought it would be funny to give me a toy car, YAY! just what i wanted-- there is your personal touch =\

My grandparents always give their grandchildren 50 dollars since i can remember. This year we all got coins made on the year we were born,, GREAT JOY, at least i did get something, but after so many years of getting $50 a little disappointing to say the least.
 
I dunno, I appreciate everything given to me, especially if its stuff I can actually use! socks, huge lighters, etc. I'm such an easy to please person ;)
Probably the worst gift would be paperweights....or stuff that have no purpose except to clutter up your home!
 
I actually loved all my gifts. :) One gift that made me laugh was a ziplock bag of beefsticks (apparently the BEST EVER! haha) wrapped in tissue paper and inside of a 'Boston Store' box. Weird... AND smelly.
 
I had one gift, so it's both my best and worst.

It was:

HOLY SHIT THAT IS AN AWESOME GIFT!!!! ^

ill have it if you dont want it

i fucking love FFFB!
 
The worst gift I ever had was my Dad loading us up on the train to go and spend christmas with my auntie and he just stood on the platform and disappeared out of our lives for two years.
 
Worst gift award takes me back to 5th grade. My grandma got me a 4 pack of black socks...which would make a great gift today as I could use them for work. All I could do was smile and say.."Thanks grandma, you're the best":mad:
 
i've appreciated every gift that was ever given to me :|










but the hardest ones to appreciate were the paddle w/ rubber ball attached (30yrs old) and male thong underwear packaged to look like xmas trees.
