A perfume and matching moisturiser set that I had given THAT person the Christmas before – cheeky cheeky!!
Yes please!
Please can I win 🙂 Another great prize Melbourne Mamma 🙂
a diffuser that smelt sickly ……sorry about “yes please” – did not read the question provided 🙂
A 2nd hand vase that was all brown on the inside from old water. My sisters got lovely perfume from the person I missed out big time!
a toilet roll holder doll >.< was scary and horrific!
Yah Yah Yah
Im a teacher so I have received my fair share of bad pressies (along with some fantastic ones!!) Once I received a horrible smelling perfume which the child insisted I put on then and there
Yes please
The worst gift I received was when I was an early teen my gran had put all the freebies she had collected over the year into a parcel for me. I received this when my cousins got royal albert tea cups – that hurt.
My partners granny has the award for this. She sends a big box full of junk she’s collected for us. It usually contains something strange from an op shop (last time a glass cheese board, how can you cut cheese on glass!) and strange magazines and books, my partners old school work, and lots and lots of broken plastic pieces from other plastic things that she thinks we can use. She’s very sweet but they’re horrible gifts.
Saucepan set – how unromantic is that!
A laundry hamper is all I got for Christmas one year when I was a kid… My parents weren’t happy at the state of my bedroom floor and figured if all I got was a laundry hamper for Xmas then maybe I wouldn’t leave clothes lying around everywhere anymore! (It didn’t work, lol)
Chocolates and moisturizer sets I get a lot, which is a real shame as the people giving them to me keep forgetting I’m allergic to both. The family and friends I pass them to a re more than happy to receive though. At least they think of me.
A set of bathroom scales from my mother in law
Worst Christmas present I’ve ever received was a wooden box from my aunty. Apparently to “put my stuff in when I move out”. Pointless and cheap.
Nothing specific stands out, although I do detest the fact that every year I need to buy my own gift if I want to open something up on Christmas Day! Hubby ‘forgets’ to buy me anything!
Toss up between the pre-scratched non-winning scratchies from my uncle and the bewildering rubber Star Wars head thingy money-box (minus the stopper) from my sis-in-law. These were given in the same year….. sort of an odd connection really. Like I’ll always be penniless? lol
A handmade card from my Grandmother. At the time I hated it – it was made from a piece of A4 paper folded in four, then some dried flowers stuck to the front and covered in Contact plastic adhesive covering. It must have been the first time she had used Contact because it was creased and poorly done. Now this is a special gift I still have in my possession and the is most treasured memory I own from my Grandmother.
For secret santa one year I received a naked doll which looked as if a dog had chewed on it – not funny!
Little girl Hello Kitty undies frombmy Dad in my late teens. So wrong on so many levels!
A ghastly printed t-shirt, 2 sizes too small. Flattering, but ugh. No, just no.
Once my partner got me a Laminator – um thanks hun!
Arnotts Dixie Drumsticks for kris kringle!
My husband bought me a garden fork!
And spent $75 dollars on it! It was stolen from the garden by someone who recognised it as not the $7.95 variety. Now we don’t buy each other presents but go shopping together for something we both want 🙂
Incidentally, got a $7.95 garden fork after that and it broke within a week so turns out he wasn’t so crazy spending so much on it.
P.S. Super giveaway!
An ironing board 🙁
A can opener….not even an electric one! A crappy old can opener! Still shaking my head over it!
A salt and pepper shaker. In the shape of a chicken and a rooster. They only problem was that the rooster had no pepper holes!!!
A real fur overnight bag that my friend had made especially for me thinking that I would absolutely love it!
An Ab Roller. He thought I would get good use out of it.
Out of principle – I have never touched it since.
Some bigger and better than others, but none bad… All presents gratefully received here these days!
Clothing from my MIL that was nothing like what I would ever wear!
When I was young I was given a cd of Christmas tunes – trouble was I never owned a cd player
Childrens underwear…when I was 16.
Purse because I don’t like the design of it.
Seeing family out on Christmas day, to go back inside and find our puppy had done a pooh under the Christmas tree!! Worse pressie ever for so many reasons.
Phone call from the doctor delaying hubbies vasectomy!!! Worst pressie ever, because this was meant to be our Christmas present for each other!!!
Now my eldest son is convinced that one year he was so naughty we gave him coal for Christmas! Of course this isn’t true but he is 100% convinced!!
The chainsaw my husband presented me with a few years ago definitely beat his previous best effort of a grumpy garden gnome!
The worst Christmas present I ever received was when I was 7, my great aunt who was filthy rich got me a happy meal for Christmas!
A set of six plain wooden coat hangers from my new mother-in-law. I was truly shocked.
I received window cleaner from my in-laws. I’m not sure whether it was a statement on the quality of my windows or the quality of our relationship!
A perfume gift set from my mother who said “hope you like it I bought it for Judy but couldn’t fit it in my suitcase” Gee thanks Mum
A dirt encrusted garden gnome wrapped in newspaper and obviously nicked from the garden down the road!
Ford hubcaps for my Holden Commodore
