What Was The Worst Present You Got

[hammerman]

I'd really like someone to try to beat this. My father in law bought my wife (his daughter) a set of 3...............coat hangers !!!!

A friend gave me a bottle of Powers Whiskey in a slightly tattered box. I've more than a suspicion it's the same bottle I gave him last year. I don't drink whiskey now and he doesn't drink at all. If ever there was a white elephant...

When I was 30, split from o/h and moved back with parents. Dad bought me first present in 15 years,,,,,a suitcase.

[sandyRoe]

It's the thought that counts ^ ☺

i'd be happy to take it off your hands sandy, you can keep the box

I once got a Russell brand dvd, **** makes me want to stick rusty nails in my eyes and red hot pokers in my ears

[janbee]

Oh steg, I couldn't agree more.

[sandyRoe]

Steg, if you sent Aelmpvw that dvd and I sent the Powers he could use it as a coaster to keep the bottle from scratching the table.

One year i was hoping my husband would buy me some perfume for christmas, i like more or less any perfume, love the stuff
He gave me a pair of oven gloves, a shopping bag and a plastic set of kitchen scales. and wondered why i wasnt delighted.!!!

^That's 3 presents. He's spoiling you.

Hammer man, thanks for making me laugh with this thread. I was crying with laughter at some of the answers!

A few years ago my OH gave me a new car windscreen - obviously very functional, but zero in excitement factor.

One year we bought my dad a posh bottle of whisky...Mr. c got it back the following Christmas, lol!

[Buenchico]

To tell you my worst present this year would be extremely unfair to the person who gave it to me, since it was my only present (my first one for seven years in fact) and actually rather nice.

However I've previously been given a set of sash window locks, despite not having sash windows!

One Christmas my sil gave me a can of de-icer and an hatchet !.

[carrust]

I was given an Aston Villa shirt. It made a very good duster:-)

Cheeky git ^^^^^^

Flumps. (you know the marshmallow sweets) My mum buys me a bucket of them every year and I've no idea why - I can't stand them, and have dropped several hints over the years.
Mind you, with next doors annual boxing day karaoke party warming up, they might be the most useful present ever - ear-plugs! ;-)

I've been trying to think of the worst present I've ever received but can honestly say, for anyone that's ever had to que in the run up to Christmas and pick a present for me, wrap it and give me I think that's brilliant and I genuinely love all I've ever received, except the time an ex got a hint I was about to dump him (and I was) he bought me an engagement ring - that was thoughtless, ridiculous and I wanted to shove that ring where the sun wouldn't shine, I didn't.. I walked away - maybe that was a good present after all. I've never had a worst present - luckily my family and friends know my likes and dislikes

Our first Christmas married, two poverty-stricken students, the OH gave me a set of Robert Carrier cooking cards, we needed to use a dictionary to find out what many ingredients were. For my 50th, many years later and slightly more solvent, he bought me a Terry's chocolate orange, which I loathe!
