What was the dumbest christmas gift ever given to you?

my cheap skate uncle who was not poor, by the way, once gave me a can of shoe polish. He gave my brother a new tooth brush that year he bought his wife, my aunt, a new pontiac bonneville convertible for christmas that year. (1960's).


What's your story?

What was the dumbest christmas gift ever given to you?
well my grandma got me yardsale crap. 2 years ago she gave me:


*an old arial mermaid plush


*candy from 1992 (older than me)


*a dented ornament


*men's perfume (idk how to spell the word)


*an open lotion set with dead bugs in it


*and an umbrella for toddlers that was super bright green with little ducks and chicks on it


*size 10 or 9 in kids shoes


*mcdonalds ty beanie baby toy from happy meal

Reply:When I was 17 my great grandma gave me and both of my brothers a coloring book with a tiny pack of crayons. The kind they give at restaurants to keep the kids quiet. She was working on a budget, but I thought it was a bit inappropriate for my age group. We just laughed. In my family it really is the thought that counts, not the gift. But my family is pretty poor.





My former boss gave his teenage son a box of coal for Christmas 1 year. His son was being a douche, so my boss went %26amp; tried to buy just a lump of coal to stick in his son's stocking. But they wouldn't sell just 1. He had to buy like a bushel or something. So he put the lump in the kid's stocking %26amp; then he wrapped the rest up. His son thought it was a dvd player or something really good. Boy was his son pissed!!! But it was funny to hear the story!
Reply:Probably the dumbest one is a pencil. I didn't know why I got a pencil. By the way it came from my parents. Cheap!!!
Reply:well there was a satisfyingly-medium-sized present under the christmas tree last year and i thought "ooh! it may be a shirt or a gameboy game or an ipod!" and so i opened it eagerly and inside was......a gas mask. it was supposed to be a gag gift from my dad but it was just pure disappointment.
Reply:Don't be jealous, but one year I got a Fruit of the Loom sweatshirt from my aunt, and the matching sweatpants (with elastic ankles) from my other aunt.
Reply:a red lace bra and a matching corset like top......

Reply:Honestly can't even remember the dumbest gift I ever got. Usually I just say thanks and appreciate it...whatever it was. If I don't like it, I don't tell them when they are around, but usually wait until they leave and then tell someone else.





Nothing really dumb, though!
Reply:pair of scissors and a squish pillow...i was 27
Reply:Haha, that is pretty funny! Maybe he was trying to tell you that your shoes are scruffy and that your brother has bad breath?!





I've never really had a bad present as such, because I just love getting any present! But probably the weirdest was a sandwich toaster...





The worst ones are when you put loads of thought into a particular person's present and in return you get a generic gift like a box of bloody Celebrations or the 3rd gift in those 'buy 2 get the 3rd free' offers from Boots... haha
