What's the absolute WORST Christmas gift you ever got?

Question

What was it, who gave it to you, and what did you do with it?

Answer 1

Ha Ha! I was just thinking about this... I just received THIS years X-Mas gift from my Mother-In-Law in a bag full of old *** Tupperware... It was wrapped in some very old..USED wrapping paper, but since it was about the size of a Hershey's Pot of Gold box I thought it might be some candy...well to my surprise it was a BLOCK OF WOOD!!! with a note that said:
" I made this for you..put candles on this or whatever you like."
She is so cheap that she could not even go to the dollar store to buy candles to go with the stupid thing. I'm just wondering how the hell do I re-gift this thing???

Answer 2

I was 10 years old and I wanted a new Barbie Doll very badly. My sister knew what my gift was from my mom. She told me the first letter of each word, a "B" and a "D". I thought it mean "Barbie Doll." Unfortunately, the letters stood for "Desert Boots". If you grew up in the 60's, you'll know what they were. If you didn't and you're wondering, they were suede, lace up boots that came up over the ankle. Apparently they were a fashion statement at the time and reminded me of what Peter Pan wore. Besides, I was 10, fashion didn't mean a thing!
I was absolutely heartbroken. I was so looking forward to a new Barbie Doll and all I got was a stupid pair of boots! I was crushed. I hated those boots, but I had to wear them because "they cost money, you know and money doesn't grow on trees and you should appreciate what you get!"

Hi,
The worst Christmas gift that I ever got in my life was, an engagement ring from my ex-husband (he proposed to me on Christmas Eve of 1985)
Marrying him was the worst thing that I ever did and it all started with that stupid ring!!!
Talk about the worst Christmas gift ever....

Answer 4

Can't remember if it was an xmas gift or birthday, but a goofy sister-in-law gave me this god-awful purple velour shirt thingie with stripes down the sleeve. I think I ended up passing it off on another relative as a gift.

Answer 5

My godmother gave me a box that had pencils and a notebook and a calculator and a brown plaid rose pin. I dunno what I did with it, I ended up taking the box it was in and keeping all my nail polish in it. Or maybe it was last year when my mother in law gave me a big Christmas turtle neck. That's stored in my closet to wear to her house one day this Christmas season, then it's off to the Salvation Army.

Answer 6

The plastic bag and rubber band space helmet dad uses to give us every christmass.
Just kidding.
It would have to be the franklin mint pocket knife with the colt 45 on the side. My parents gave it to me.They realy thought I would like it. It is the ugliest knife. It is in my dresser draw. I will pass it on to my son. I hope he has the good taste to think its tacky too. I suppose he should pass it along to his children. I hope it gets passed on for along time. At least until its not Tacky but priceless.

Answer 7

My stepfather's ex-mother-in-law gave me a jar of oil of olay when I was 15. It was open and about a quarter of it had already been used. Ewwww. Needless to say I threw it away when she left.

Answer 8

Santa Claus button covers from Dollar General..yippee!!! From my aunt(who was only like 35 ) I put them in a drawer, never to be seen again.

Answer 9

A used hairbrush, bonus...it included someone else's hair in it too!

From my ex-mother-in-law, who was a garage sale junkie.

As soon as I got home it of course went directly into the trash.

(it was neither antique or valuable, just a cheap plastic drug-store brush...nasty!)

Answer 10

A fuzzy bear jacket that was three sizes too big and was all furry. It had these ugly bears dancing around on it and it was a horrible shade of brown... I didn't like it much.
