Worst Christmas present
Jump to: Newest in thread
When my marriage ended my ex husband took my car off me (even tho he had his own) and smashed it up (no joke)
Having 3 children it was a bloody nightmare daily shopping to Tesco trying to carry everything. I was really hoping that my mum would loan me a little money to get a cheap runaround until I was on my feet
On Christmas Day she surprised me with a shopping trolley !! You know like little old ladies use haha
That was my worst Christmas present ever lol
What’s yours ?

I was going to say socks but having heard your tale i'd even appreciate a lump of coal and a satsuma. I truly hope your Xmases have been on the up and up ever since. |

I once bought a colleague a usb shagging dog... it really served no purpose but to rock back and forth against the usb port but when she opened it she thought it was really cute. I dont think she really understood what it was... |

My ex bought me a book on potty training
And a watch
( that I subsequently found out was off the back of a lorry)
A packet of biscuits ( from a multipack)
Some cookery books
Oh, and each member of his family bought me parts of a dinner service
( we had been dating a matter of weeks)
With hindsight, I think I was probably being groomed
All true
I couldn't make this shit up if I tried |

"I was given the most hideous mat/rug type thing with a terrible picture of a breed of dog that I own  "
We regularly get gifts with our breed of dog on, I like my dog it doesn’t mean I like random prints of his breed on cushions, paintings, clocks etc. yet I still keep getting given them |

My worst present had to be a pill box container thing. The one wth days of the week on that you put medication in that you need to take daily so that you can remember whether you've taken them that day or not.
I actually was shocked and said I didn't know whether to laugh, cry, or hit them over the head with it.
I also told them I was 40 yr old, not 80! |

Years ago I started going out with a guy in the November,and for our first Christmas together he bought me a frying pan!! Albeit a top of the range frying pan. I was horrified and had a right gob on!
20 years on I still use it regularly though so maybe it wasn't such a bad present after all.
The pan lasted longer than the fella. |

I also receive dark chocolates every year from a family member, as once, just the ONCE, said I liked dark chocolate. I was pregnant at the time and I'm sure it must of changed my taste buds throughout pregnancy.
Much prefer milk chocolate but don't want to tell them. So this year, no doubt it will be a box of black magic chocolates again. |

Sounds more like the usual/regular Xmas gifts that you get every year:
Socks
Pants
Deodorant/lynx box set |
