what's the WORST gift you've ever gotten?
 

hehehe just curious ;)

A set of Parfume/Deoderant...and AFTERSHAVE!!!! It was from the fiance last Christmas...and I thought he just bought it, not knowing the difference, BUT when I was packing to move down here I found it again and he asked why I never used it...I said because it was for men and he said "But it smells good"...yeah...for YOU....not that he needs any more calogne-he's got enough for the next 15 years!

I guess it's the thought that counts (and the gold necklace/earrings that accompanied it)...

That would have to be the granny panties I always seemed to get from one of my relatives every Christmas. Not only were they big, scary granny panties, but they were always at least 2 sizes too big. And I had to open the box in front of my entire family, which completely sucks when you're 10. I am so glad when that stopped!

Hands-downworst present: a USED "harvest gold," 1970's blender for my wedding anniversary....:rolleyes:

I HATED getting socks and underwear for Christmas.

Now, I hate shopping for socks and underwear, so I welcome them as gifts.

Ironic, eh?

I'm not sure that I'm even going to try to top that! Do you still speak to that person?

probably the "antique perfume sprayer" that turned out to be a PLANT MISTING BOTTLE! There was NO WAY you could fill that entire thing up with perfume...you would have needed like 5 bottles! :p

Honey, I am STILL married to this man, but his gifts have improved considerably...well at least for anniversaries....

Birthdays are a different story...One time he tied to my office door a moldy boquet of flowers (that were STILL in the Wal-Mart sack with the recpt!!!) from the "super discounted, expiration-date" flowers. Not a good birthday gift...No, No, No...:o

Silver

I'm sure that Mr. Silver has some other very good qualities!!




Please say it's so!

I had bought a new cell phone right before my birthday so I wanted cell phone faceplates. Little did I know I would get THREE of them. One was from my grandma, which I decided to keep. The other two were from my now ex bf. He discovered I had one too many so he decided to take one back and get me something else.

Never did get anything else. So yeah... for my 20th b-day my significant other got me a $2 cell phone plate from a flea market.

One time I thought I had genital warts after having sex with some random chick I picked up in a bar in Gainesville, the next day (the day after I had my freak out moment) I opened my door to leave for class only to find a box full of wart remover stuff. I ended up just having a rash from my bathing suit rubbing on me but I'll never forget that box of wart remover stuff. There must have been 50$ worth of shit in that box. :o

Before my grandmother died, every Christmas, I could look forward to "Days of the Week" underwear for kids. Even when I was 12, 13, 14, etc. One year she died right before Christmas & had already purchased & wrapped gifts. Instead of finding "Days of the Week" underwear & cheap jewelry she had bought me a beautiful turtleneck sweater, matching gloves, & a gorgeous gold necklace. I still regret not being able to thank her for that gift, but I still feel bad for all the "empty" thank-you's I had said each year before.

A set of REALLY cheap pens for my high school graduation; unwrapped and with the price still on them.

my mother got me life insurance for my birthday last year.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
That sounds like something my mom would do!

This is not a bad gift, but it is funny. My mom sends me care packages with really wierd stuff in it. One time it was the huge welfare size bottle of ketchup, socks, bug spray and a 4 boxes of mac&cheese. WTF?!

Another time I got 6 recipes, 10 grocery coupons for $$ off, notebook paper, a baseball cap, 3 more pairs of socks (all Halloween themed) a few boxes of pasta, a jar of sauce, and a phone card. She's so wierd.....
