What do you say in response to that gift?!!
My friend's best wedding gift: a box of cheap glasses with a card attached. The card was addressed to someone else and said "happy 21st"!
One of my cousins gave me a $15 check for a wedding gift (in 1985). I deposited it and the check bounced not once but twice and MY BANk charged me $5 each time!!!! The second time I got the check bank I gave it to my dad who went to that specific bank to get cash (it took a while).
One of my BIL thinks its quanity over quality get these collectible santas-not to my taste. Once this really weird box on how to make (the ugliest) birdhouses.
Once DH gave me this pink sweater for christmas that had all these rhinestones on it plus way to big-when I returned it someone bought it a few minutes later!!! And for our 10th weddng anniversary-the gaudiest emerald ring-one woud have thought it was fake-really ugly I exchanged for a more restrained (and more expensive) model!!!

I think the weirdest gift I've ever recieved was a roll of Christmas Wrapping paper. And it wasn't even nice paper. It was butt ugly and cheap! You know how hard it was to smile, act grateful and remain friends with this person?
That's exactly what I was thinking!
Clapper yep the clapper, had just gotten my kenwood sound system fixed, clapped to turn off the receiver and it burned up, or burned out don't know witch
How funny!
I once got a container of lard from a cousin; needless to say I think she was telling me something considering I'm stick-thin! That family would always remare at how skinny I was and ask really loudly if anyone ever fed me!
And I got her a nice cd!

Susan, so lovely that the dreadful granny gown somehow managed to disappear by the time I got home.Originally Posted by rosiemac
I bet you would have looked lovely in it Jen
Yeah, I agree... It reminded me of Forrest Gump.Originally Posted by Beckiboo
That is awful, but made me laugh out loud!
Yep, gotta admit that is horrible!Originally Posted by mzjazz2u

My brother has one of those too - actually, it sing "everybody was kung fu fighting" and has done for years..... it' sjust getting slower and flatter as the bateries die!! I think it's hysterical!
I brought one of my cousins one of those hamsters once. He loved it.
The first year I was married my DH got me a cheap veggie pealer for christmas.
The second year he got me ONE paring knife.
You think he would have learned after the tongue lashing he had gotten the first year.
His reasoning for the knife was that it was a REALLY good knife. Yeah, right! They both lasted under a year before they literallt fell apart
Sheesh!!

I once got a microwave rice cooker from the dollar store (the tag was still on). The first time I tried to use it in the microwave (what it said it was made for) it melted!

A lint brush
It was a gift from someone who didn't like cats - think she was trying to tell me something? I always thought cat hair was an accessory!

My ex got one of those. We put it on the floor so Oliver could play. You should have seen his expression when the fish looked at him and started singing!
I love this thread!
I can't stop laughing on some of the.....umm....gifts! But remember it's the thought that counts, I think?!
I was given a bowl of plastic fruit.
And here's the kicker...some of the fruit was missing!
Plastic, bad enough......but not even a full bowl? Come now!
Am I not worth more?
