Val (Zebedee) Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 What have been your all time worst and best presents you have ever received? Not just this year but for ever lol Have you ever given a present that the recipient really loved or found out later that they exchanged / gave away etc as they didn't like it? Come on, there must be loads haha ......... and we won't tell anyone! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sarahp87 Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 It wasn't me but I went to a Jimmy Carr show earlier this year (actually the recording for the new DVD) and this topic came up. One lady in the audience had received a bread maker instead of an engagement ring!!! lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BingBlaze n Skyla Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Can't remember any bad presents I've had, maybe I didn't get any lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I don't really celebrate Christmas, but I did buy myself something (a fake golden pocket watch with a butterfly in front. Bought in China, the land of amazing fake stuffs LOL) just because everyone seem to be receiving gifts best present I have ever gave to someone is a little toy dog I got my friend back in grades school. She's a massive dog lover, can't forget the smile on her face when she opened the wrapping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val (Zebedee) Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Plants are a strange present, though I have bought them for my Mum in the past as she likes them lol That breadmaker story made me giggle! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 was just wondering, but did anyone buy their dogs xmas presents? I know I know dogs should be dogs and not humans, but sometimes it's hard to fight the urge I didn't, but that's only because I couldn't find any pet stores in China Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 was just wondering, but did anyone buy their dogs xmas presents? I know I know dogs should be dogs and not humans, but sometimes it's hard to fight the urge I didn't, but that's only because I couldn't find any pet stores in China I think Sarah bout the dogs presents first. Not only that, she wrapped them and let them open em ... Personally, I think she is a bit mental LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val (Zebedee) Posted December 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 I have always bought the dogs pressies, and I used to wrap them as Diesel loved to rip the paper off! This year, I didn't wrap but I did buy the dogs a doggie Christmas cake, some doggie Yule logs and lots of rawhide treats :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazz Posted December 29, 2013 Report Share Posted December 29, 2013 Best present was a Schwinn bicycle when I was a kid. Worst present was a wine cooler which I immediately regifted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angelniki Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 I got my hubby a t shirt with Loki on it - it was a pic from the photoshoot she had in August. I also got him a photo book made with pics of Loki from when we got her it took me days to do that. I had to go through loads of pics then only pick about 150 - i also added some then and now pics in to show how she has grown.- he loves it best prezy ever. I got Loki some prezies too and wrapped them - it was her 1st Xmas. I think the wrapping lasted longer than the gifts but still she loved them for the 5 mins it took her to 'kill' them x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa n Skye Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 skye ended up with 20 presents last year and each one was wrapped lol ( forgot i had bought her things til i went to wrap them) :-( she only got 6 presents this year 3 of them wrapped. She loves unwrapping presents, and even when at my brothers shocked people by helping unwrap one of my presents and one of my brothers housemates presents, she unwraps them so carefully. I'm not sure what my best and worse presents have been... i do remember tho for years asking for a horse, ended up with a massive horse teddy one christmas lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loolie1106 Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 It was Thor's first Christmas this year and I did wrap presents for him. Just tennis balls and hard plastic toys (I think all but one tennis ball is in the bin already) he unwrapped them very carefully and spat the paper onto the floor. It was very cute. Shame he didn't like them that much. He has some toys for months and just plays carefully, but there's others that he decides that he doesn't want and destroys them within a week! My worst present was a snuggie blanket last year after laughing at the advert for months! Sorry if anyone has one â˜ºï¸ And the best is probably bath bombs from Lush. I love handmade smelly bath bombs! We don't buy much for Christmas we tend to treat ourselves when we go Christmas shopping instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loolie1106 Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Wait! I just thought of a worse present!! A pink poodle teddy off my brother a few years ago..... I hate pink and don't like poodles!! I think it made it worse being off my brother because he should have known I wouldn't like it haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Val (Zebedee) Posted January 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Wait! I just thought of a worse present!! A pink poodle teddy off my brother a few years ago.....

He really put a lot of thought in to that one unless he meant to wind you up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keeonah Posted January 1, 2014 Report Share Posted January 1, 2014 Probably the best present is the laptop I got this year from the wife bless her. Every year she tries to better what I get her and always fails. This year she beat me hands down The worse present, Hmmmm, toss ..up between the beer drinking hat or the self stirring mug, both from my son. Gary.
