Strangest/Worst present you've had

One Christmas I unwrapped the paper to be presented with an electric kettle in a box. Thought it was a strange present, put it in the attic. Not long after, my kettle blew up. Went and got the box out of the attic. Opened it - was presented with a pile of wrapped presents that had just been stuck in the box! My sister once had an iron for her birthday - that didn't go down well!

Any more contenders?

MAMOBA, miles and miles of bugger all (Aberdeenshire)

My ex husband bought me a set of pyrex dishes, and an electric tyre pump for the car. I'm really glad he spread this excitement as the main presents over 2 occasions - I really was a lucky lady

Essex.

When I was about 12 there was a big box under the tree from my grandmother.

Was it a Scalextric, a model railway or some other amazing toy???

Was it heck..... Pajamas, dressing gown, pants, socks and vests...

Apparently the look of pure disgust on my face as I said thank you was a picture....

I may have been ungrateful but I was polite... lol

That is worth having!

Actually, remembering correctly, it was treated pine cones, not logs And they barely lasted 5 minutes

Did they fall off the back of a lorry or something ? I think that wins so far.

Over the rainbow, under the bridge

My niece gave me a crappy card which was so thin like paper it wouldn't stand up.

Every year I gave her a quality present. That year I had bought her a set of French designer cutlery as she'd just got a new kitchen.

It was also my birthday and didn't even get a card for it.

Her boyfriend, though, had the nerve to ask why he hadn't got a prezzie. My response was to say I decided to get him the same as he had got me.

What was worse was that they were guests in my home for Christmas dinner, booze provided. They c didn't even turn up with a bottle and took a load of left overs home with them after getting my daughter to give them a lift as they didn't want to pay for a taxi.

At the time they had no children and both were working.

A 'friend' gave me a piece of fence post that had been very roughly chopped into an objet d'art - meaning the piece had been chopped into 4 or 5 shorter lengths. The splinter it have me meant it was more fitting as something to warm a cold winters night. No longer friends in any form.
