Have you received any?

What do yoh do with them??

I have loved everything so far but there's more to come and know full well will be something we hate

Is it rude to be honest or just smile sweetly and put it in the wardrobe with the previous pressies from years gone by

Not opened any yet. Me and my friends do a recycled present every year which we know was bought for them the previous year. It's a good idea and can be funny or a nice gift xx

Our little un's school does a fundraiser in Dec where you take in an unwanted gift or two and for 50p an item the kids can buy something from the donations and the school help them wrap and label the new gifts for mum and dad. Is a bit hit and miss but we've had some nice bits and the kids love choosing it themselves.

Pass them on. Toiletries get collected by refuges or food banks.

Anything else, charity shop.

The most annoying was an M&S musical Xmas pyramid that allegedly contains shortbread. Just why??!!

The crap,pressies we get are usually from hubby's mother

She buys him shirts he hates and never puts receipt in........he would dream of asking

Plus we have tried saying don't bother with pressies and just save your money

We can't pass them on as no one else we know would wear them

But you could pass them to a charity because someone would be grateful
