What's the worst gift......
 

I was reading through the posts today and there was a post that mentioned that their son had screwed a bunch of screws into the wall and I remembered one of the worst gifts that I ever gave my son was a set of screwdrivers! He was only about 9-10 yrs old and he used them to take apart EVERY toy that he could find that would work with the screwdrivers!! (He never figured out how to put the toys back together.) Then he used them to drill holes in the wall under his sister's bed.

What's the worst gift that you've ever given? Maybe it was to one of your kids......maybe your husband.......mom or mother-in-law. Tell us about it!!!

I didn't give it to her, BUT a friend of mine has always been the type who has to keep her hands busy. so she's always fingering something. As a joke her hubbie bought her some "slime" that was popular about 20 yrs ago. She'd sit and play with that stuff while visiting, watching tv, or whatever. HE got silly one night and pulled her waistband out and dropped in down her pants. At that point they found out WHY you weren't supposed to get it in hair. ;) It attached itself so badly that she had to cut it out. LOL

She still says that was the best and worst gift he ever gave her. ROFL

If I've given a bad gift, no one has ever told me....LOL :rolleyes:

But the worst gift I ever recieved was for my birthday a long time ago. My husband bought me a carton of cigarettes. I was so disgusted and hurt....he might as well told me to go die somewhere!!!

When I was 21 and my sister was turning 15, I got my parents permission to give her a puppy for her Birthday. Thinking I'd be funny, I bought a 3 lb bag of puppy chow to go with it and wrapped that up to hand her first. I figured she'd see what it was and say "But I don't have a dog!"

She eagerly unwrapped the package and started crying and screaming at me because she took it to mean I was insinuating she was a dog! I had to whip the puppy out from behind my back quick to shut her up. :( That one sure didn't go over like I'd planned! :confused:

Now that was funny!!! Sisters!!! I bet she just loved the puppy!!

ha ha ha these are funny
I like how your sister over reacted
I would've just stared at you like "what the h*ll?"
when people try to do fun tricks on me for gifts I just stare at them like "can we move on now?"

ha ha ha
I think I give ok gifts!!!
the worst gifts I give to me are like none. ha ha, if I forget someone!

jane west doll...
 

My sister was in love with her jane West doll as a kid. it is molded plastic from head to toe..the clothing and hair are painted on...And it is the ugliest doll I have ever ever seen! WELL... For Christmas a few years ago I got her this same doll on ebay as a gag gift! It was still the UGLIEST doll ever, and we all got the biggest laugh, except my sister... she was thrilled and was going to KEEP the thing on a shelf in her house!!! Here's pics of JANE WEST!

LOL.... these are so funny!!!!

I love the "slime" gift and puppy LMAO!!!! The doll gift LOL... you right, it's so ugly, only a "mother" could love it :eek: LMAO

Can you believe this doll was made for little girls to play with!!! :eek: Who in their right mind would design such a monstrosity~~~

LOL it's funny how that unattractive doll that to you was a joke, became a cherished gift.

I like that story!

These are cute funny stories thanks for sharing

The worst gift I ever gave.........hmmm not sure...worst one I ever got was a key ring holder from my sister in law....now I know that doesn't sound bad...it was a wooden key ring holder with fuzzy bears on it all hand made....now here is why it was the worst gift....two years previously, I had made it MYSELF for my mother in law as a birthday gift!!!!

That was pretty tacky to give you back a gift that you had given to your MIL!!

Did the sister-in-law know you had given it to the mother-in-law? If not, that's just too funny!!!! LOLOLOLOL

I received a gift last year that I know a couple had received as a wedding gift (we were at their shower), and my daughter received a gift from the same couple that we had given him for his birthday a few years ago. People need to be more careful recycling gifts. In our case, this couple is very special and we know their heart is in the right place, and they have no idea that we realize what they did. Life can be interesting and humorous at times. ;)

Yes she knew before she gave it to me. The sad part is when my MIL passed my FIL was going to give it to me. That same day she stole it from the house. She had it hanging in her house for the next year then took it down and wrapped it up and gave it to me for Christmas. Her husband flat out told us it was because she felt guilty everytime we came up there and seen it on her wall.:mad:
