Re-gifting of your own favor, she probably has so many favors she does not remember who gave what.
I am sure there definitely is a person for each item, but just not us
Is this what happens to wedding favors?? they become gifts for other people??

I am peeing my pants with this thread. I have to go digging and see what obnoxious looking things I can find at home. I have an unrelated (not received for wedding) gift I want to add. It's this incredibly tacky clock. In the lower half, it has a clock with Jesus's face on the front and right above it, it has these fiber optic looking flowers that spin on the hour. You couldn't find something more tacky outside of a velvet Elvis painting. My ex fiance's mother gave it to me one Christmas. All I could say was 'Thanks?!?' I have to scan a picture of this thing!!

Shamee, that Jesus clock is a must see. I can't wait to see it. I see religious gifts are very big on the list. Jen one tip for you when you open a non-registry gift you should go awwww you shouldn't have and then say I mean that...ok ok just jokes
I have a pix of myself of when I opened a gift that was not on my registry, and I had to think did I register for this and not remember
I thought I had lost my mind. I had to re-check my registry. The funny thing is, it was from Macys but not something I had added to my registry

I will open the gift and say:'Oh wow!! You shouldn't have, I love it!!'
How does that sound Shamma?
Now I hope I get one of these gifts just to laugh that day (to myself of course) and then come home & post it!

This is just too funny. I'll have to try to scan a picture of my gift so you can see Roland and I with our devil eyes and the 'marriagge' poem.

Christy let's give it to the lowest bidder. Maybe you should ask her for the receipt

shamma I would love to, but FMIL thinks it was the greatest gift ever. She didnt watch me open one thing at my shower, but when that gift was in my lap she ran up to me and unwrapped it for me!
