OK in honor of every christmas I have been on LIW My annual post. WORST GIFT YOU EVER GOT? REGIFTED?
Original post by june262004
My DH grandmother every year regifts. See the key to regifting is that you should regift to some one who doesnt know the person who gave it to you and never give it to the same person. I gave her a snowman thing the first year Mike and I were together. The next year I went to his sisters house and sitting with all the presents I saw the snowman. I was like did grandma give that to you she goes ya why? Im like cause I gave it to her last year. One year MSIL aunt gave grandma towels and the next year she gave her back the same ones. Everytime I watch old School I think of it.
BUT by FAR THE BEST IS THAT every year since we have been together she has given me a pocketbook. And not just any pocketbook one of her old used pocketbook. This last christmas was the BEST one I ever got. It was GOLD AND BRONZE and Quilted Leather. It had a chain with Leather going through. You know like from the 80's but it was all scratched and when I opened it up it was all ripped up inside. I know you guys are like AWWW its his grandmother leave her alone shes old but she's not. And they have LOTS of money (like Mikes sister and Brother each just got houses we cant have one cause we wont mover to Florida) And its not like she is old and forgetfull. It really hurts my feelings no thought goes into it all she does is go in her closet and pull things out that she doesnt want and wrap them up.
SO WHAT WAS YOUR WORST GIFT OR REGIFT?
P.S. I will be bumping this thread Dec. 26 fot this years christmas.

1- our limit is 100- silver earrings are like 20 bucks, even if they are really well nice. :
Maybe they will get you Tiffany silver earrings. That would be more than $20 and very nice!!
It's true! My favorite silver ones are the ones DH gave me from Tiffany's our first Christmas together--little Elsa Peretti hearts, but not the open ones. My boss also gave me the silver knot ones which are pretty, but a little heavy.

Worst gifts I ever got...
One year, my ex-BF gave me a box of drinking glasses... because, he said, 'None of your glasses match!' I never opened the box and to this day I still have my doubts about his sexual preference.
and
A size 3x G-string from my AUNT. I am a medium.

I have 2:
Last year, I gave our Best Man's girlfriend a $50 gift card to Victoria's Secret. She gave me a Nine West, Brown corduroy handbag that had orange inner lining.
A couple years ago, for our first XMAS as an engaged couple, we gave DH's cousin and his girlfriend a black sweater from Express Men and an ornament from Victoria's secret with perfume in it. They gave us a green fondue set. We both still lived at home with our parents, so how/when were 'we' going to use it? I have it here, in my kitchen, still in the box. I hope that someday I get the chance to give it back to them (they are married now, but I didn't have the guts to give it to her at her bridal shower, but I seriously thought about it!)
