    NOTHING... after I bought him a new cellphone and a suit.

    well, not truly "nothing" as the day before x-mas, i was looking at a $15 sweater @ wallie world.... i went to buy it and he grabbed it out of my hands, paid for it, then said, "Merry xmas" (he really said x-mas, not Christmas). but that was all I technically got... winner me

    Any cleaning supplies or gadget
    A camera (only because I wanted to purchse one for myself and he talked me out of it)
    An elliptical (see above, AND there is no romance in workout stuff)

    I got an elliptical for my past birthday and i love it...
    Although, it was funny to see him under the family fire when he said that he bought me fitness equiptment as a gift over the dinner table at a gathering. I swear seven women had their chin drop to the table.

    I'm not helping spread the evil of Christmas sweaters.

    But in reality, I don't know where you'd get it.

    Oddly, I LOVE my Kitchen Aid (mother's day), Toaster Oven (birthday), Lodge Cast Iron Frying Pans (birthday), Lodge Cast Iron Dutch Oven (wedding).... Hubby got a new Crockpot (birthday), Pasta Pot (Christmas) and we bought a set of Pots & Pans for Christmas for each other. LOL

    To each his own -- but, why the hatred for the kitchen items? Must be in homes where someone is expected to do the cooking. In my house we love the cooking!

    The worst gift I can think of would be a surprise pet of any kind. Never happened to me, because I am 100% vocal and up front about it. No - No - No. Pets are not something we give unexpectedly. We talk about it as a family and decide together.

    When my husband and I had our first Christmas together (before we were married), I weighed 120 lbs and was a size 10. He managed to pick out some nice gifts, but was lost when it came to getting my stocking stuffers, so he called my sister and asked her what typically got put into stockings. She mentioned candy, toothbrushes, toothpaste, underwear, etc.

    So yeah. He got me underwear. Size 10 underwear. He tried! He just had no clue how women's underwear is sized.

    The worst gift? An IOU for something that never materialised.

    I would be stoked if I got a stand mixer and a new food scale for Christmas.

    With that said the BEST present I got for Christmas was a S&W .38 special.

    While I detest traditional Chrostmas sweaters....I love colorful and eclectic and would so wear this! Probably in April or May.

    My husband always says he going to get me one of those 5lb candy bars, which would sit and tempt me to eat it all.

    I don't think I've ever had a "worst gift" because I appreciate the time, money and though put into every gift I get, regardless of if it was dissapointing or not.

    I'm glad I'm not exchanging gifts this year and doing family activities instead for the holidays. No "bad" gifts or gifts to be jealous of that others got that were better than the ones I gave, just real Christmas values and fun without the consumerism bull****.

    ETA: Although some of the "gifts" listed here are quite terrible and I wouldn't want :laugh:
