    I can't think of anything bad as an adult...I used to hate it when I was a kid and got clothes...especially underwear. I always knew by the box that is was clothes and just opened those first to get at the good stuff.

    An underwear and training bra set that I opened in front of everyone. I was mortified. My mom was like "What....??? What's wrong with that???" Really ... Hmmm, ok!

    My ex was always terrible at shopping for me. Last year he bought me a vacuum cleaner and some other cleaning product. Not much of a gift now since it's with him at his house

    My ex knew better than to take the vacuum cleaner when he moved out.

    I got a Nike sweatshirt that I loved but one of my friends made fun of the colors. Low and behold my very wealthy brother had given me a women’s sweatshirt he found on clearance at tjmaxx.

    The present I still remember from many years ago is a pair of lime green sparkly socks given to me by my now wife's elderly grandma.
    I profusely poured out my thanks and gratitude.
    Her son ( wife's uncle ) who still lived with his mother, expressed his amusement.
    Guess what he got as a Christmas present from me the following year?!
    I wasn't there when he opened it but it still amuses now thinking of what their reactions were.
    Needless to say my wife wasn't overly impressed with my generosity.

    At some point in my childhood, someone decided I liked porcelain dolls. (Which I don't at all) So every Christmas I had to open at least 3 and pretend to be happy about it.

    My mother tried to pawn them off on my daughter last year and I told her she could throw them out and confessed I never liked them. She still kept them :expressionless:

    I got a summer sausage, not with cheese and crackers like the one above...just a summer sausage

    I'll consider myself super lucky that I got the whole set then! :D

    I was home from my second year in college. My grandma gave me a small jewelry box. Inside was a clear rain poncho that was folded up into its own little packet you could fit into your purse. I lived in California where it never rained.
