Strangest Christmas Gift You've Received?

[base428 1]

One particular relative of mine loves to give me the strangest Christmas gifts known to man. Here's what I received....

2004 - One two hour blank VHS videotape, a Craftsman folding chair, and a 32 ounce can of lemon sorbet (an ice cream topping).

2003 - A box of Old Spice handy wipes.

2002 - Another blank VHS videotape (although this one came from the dollar store), a coffee cup full of Hershey's kisses.

What's the strangest, crappiest, or worst Christmas gift you received?

I got a banana hanger once. It was kind of funny though.

My mom wrapped me a small box with nothing but a black plastic hairy spider in it. Scared the shit out of me when I opened it and I accidently flung it on me.

I got a dollar store bag sealer from my aunt once. She didn't even thrown in batteries. Talk about cheap and thoughtless. I don't talk to her anymore.

A calender that had pictures of whales from my aunt and uncle....don't ask.

Actually, this is something my mom "gave" to my dad. Early one November morning, she looked out the window as he was pulling out of the garage on his way to work. He hit something, damaged the back bumper and some small pieces broke off. He kept going. She collected the pieces that came off the car. Later, he acted like he had just seen the dent / damage to the bumper and tried to blame her. She denied it, of course, but didn't tell him she saw him hit the garage. (So then he claimed it must have been a random hit and run in a parking lot or something!) She took those little pieces, put them in a box, wrapped it in Christmas paper, put his name on the package and set it out a few weeks before Christmas. He would walk by that box and pick it up and shake it every single day wondering what was inside. It was the very first gift he opened on Christmas too! The look on his face was priceless!

I once received an Advent Calendar from an aunt wrapped and everything

I don't think I'll be able to look at an advent calendar without thinking of Bad Santa anymore!

I used to get two cans of smoked oysters in my stocking every year. I no longer get a stocking, but I still get the oysters.

my mom (when I was a senior in high school) got me a oney bat and grinder (pot smoking device and stash keeper) and papers...

she had no idea that it was for maryjane... I collected alien stuff back then and the papers had aliens on them. she thought it was a cigarette rolling machine... should have seen my face when I opened it...then hers when I told her what it was...
