I have gotten a lot of horrible sweaters for christmas. I always want to return them. This site was kinda funny with the re-gifter 3000. I could use me one of them. www.kevinkringle.com. What are other bad christmas gifts?

Well, I don't know if any of you have an Albertson's market or the equivalent, but they do sell two products that make for fun gag gifts:
Whole Chicken in a Can (I'm not kidding, either)
;
and
Monkey-Picked Tea (there's some tea that grows in the trees somewhere that they use monkeys to pick it because the trees are so tall) .

Nope..Kroger is associated with Ralphs, King Soopers, City Market, Dillon's, Smith's, Fry's (yeah Fry's was the name of a grocery store long before it was the name of an electronics store), and half a dozen or more other stores..Albertsons is associated with Acme, Jewel-Osco, Osco Drug, SavOn, and Shaw's.Edgecrusher said:
My worst Christmas gift that turned out not to be SO bad was a sweater I got from my ex mother in law..it was this hideous olive-y green thing, & my first reaction was to ask my ex husband if his mom was mad at me..
Turns out that it was the most comfy sweater I'd ever owned, despite the awful color, so it wasn't so bad after all..I just didn't wear it in public. *g*

A year or so after I quit drinking heavily, my sister gave me a whisky flask that would fit in my pocket.

I got like five of those little bmx fingerbikes. Why? my redneck aunt thought that they were 'cool'.
as a kid, clothes, or anything that your parents would've bought for you anyways
some people seem to have the special talent of getting horrible crappy stuff...
special mention goes to an aunt and an ex bf who gave me a tower of post-its once. (after that he always gave me cds, which though cool, are kind of impersonal)
beautiful gifts i've recieved: hand-made doll, embroirdery, hand-made tshirt... stuff like that

I hate wiener dogs. Dreadful creatures.
Every year for 8 years I got a coat from my grandmother and I hated that. Last year she didnt give me one , then i moved to New mexico in the mountains and Im freezing my ass off because i dont have one. Go figure.
The crappiest gifts I've ever heard of:
Shampoo (seriously. someone told me they got shampoo as a gift, and it was not special shampoo, just store-shelf stuff.)
Kitty Litter ("I bought your cat 10 pounds of kitty litter!" - this actually started a fight)
Gasoline ("we filled the car up with a full tank of gas!")
Candles, not especially pretty, very stinky, large circular "sphere shape"
A gift card to a store you never shop at - total waste of $
Sweaters, always bulky and heavy -- that's what nicer coats are for, so you never have to be seen in these cotton creations
Underwear and Socks and "anything else you'd be bought normally" (one year the parents tried to "gift" me college textbooks, YUCK)
It's like, you want to say, but where's the rocket launcher, the plane tickets to Bali, and the mortgage payment? I mean what's up with the soap LOL?
The person who said "anything without feeling" is right though -- any gift is good if it's given with true and good intentions. If you're just trying to get out of gift giving though, an honest card is better then (any of the above).
