    I got a very original present from my teenage son, a handmade voucher with 6 different jobs he would do for the coming few months, even though i think he regretted giving it as anytime he asked me what i wanted for birthday etc, i would say a job voucher he would decline

    A present I bought that person the previous year, and still in the same wrapping paper. They had opened an edge saw what was in it and decided to re gift it the next year but mistakenly gave it back to me.

    Screw all the presents - Christmas is all about the cliché, cheesy times with people who mean the most to you, doing whatever you want to (usually equates to falling asleep on the couch infront of crap tv) and eating more than could ever be good for you!


  • Registered Users Posts: 74 ✭✭Tuesday13

  • Registered Users Posts: 911 ✭✭✭engrish?

    Every year without exception no matter how organised he tries to be my OH always ends up purchasing my prezzie on Christmas Eve sporting a massive hangover from his works do.

    I normally end up with shi$e prezzies like the fat budda I got one year.

    Last year was the very best tho!! I wrote down the name of my favourite perfume to avoid another fat budda and he duly went to our local chemist sporting his usual Christmas hangover and handed the paper to the girl on the till. Unfortunately for him all they had left was the large 100ml bottle but taking pity on him the shop assistant advised him discreetly that he'd be able to get a smaller bottle in a shop 5 mins away. God love him he was unable to make it all the way to the next shop so I scored a very large bottle of my favourite perfume YAY! Still have more than half left:D
