What is the worse prize or present you have ever Won/Got

I can't recall the worst I received, but I do know the worst I gave. A few years ago we had a Kris Kindle in my old job. More than half the job was foreign folk, a great deal of whom were awfully tight fisted, and so after a vote the KK spend limit was agreed to be around the, I s'hit you not, five euro mark :pac: (and that was amongst those taking part- a few even regarded this price as too high and declined to take part at all).

Now, why anybody reckons five euro can buy anyone a remotely worthwhile present for an adult is anybody's guess, the limit should have been at least 15 to 20, but I picked up a five euro alarm clock for the German girl whose name I drew from the hat.

She comes in an hour late the next day complaining about how she slept in because her new alarm clock had already died :pac:


Slightly related, I remember seeing Noel Gallagher on (I think) Jonathan Ross, describing how his record label bought him a Rolls Royce and Liam a top end Rolex watch as a thank you for the success of their first album
