Sometimes men suck at Christmas...

I cannot believe how big of a fail his gifts were this year...

cheap christmas tupperware (our apartment's kitchen is too small for more stuff), a toaster, a quilt pattern (just the pattern, not even the material to make it or anything, and I don't quilt), and a polo short sleeved sweater (we live in WI, all sweaters should be long sleeved!)..

How about we all laugh at the crappy gifts we've gotten from our men?

  • DH got me a cookbook. I don't enjoy cooking, and we already have a big cookbook on the shelf. He also got me a figurine from plants vs zombies. I like the game, but what am I going to do with it? It'll probably 'accidentally' end up where DS can claim it.

  • I didn't get anything.Sad

    But I really can't be mad since I went out and bought a hair dryer last month.  And I know that sounds funny, but I really needed a new one and it's actually salon quality.  So it wasn't cheap.  Plus, for once my hair feels and looks like I just came from a salon after I dry it!

    That being said, I fully intend to take advantage of the after holidays sales and get some new sweaters and a new skirt for work.

  • I know things have been kid of rough since the baby and all ... so got my hubby a calvein klein winter coat..200$.... I got a picture frame.Super Angry I tried to grin and bear it ... but all I would like a little more thought process....just a little more consideration... is that too much to ask
  • DH got me two little pendants with handprints on them, one with a tiny "pearl" and one with a tiny garnet - our two boys' birthstones. In theory it sounds nice, and that's what he thought when he ordered them on Amazon...

    ... only they look like they came out of a gumball machine. and they are 100% not my style AT ALL. He even said he knows they look tacky but he couldn't find what I had described before (a bezel set garnet that can sit next to my black pearl on a chain). anyway he didn't totally fail as that was only part of his gift to me, but they were pretty heinous. And I wore them on Christmas just because and the "pearl" already fell out! I have no idea where it is. I think we'll send them back to Amazon. yikes.
