  I’ll bite. So DH initially got me nothing for our anniversary but ended up getting me wooden roses. Super sweet thought since he also gave me a beautiful metal rose while we were dating. These things though are garbage 😂 He felt so bad when they came because they were falling apart and looked just so bad haha. Some bad burn holes and the leaves are awful plastic.  I still have them but I don’t want them haha. Love his thought but I laugh and cringe when I see them.

  @stillcozy I have that with a few things where I just don't know what to do with them. I'm trying to not bring knick-knacks into my house.
  
  DH for my birthday or Christmas, got me a talking Despicable Me minion. One of those where you press a button in their hand for them to talk. I get it, I liked the movies and the minions but wtf do I do with this? It's currently wasting away under some blankets and pillows on a chair in our bedroom.
  
  What gets me is how DH claims/wants to be a minimalist yet I'm gifted unusable garbage.

  this is kindof a FFC as well, but whenever i get random bottles of wine/liquor (which is very often because DH and i are super into mixology and the like and we entertain a lot so i get tons of 'hostess gifts'), i pretty much always regift.  i'm very picky with wine and if i open a bottle its a commitment to drink it so i don't open things i'm sure i wont like 
  
  my grandmother is 93yrs old and has been giving me housewares for gifts.  things shes picked up over the years, but not like heirlooms or things with sentimental value.  like she goes to casinos and wins things and gives them to me.  i always feel so bad because i don't need them and they arent my taste but i cant say no to her because she means so well!!!! i keep them all in a storage closet in a spare bedroom.  i dont have the heart to get rid of them (or use them for that matter)
