These two present are so bad that they've crossed the line into becoming good presents.

Got a box of family circle biscuits , nothing else was bad really .
All mine are excellent but went to GFs daughters to see grandson and her idiot semi estranged partner was proudly wearing his onesie. What has been seem cannot be unseen, I fear the therapy may be expensive. (Therapy for my traumatised mind not his warped taste).
What appeared to be about £30k turned out to be individually printed paper handkerchiefs 🙁

I kid you not...

Microwave slippers, Ayyyyyy!
Singlspeedstu, in the second pic .....
The ghost of Sasquatch is walking through your garden.
Ouch looking at the Firby, Money, single speed robe and does that include the hat >?
But at the moment the microwave slippers is stealing the Oscar

Micro Wave Slippers
The dressing gown is totally awesome!!
All good for me this year I'm afraid. Chocs, whisky, oil paints, hat and gloves, smellies, cycling shorts, awesome courier bag (thanks Neil).
How does Sudoku toilet paper sound??
Ideal for number two's I suppose 🙂
It appears I have been transported back to victorian times
A selection of cheese, nuts and dried fruit 😐
Every year beats the last one in terms of being underwhelmed
A Go Pro Hero 8O, I see these twunts around with these camera things lashed to their helmets and now I am going to have join their ranks to avoid hurting the wife's feelings unless I can ram it into a tree or drop it after a reasonable period.
What ski said.
HOW DO I MAKE THE LITTLE B@$74RDS GO TO SLEEP WITHOUT LOBBING THEM IN THE POND!!!!!!!!!
2 bottles of British wine. To be fair they were bought by non brits who probably don't realize how bad it is..
No pics but,the FIL bought my stepson a wallet,which looked quite good from the outside,but when he opened it up, it was obviously secondhand and previous owner had scribbled all over the inside with a Biro,it looked like a kid had coloured it in 😆
HOW DO I MAKE THE LITTLE B@$74RDS GO TO SLEEP WITHOUT LOBBING THEM IN THE POND!!!!!!!!!
Pull it's tail for 10 seconds or lie it on it's back for 15. The latter is probably better, pulling their tails make them go all cranky apparently. What I wasn't prepared for was my 6 year old monopolising my phone to feed and wash the damn thing.
My parents today, so nothing to add appart from diet attempt ruining chocolate 🙂
Out-laws on Friday, which means that the missus will have been asked for a list, which means double politeness so as not to offend anyone!

Put it on it's back.
My niece got a Furby and it doesn't move i.e. no dancing, ear movement or "beak" opening. It does squark quite a but though but I guess it's foo bar'd.
I think you'll find I "win"

(Not a gift in itself, it came in a set with some deodorant and shower gel)
My mum and dad got me some of that tissue paper money?! Ffs!
They did get me some wall mounts for my snowboard and 200 quid so not all bad.

Misread that and thought you might be coming into money in the new year.
Anyone... ?

Give how many awards British wine has won recently I'd drink it first to determine whether its good for quaffing or good for de-icer 🙄
I got Sudoku Toilet Paper - to good to flush, so it's in the recycling bin. Mrs W got a bottle stopper from Ann Summers - now in the wheelie bin. I know it's the thought that counts but I wish people wouldn't waste their money
She did buy them for 'us', bless her, but they were wrapped up and it is indeed the heaviest present ever at 9kg:

just take them boxed to charity shops rather than throw them out.
Plastic "bronze" birdbath. Yep.

Bird related I suppose:

I'm male and don't wear jewelry...... I'm hoping that this is some kind of horrible mix up.....
One of my presents from the MIL was a couple of travel plug adaptors and suitcase scales. I genuinely had to check the wrapping paper to check they were definitely for me.
🙄
Everyone thought I was joking when I said I was going to use the scales to weigh my bikes
Houns +1
I was planning on trying to flog mine on the classifieds
A couple of Winner fish sausages as part of a lovely food parcel fm my brother, no one wanted to try one strangely :-/
My great-aunt does quite well out of this. My mum got a plastic leopard print high heel, just the one, and was told it was a table decoration for displaying a bottle of wine. As one does...
MIL got me a Campervan Cookbook with amazing new recipes like -
* English breakfast
* Museli with yoghurt
* Chilli con carne
It is clear she did not look inside but ticked a present off her list of people to buy for.
My Gran seems to want to give me a worse present each year. Last year I got a pair of Lidl gloves but this year I got a small painting she'd done in a photo frame with the flip out stand bit broken off.
My mum got a plastic leopard print high heel, just the one, and was told it was a table decoration for displaying a bottle of wine. As one does...
Amazing!
🙂
I've done alright this year but my Nan had a friend who used to give her presents back.
Apparently this ladies birthday was in August and for years my Nan used to give her a present that she would receive back at Xmas.
Took her a couple of years to suss it out but, one birthday present she sent were some chocolates and she drew on the corner with felt tip. Yep, that Xmas they got sent back.
Mr Mule gave me a blu-ray player.
Under most circumstances this would be a brilliant present. Unfortunately it didn't work quite as well as it could have done, because I gave him a blu-ray player too.
Great minds eh! 😆
Waller, are we related?
Mrs Ps nephew gave her a plastic photo frame containing 3 pictures of the baby they had in September. One of them is even in focus... Just what we wanted!
A Jeremy Clarkson book of MsD's brother and sister-in-law.
MsD could hardly keep her face straight..
We got a cheque for a decent amount of money from my wife's nan. Only the amount in numbers didn't remotely match the written amount and the name was a mixture of my wife's and sister in laws, spelt completely wrong...
SIL gave me this! TBH its sort of funny!

Blue stratos aftershave off the wifes gran. Might come in handy for stripping paint or keeping the local cats out of my gardens!!!
£10 Primark gift card Yay!!
I got nice gifts!!! 😀
Oh you ungrateful lot !!
From my partner- a wrapped packet of angel delight..
Main and only present from my brother in law- 'a drumstick lolly'
To say I'm ecstatic really would be an understatement !!
Must have been the only one's left in the shop!!!

You seem to be confusing bad with truthfull. 🙂
👿
Mrs W got a bottle stopper from Ann Summers - now in the wheelie bin.
I'm not sure that was a "bottle stopper"

I thought the plastic "bronze" bird bath was the best until I got to the plastic leopard print high heel wine holder!
We didn't get anything awful, the nearest was a scarf off Mum that was "British Airways check-in desk" style, (as opposed to a nice stripey woolly one), totally not my style.
chunky.
If you don't want them slippers i'll have em.
I can wear them when i'm posting on here. 🙂
A robot patterned chefs hat too small. Will never be used and is even too crap to go in the kids dressing up box.
My 8 y.o. and I have concluded that next birthday/Christmas we have to provide the grandparents with a list!
And if that doesn't work the next step is buy the presents and send them the bill.
Do I win £5?

MsD's brother and sister in law bought me Jeremy Clarkson's 'The world according to' - i sat down today and dutifully tried to enjoy it.
I lasted 5 minutes, after a rant about letting people park where they like in order to ensure small town prosperity & a denial of climate change the book was hurled across the room!
The bloke really is an absolute tool.
jambourgie - MemberDo I win £5?
Only if you think you can honestly resell it at that price!
Just got a onesie here. From Primark with a Nordic pattern across it. It's actually quite tasteful 😳
