Oops that's a Halloween "present" but that line remains one of my favorites almost as good as "it depends".
Merry Christmas. Happy Festivus.

A Vendor that I previously did business with once sent me a gift card for a golf Shop and some golf balls and tees. I don't play golf.

We were just talking about this . . . back when my Father was in the military, we would go to the Mess for a Christmas Party. I was quite young, maybe 6 or 7 because I still believed in Santa. I remember Santa calling out my name and he actually thought I was going to sit on his lap - NOT! And then he gives me this wrapped gift. I'm excited and race back to our table with my parents and 6 older brothers and rip open the gift to discover a doll !!! I was soooo angry and just shouted "Who are you? Where is the real Santa because he would know I don't play with stupid dolls!!" I think my parents prayed for the ground to open up and swallow them. I remember I didn't let it go and kept it up that this guy was a fraud and where was my real present from Santa . . .
We took the doll home and then swiped my Father's razor blades and ball point pen. We drew a dotted line down her chest and performed open heart surgery on her!
I do remember we never went back to those Mess Hall parties. (we probably were never invited again but my Mother says she does remember everyone being amused more than upset!)

We joke about it every year - plastic gold placemats from my mother! They were terrible. They became the white elephant gift.

The first year Craig and I were dating. I selected well thought out gifts for him and he got me a set of two casserole dishes. Idiot!!! I just about clobbered him over the head with him. Never again!!!!!

A bunch of "exotic" bottles of olive oil--I'm allergic to olives. What's worse is the gift came from one of our daughters. But I regifted to a client who bought a home and she was thrilled beyond words.

Roger,
I can’t think of a bad one I’ve received but one year my wife thought it would be a great idea to give our daughter a typewriter. Didn’t go over well.

I always appreciate the sentiment, but it's always a bummer to receive a gift that you already have...not only can't you use it, but you have to return it!

It was something I received at a white elephant gift exchange from the girlfriend of a buddy of mine. It was x-rated and I'll leave it at that and open to your imagination

Good morning Roger. I think I will plead the fifth on this one. Better yet, I need to drink a fifth just to forget

Roger D. Mucci I'd say, no present is ever bad!
It really does not matter what we get, we get is more important.

I do not really remember since I do not keep negative memories....., I just set unliked/unwanted item aside and donate or pass on to someone else who might like it better.

Even the coal was good because it was given from the heart.
So they are all good.

Thart would be from a dirty Santa and I was thrilled that it was the worst piece of glass I ever saw.
