my favourite so far is from my sister...she bought me a gift online, but it didn't arrive on time, so she presented me with the gift receipt...the order was put through on December 25th, 9:36am...she handed me the receipt at 11am that day...sheer utter laziness and zero thought...this has resulted in teasing for all eternity...i have not received a gift since...
I got that once from a cousin ... hahaha, the gift receipt for something ordered at like 11:50pm on the 24th.
So next year, I gift wrapped a couple of BBQ charcoal brickets and included the gift receipt from Rona. I remember when we did that gift opening that year everyone in the room was laughing

Herpes..
When I was a kid I remember opening a Fire extinguisher on Christmas morning from my dad... I was confused and then he said I opened the wrong present and that was for my mom. Gotta love when an alcoholic father decides to pick out his own gifts.
I also got a piece of wood from my mom one year, I opened it before reading the card and it was actually supposed to be one of those sentimental gifts where the card says keep this gift and don't open it..etc I forget exactly although I still have the piece of wood and card at home.

That's true for birthdays as well. Now that I am grown up, I don't mind clothes....
My sister gives me crap every year and I get her good (IMO) gifts.
GF and I were just saying we have to get her something gawd awful this year to see if she catches on...
Last year she got me some Avant-garde chess set made of green and orange plastic pieces on a clear board...
Year before it was a fondu set. <--- Not cool
These are compared to a Navi and a nice digital picture frame from me.
This year she gets the singing fish.
BTW: What's comparable or worse?

see I'd like that. I love making puzzels
It looks like sisters give the worst gifts. Mine puts absolutely no thought into it, and gets whatever she can when it happens to be convenient for her. She has no idea of any of my interests or hobbies, or my life generally, even though I see her several times a week. So she gets me the kinds of things you would get someone you don't even know: usually it's a pair of gloves and a hat. And she obviously forgets that she got me gloves and a hat LAST year.
Now I just take the gift back to whatever store, return it, and use the cash to buy the exact same thing for her for the next occasion (i.e. birthday).
This year, she got me a hat and gloves for my birthday a few months ago. I exchanged them for a hat and gloves for her xmas present. Maybe she'll get the hint. Probably not.

Got an easy bake oven for christmas when I was like 13 years old. And I'm a guy....
I couldn't even fake being happy about that one...
That was the only gift I got that year. Ends up the person who bought it had lost their job recently so they simply had no money to spend. I felt really bad years later when I found out that was the situation.

A ring from one of those penny vending machines in grade 1 or 2. The class had a gift exchange and this kid that pulled my name probably couldn't afford enough food, nevermind something under $10 for a gift exchange. We'd just picked out this awesome present, and I did not understand at the time at all. Makes me feel crappy now that I do understand.
My brother received a Roy Orbison tape from my dad 30 years ago. From then on, whenever you buy someone, something that you wanted, it's been called a Roy Orbison present in our family.

christmas isnt about getting gifts, you bunch of weenies.
is about giving.
I once did christmas shopping at Hasty Market, cause all the stores were closed. I bought my best friend a carton of smokes, a jar of peanut butter, a Kit Kat, and a lighter. Gift wrapped in paper towel and napkins.
