Worst Christmas Present Ever Contest!

I won’t even ask if you’ve been naught or nice. Santa may require niceness for a present (the big guy and I have already had this discussion again this year!)

but not me!

So……………..don’t ya just love a contest?! Here’s how it works. Tell me your worst Christmas present. The person who got the worst Christmas present wins the BEST Christmas present! A DaVinci Gourmet Sugar Free Gift Pack!
How awesome is that?!

Angel Austin won the last DaVinci gift pack. Who wants to be next?

Now I am a HUGE DaVinci sugar free syrup fan! I add it to protein drinks, sugar free pudding and Greek yogurt. Greek yogurt is great for us but the flavors are much more limited with it than most light yogurts. It’s also very popular in coffee and tea. I don’t know how many times I have recommended it to newbies struggling with their new post-op diet.

So let’s hear all the horror stories of all the dumb ass presents you have gotten over the years!

Maybe it’s a Chia Pet?

Maybe it’s the Weener Kleener Soap

A creepy people present perhaps?

The dreaded fruitcake?

Or a surprise visit from your chronically happy cousins!

Don’t laugh! I’m telling them I moved and giving them one of YOUR addresses this year!

Now back to the contest. If you haven’t tried DaVinci sugar free (made with Splenda) syrups you must! The have about 50 different sugar free flavors.

  • German Chocolate Cake
  • Cookie Dough
  • B-52
  • Gingerbread
  • Praline
  • Cream de Menthe
  • Peanut Butter

Just to name a few.

And the wonderful people a DaVinci Gourmet have offered a really cool gift pack! The pack will include a DaVinci cup, a DaVinci apron

AND A BOX OF DAVINCI SUGAR FREE SYRUP!!!

So here is your chance to try it before you buy it.

Think back over those dysfunctional family Christmas gatherings. You know, the ones you later whined about in therapy………. and tell me about your crappy presents! Which one was the worst?

When I was 16 my folks give my sister money to go to the mall (she was 13) to buy me a gift on her own....BIG mistake....christmas morning comes and I get to open a bottle of white out...my dad was like, where's her real gift and my sister said...that's it..that's what i got her....oh were they upset...needless to say she still doesn't do the best with gifts LOL sometimes when we used to live together and money was tight, she would go into OUR cupboard and box up things that we've had for years such as bath stuff or face masks....then she'd get offended that I didn't 'appreciate' the though....ummm i BOUGHT those things!!!

Omg! White-out! So funny, but so sad! And the old face masks and stuff! That YOU bought?! Sis needs a talking to  (or better yet a beat down!).

I think I would return the favor and be equally creative with her gifts. Perhaps she would like a tube of K-Y since she's so tight she squeeks!

Cheap ass present!

I got one, I got one!

About six months after we got divorced, my ex-husband gave me a Christmas gift.  Which I thought was kinda odd and I did not get him anything.  What he got me was a book.

Now, back when we were still married, I had loaned a book to his mother.  She then lost it.  Or misplaced it or something.  She kept insisting she'd given it back to me but she hadn't.  I figured it was gone for good.  That happens sometimes when you loan people books.

So my ex gives me this present and I open it... and it's my book!  He says oh, he saw it at the bookstore and remembered I used to have it and lost it and thought he'd get it for me.  Only that was  lie.  It was my book.  The exact one I loaned to his mother.  I  knew because the back cover was creased in a certain way.  It was the exact same book.

What kind of present is that?

Please, please, please post it here as well.  We all deserve to see what gifts we can give to our least favorite people.  I, myself, am so adored that I've never gotten a crappy present unless you count the   my husband got to replace for our very first Christmas.

The can opener is funny after 36 years of marriage.  At only 7 months, I was hoping for something more romantic.  He now insists it was a joke.  And, yes, he has gotten better.  This year I get a puppy!

We're actually waiting until spring for better weather for outside training purposes. It's too cold to be taking them out for potty trips even in TN.  When we do get them, they'll be rescues.  Yep, I said them.  I just hope I can hold out that long.  Since my dog died last August, I have been having very serious fur withdrawal.  I tried to make friends with the dog next door, but he doesn't cotton to strangers very well.  I have yet to approach total strangers to ask for puppy cuddles, but it's been very hard not to.
