It had to be the Elizabeth Arden perfume gift set. I am really picky about perfume. I think it's going on ebay.

Two shirts from my ILs...DH always tells them NOT to buy me clothes, but they insist on doing it anyway. Hopefully, I'll be able to figure out where they were bought and then I can return them. Chat Icon Chat Icon

If I can't return stuff, I usually see if there is someone I know that might want it or can use it. Otherwise I donate it to some organization. My friend's mom takes all the perfume and lotions we don't want to some charity tag sale. I would consider EBay if I had the energy to do it.

My least favorite gift was a burgundy turtle neck. First of all it was huge second of all I looked like a giant Tootsie Roll Pop.

I really do love all my gifts this year but DH got me two sweaters that I like, but am not crazy about the colors. So, I'm considering, for the first time in my life, actually exchanging/returning a gift! Chat Icon

Not really least favorite - but least needed - a 25 piece tupperware set - when I have under my cabinet a 1000 piece already - they are popping out of everywhere in my kitchen. I put the box unopened in the basement for now, and when the time comes when covers are missing, I will throw out my old set !

Re: What was your least favorite gift this year? And what do you do with them?

the neckwarmer my coworker gave me. It looks like a scarf, but is only the size of your neck with a little button. Weird.
Also, the antique frame my boss gave me. It's blue pearl and black and doesn't match anything I have in my house. And it's not even a nice design.
My other boss bought me a silk robe (didn't I get enough at my shower??? Chat Icon ) and a flanel robe without any tags. She said she got them at Neiman Marcus, yeah right.

ETS: going to donate donate and donate. My mom works at a senior center and they look for Bingo prizes to be donated, so they get all my gifts or slightly used items. Chat Icon

these blue slippers
first, I don't wear slippers
second, if I DID wear slippers it wouldn't be these grandma specials

I left them at my mom's house- hid them in her closet.

my brother meant well, but he bought me a 100.00 GC for a paprika facial. I am allergic to a ton of different things and spend a pretty penny on Proactiv every few months. I think I would enjoy it, but I am so scared it will irritate my skin. I think I am going to call them and see if I can exchange it for a different service and not tell.

I got a pair of vibrating slippers from my kris kringle at work. They're big and really pink, but I'm keeping them because the vibrating feels great on my feet

I have very very sensitive skin and I got my first facial last month. My face was very red and irritated but it did go away the next day. But honestly I didn't see any difference in my skin so to me it's not worth the $$$. I'd rather get a massage.

Re: What was your least favorite gift this year? And what do you do with them?

My MIL sent me a wrap - kind of like a pashmina thing, but it's not from a department store......she sent it in the plastic bag that it was shipped to her in, and the bag says, "made in China". Classy! It also has a furry trim. I'll probably use it someday, but I was annoyed that somebody who just bought themselves a brand-new Jaguar could buy her only daughter-in-law such a cheapie gift, and leave it in the plastic bag!

I didn't really have a least favorite gift- I loved everything- a shirt I got did not fit and they did not have my correct size, so I returned it.
