We all get shit Christmas presents, mostly as a kid, but often you’ll get them from your work-mates as Secret Santa presents, your parents will still give you them even in your thirties and even when you’ve been married 10 years your other half will still get you crap Christmas presents!
So here’s what I think are the best shit Christmas Present ideas:
Nothing? I’m not sure if this is crap or not, or just hilarious? Unfortunately it doesn’t cost nothing, but only £3.49. The idea is that if people ask for “nothing” for Christmas, you can get them exactly that. You can get it from Iwoot and if you use the voucher code “AOFF5″ you can save 5% off all of their products!
Socks? Why socks. I know it may be cold at Christmas but socks? Perhaps they think that you’ll always need them and its pretty difficult to get the wrong sizes, but its not really imaginative is it?
If you really do want to buy someone a pair of socks this Christmas then why not try Sock Shop? Oh, and John Lewis have a Travel Bag Gift Set with 8 socks in it! wooooh!
And who invented bath salts? What’s wrong with bubble bath anyway? Why would anyone pay £14 from Beauty Expert for some Lavender Bath Salts? Its’ madness! The tin may be nice but what else does it do?
And if you really want to offend then get this Lavender Bathroom Gift Set for just 44p from Home and Garden Gifts!
Does your other half own a Ferrari or any racing car for that? If not then don’t get them driving gloves as they’re only “suitable” for old people in their 1985 Rover. If they fit that category then you can get them from The Original Gift Company for £14.95. If not get them a driving experience from Buy A Gift instead.
Are people still buying Lava Lamps? If so why do they waste a tenner on a plastic “home burner”? If you really wanted to get one for a “friend” then why not try Dixons or Hawkin’s Bazaar (voucher code “Christmas08″ for £5 off £30 or more) and if you’re really tight Yellow Moon do them for £4.99. If you use the voucher code “YAFG08″ you can get 10% off your order over £50 (excl. P&P) until 31st December 2008.
An an Antique Finish Dog Ornamental Garden tap for £20.95 why? That has to be a crap Christmas gift if I’ve ever seen one!
