Merry Little Cyclops Dec 2015 3:41pm, 30 Dec 2015 2,095 posts	Merry Little Cyclops I loved all my presents! I look forward to the tins of vaseline (for my poor beleaguered running feet) and random shower and moisturising stuff - it gets me through about half a year
FML Dec 2015 3:44pm, 30 Dec 2015 10,181 posts	FML Boss deodorant spray, not too bad you say I have an allergy to aluminium in deodorants so send me into a huge rash. My mother should know this!!!
Chritmas Carol Dec 2015 4:01pm, 30 Dec 2015 5,259 posts	Chritmas Carol Why do they do it FML? My sister's colour- changing wine glass (WTAF!)'gift' to OH has been openly regifted to DD1 who grinning has threatened to pass it on further !! Sister has excelled herself this year with tat, although DS1 is very happy with his (was supposed to be my) man-sized dog bowl as previously mentioned.
Fleecings of Comfort and Joy Dec 2015 4:04pm, 30 Dec 2015 25,641 posts	Fleecings of Comfort and Joy I haven't opened stuff yet from my ILs. I'm only opening them for the sake of this thread, otherwise it would be straight to the charity shop without even bothering to open them, so dire are my experiences

Fleecings of Comfort and Joy Dec 2015 4:32pm, 30 Dec 2015 25,644 posts	Fleecings of Comfort and Joy It might be because I have never once got a single thing from any of dh's family which I haven't wanted to throw out the window So it's a tiny hunch that these might be a bit shit too. A folding hat from MIL 2 years ago was a particular nadir, along with expired food
