The Bad Gifts of 2005

[caseysmom]

My daughters friends family always leave the price tags on gifts....and a few times you could tell they had torn off the red clearance tag. Is that tacky or what? So they want us to think they paid more or what...and these folks have money, its just really tacky to me. I always hide the price...how does everyone else feel about leaving the price on gifts?

I take off the tags too. I hate when I get something with the price on it. I don't want anyone to know how much I spent on them. I'm not cheap either, to me it's the right thing to do and take off the price.

I didn't get any "bad" gifts. I liked everything I got.

I never look at the tags cause I don't really care. Put when it comes between my sister & I, we always tell eachother how much we spend so we get equal gifts (so the other doesn't feel like crap if they buy the other something far cheaper.)

For about 5yrs I never spent a dime on my sister, as she was a HORRIBLE human being at the time & I wanted nothing to do with her until she cleaned up. Well she was clean & well behaved for a whole year & there was a HUGE sale at my store. The manager knew I was excited about getting stuff for my sister cause she had worked SO hard to clean up.. so my manager put the managers sale ontop of all the sale stuff. I spent $20.00 & have 4 boxes full of bath stuff (my sister LOVES that stuff) On the receipt it said I saved $100.00 on the origional sale price!!! I also wasn't charged any tax!!! My sister has always looked up to me & all the stuff ment so much to her, shes been clean for several years & calls me all the time now, esp. when shes upset.

I don't think any of the gifts I got were horrible. I got a thing of construction paper, markers, 36 pack of batteries, and a few of my relatives even gave me dog toys/treats because they weren't sure what to get me. I'm sure those are gifts people would consider "bad" but they're probably some of my favorite gifts!
