Best and worst Xmas gifts.

Featured Replies

We all have them, 2 gifts you received this Christmas where you said "Thanks - just what I wanted."  The only difference between the 2 is you actually meant it with one of them.

 

I'll kick off with mine.

 

 

Best:  Wolfenstein -The New Order on XBox One - absolute murdering shootfest.. I can't think of a better way to relax :)

 

Wost: Lynx Boxset  - I think it's called "You stink and this is a subtle hint".   Thanks - A lot of effort went into this one.

 

 

Although I must say my mother in law got me one of these.

It's a ball pen, with a ruler, a mobile phone holder, touch screen stylus and twin headed screwdriver in one. Novel I know - Used so many times to open the battery compartments on my sons toys this Xmas.

 

best snooper db8500 for my truck satnav with tv!.......large 7 inch screen

worst slippers..........3 sizes to big wtf

Worst, last year a boxed set of  "Only Fools and Horses" I must have seen the whole series dozens of times, yep I like it but when it's on Virgin Media every day over the last 20 years (1pm again today) it gets a little tiring.

 

Best gift, just get me vouchers, which they have done this year.

Worst present I had a couple of years ago was a bottle of wine.

Or at least I thought it was until I opened the box and discovered it was a bl00dy candle shaped as a bottle of wine......grrrrrrrr......I hate candles!!!!

I got one of those multi tool things too!

Didn't spot it had the stylus and screwdriver inside. Thought it was just a pen, ruler and bottle opener :D

Hadn't realised that the bottle opener is actually a phone holder. Suppose I should have read the instructions!

Now that I have read the instructions its a bottle opener/mobile phone stand :clap:

My worst was socks. First time ever I've been bought socks for crimbo !  Best, my son's bought me a ticket for the Le Mans 24 hour. Ok he's bought himself one to, but I was made up !!

Best - Drift Ghost S HD camera. And a variety of mounts. 

 

Worst - A 50% share in a book about home renovations....

 

Edit...                                                      ^^^^^^^

Doesn't it suck when you get a gift that's for both of you. It's cheap and lazy IMO.

Best: £100

 

Worst: well there's 4 in joint last place here: Lynx peace box set, another Lynx peace box set, 2 cans of Lynx, soap on a rope.

 

Seriously, I have 18 cans of Lynx in my wardrobe now thanks to this crap every Christmas and birthday. I work on a farm so don't bother with it during the week so it gets used only 52 times a year. I'm going to have to start giving it away. If only I could find some friends for Christmas.  :think:

I'll give you a £ a tin for any Africa Lynx you have in stock. 

Best - an hour in a flight simulator

Worst - a mug tree.

Best: Mountain Equipment Down Jacket

Worst: I dont have one...If someone is good enough to give me a gift. That will do for me

I'll give you a £ a tin for any Africa Lynx you have in stock. 

Sorry, but I only have 1 can of that in stock and that's about empty.

Cans I have in stock that are still full:

 

Apollo X2 1 new style can 1 old style.

Recover X2

Attract

Exite X3

Excite dry X2

Peace X2

 

Shower gel:

 

Rise X2

Twist X2

Apollo X2

Peace X2

Dark temptation.

Best gift.. New nickelback album

Worst.. From my father in law. A model skoda octavia. I didnt want to mention that 1: it wasnt a VRS model and 2: its a mk2 lol

Best - Hubsan quadcopter drone

 

Worst - nothing really, always thankful for any gift

Best - a smart Barbour duffel bag for the gym/jujitsu/shooting/weekend trips.

Worst - a bottle of **** shower gel, I'm happy even with that though, this time of year usually replenishes my deodorant (don't often wear it) and shower gel supplies, I rarely have to buy any. If only people did the same for the Grey Goose supplies.

Lynx is rotten. Goes straight in the bin

Decent anti-perspirant for the oxsters (sure / rightguard) then aftershave what else is needed?
