Oh, yes... not four Ziploc storage containers, not a half a dozen... but a 22 count, all in various size! All in a nifty box, that you can carry like a two-four. Bliss, eh?
That is a crap pressie.
I win this thread.
the end! thank you...

Re: the real meaning of xmas...
I got a pair of electric scissory things supposedly designed for cutting through that hard clear polycarbonate plastic that everything comes inside.
It's proved impossible to get the thing out of its hard clear polycarbonate packaging without use of the contents, so it's headed for the bin.
Or for hwp next Christmas.

Re: the real meaning of xmas...
I got a jigsaw not the cool guy kind where you can chop things up - oh no - but the 12 million pieces that all look the same and require an immense amount of patience type jigsaw.
Can't regift as it was a stocking filler and the person who bought it can't wait to see it finished
They will be waiting a while

Re: the real meaning of xmas...
An egg-shaped alarm clock that changes colour every time you touch it and displays in no apparently fixed order:
1. Time.
2. Date
3. Temperature (yes - C and F)
4. Alarm time.
5. Something else of a numerical value (probably my own personal death clock).
All together now: "A re-gifting we will go, a re-gifting we will go......."
It's my own fault however as apparently I didn't specify WHAT I actually wanted enough. As if I didn't say "Global domination" enough????

I got a vacuum cleaner... but it's not as bad as it sounds. Firstly OH was being really considerate and thoughtful as I found the old one too heavy to lug around. Secondly it's a Dyson (yay!).
