Okay everybody...it's that time of year. Pick out something you have received in the past as a gift and absolutely despise. Take a picture of it. Describe a little bit about the gift and any other fun stories surrounding it...for example:



This pretty piece of crap was actually given to my wife and I as a wedding present. Yes, you read me...not kidding. My wife's great-Aunt was thoughtful enough to get us this limited edition (Note: 10,000 pieces is not limited) "Barbie as Rapunzel" clock. It is so beautiful, we have decided to keep it in the closet since the day we got it. Besides, it's going to become a collectible someday and be worth eleventy billion® pesos. Oh yeah, it was purchased exclusively at Wal-Mart™.

(Please do not PM me with offers for this prize, it's not for sale!)
