What happened to, "It's the thought that counts.". This not a big deal.
Maybe she forgot; maybe she wanted you to think she spent more. But, really.. it's your mom, not a friend or other relative. |
Oh, shut your piehole! Go get therapy for your childhood trauma inflicted by your trashy parents instead of trying to get attention here. So low class. |
Funny that we are all up in arms about outdated etiquette and traditions. Today, a lot of what we buy is from from online and it took minimal effort, a couple of clicks and it was dropped off at our doorstep 2 days later.. The prices are public information and it should be assumed that the gift was bought at a black friday or cyber monday sale or with a coupon or some other discount.And just drop it in a bag... we don't need to obscure it in a box that has been tediously wrapped. The recipient cares about the gift not the presentation. |

We leave the prices on for close family. It makes it easier to return to the store. Even without a receipt.
Also agree the title of this thread is stupid. Give us some abandonment issues to discuss. |
the thought of a gift should never be outdated. But, a quick click is still "a thought" of buying a gift. It's just so much easier. I don't know about others, but I spend a lot of time online, looking at page after page, to find the best fit gift. I don't just click on the first item on the "featured" list. |

Eh.
Who has a mother who leaves - the house mid-afternoon the 24th for a last minute grocery run and comes back the next day. Your dumb story is boring. |

No matter what was bought for my brother and his wife they always asked for the receipt.
If that ain't rude I don't know what is. |
