[quote=Anonymous][quote]These are not really gifts with strings, OP. A gift with strings is a "gift" that another party holds over you, and uses to their advantage in subsequent interactions. These are gifts that require some work on your part - installation, shopping, etc. And questions about how you like the gift later on is not a "string." You are bitching that your family is very generous, but that sometimes you don't like the gift (the gift card), some of the gifts are "some assembly required" (the cabinets) or that the timing of the gift is inconvenient. I find that to be a little ridiculous, and you to be a bit of an ingrate. [/quote] +1 [/quote]
