[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For Christmas my one year my MIL gave us a professionally done 8x10 photo of her and her new husband.  It was beautifully wrapped and when we opened it my husband and I had the hardest time stifling our laughter.

For about a year it was shoved in a bookshelf and I'd pull it out before she visited. Finally my husband outed me and it's been on the bookcase permanently since then. [/quote]

Wow. That's a good one. [/quote]

I think I can beat that. My MIL once gave me about a dozen of used hair scrunchies saying that since my hair is long and she cuts hers short now she thought I could use these.
I had to restrain myself from asking if she had any unused tampons since she's in menopause and I'm not.

As for the most thoughtful gift, when I was a college student and interned in NYC, I sublet a real dump of an apartment for the summer, with no AC in it. It was pure hell on Earth. I was also poor as a church mouse, so my options were limited. I complained to my then-boyfriend about it on the phone, and two days later, when I returned from work, there was a delivery notice stuck on my door. My boyfriend sent me a big brand new fan.

It's been twenty plus years, but I still remember that huge white thing. Oh, to be young again! :lol: [/quote]
