Mom once got me one of these:

Re: Worst... Xmas Presents... Ever
A $50 check from my mother. Its what I got this year. You would think that after 37 years she care enough to try to get me a gift. Very disappointing.
PS: I bought her a 5MP Digital Camera & photo printer. I'm a good son [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] TT [img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] |

Re: Worst... Xmas Presents... Ever
She probably just doesn't see it that way. She may figure you'd know better than her what you want.
Heck, you may even be a pain in the ass who is hard to please and not worth the effort when it comes to gift-giving LOL. Maybe you're too critical. |

I know she doesn't have a lot of money, thats not the issue. But if she is going to spend $50 (which is totally cool with me) then she should at least choose something for me rather than give me a check every year. Its lame, its todays economy that buys me a good lunch (not enough for a gourmet NYC dinner), so I'd rather get a gift that came from her heart. |

Re: Worst... Xmas Presents... Ever
I think when I was 10 my grandma sent me a bunch of Rainbow Brite coloring books. Everyone in my (immediate) family thought that was a pretty crappy gift.

If I dont give them an actual list of stuff that I want they just cut me a check for 5 or 6 hundo. Its cool, but takes the fun out of it. |
