Have you ever received a truly bad gift?

When I married my kids’ dad, his grandmother gifted us with a term life insurance policy…..with her as a beneficiary.

One time my grandmother knitted me some socks, with a matching scarf, and boxers. I was 11 at the time

A "friend" gave me a 25% off coupon for his business. On top of that nonsense, it expired in just over a week AND it was a coupon that he sent out to the general public in one of those coupon mailers you get as junk mail.

My nephew gave me a gift card with nothing on it.

I got a VHS tape with Saturday morning cartoons recorded from an Aunt and Uncle. Also received Hit Stix three years in a row from another Aunt and Uncle. I always thought that they must have bought them in bulk one year and kept handing them out.

When I was still living at home, Dad would buy me tools to replace his that were either lost or broken (some of them by me so I'm not saying I didn't deserve it on occasion).
The "User Agreement" on these "gifts" was "This house is not a democracy" & "Life isn't fair"... As such, I was not allowed to retain ownership of said tools once reaching adulthood.

I got an A&M dinner tray set for Christmas and I went to LSU.

My godfather always spoiled me with gifts since he didn't have any kids and made good money. One year for Christmas, I got a Lite Brite that wasn't even in a box and had the name Eric written on the bottom of it. That's not my name. It also had a 25 cent sticker on it.
Years later, I found out he lost his job so he couldn't really afford to get me a gift.

I don’t have any time that’s my own. I have no time for hobbies or anything. I am either working or I’m being a parent or husband. Not healthy but that’s reality for me right now.
Someone gave me a very advanced model car that looks cool, but I have no idea when I will be able to build it.

As a wedding gift, my senile great aunt gave us an open package of plastic appetizer forks.

Do some consulting with a company based in Idaho Falls, ID and the owner of that company has a HUGE potato plantation. Every October or so I get a 50 pound box of potatoes from them. That is great, who doesn't like a good potato??? Trouble is that of the 50 pounds 45 will be seriously rotten by the time they get to me...I assume they have been in a warehouse since last season but it may be that they just lose about 90% every year, who knows, but the stench is overwhelming and I have to deal with 45 pounds of seriously rotten potatoes!

My spouse is notorious for bad gifts. Each gift she gives me comes with a “ok, let me explain…” where she tells me she knows I don’t want it but why she thought it would be a good gift.
But have I ever received a bad gift? Nah. I appreciate all gifts, even the ones that are terrible.

My older brother is the definition of black sheep. My mom doesn’t use much common sense a lot of times. He got a kite from my parents for his 16th birthday. My dad didn’t know that’s what she got him, because even he looked at her like “wtf is the matter with you?”
He got a car like a week later, which was the plan all along. But man, that’s gotta fricking sting.

I gave everyone in my family bundles scratch off lottery tickets once. I scanned them before hand to make sure there weren’t any big winners.
