My mum’s ex (not my dad, I hasten to add ) once bought her car mats for Christmas
My husband once bought me a fascia for my car stereo thankfully not for christmas or anything, he just wanted to treat me looking back, I don't know why I married himMy mum’s ex (not my dad, I hasten to add ) once bought her car mats for Christmas
My MIL buys the kids one every year. They've never read them they just go onto the local free page. Such a waste of money.Just on Amazon and I saw the dreaded Guiness Book of Records in the 3rd best selling book position.
Thank god I was never bought one of them but every year my boyfriend would be bought a copy with a bloody Beano and sometimes a Riley’s believe it or not by his auntie and every year they would go unread and be stuck on a shelf. One year I cracked and took about 3/4 years worth to the charity shop. They’re such a waste of a tree being cut down, how many guiness world records have really been broken in the past year that you need an entire book for them? She saw it as a cute tradition of buying him them, they were just tat clogging up the flat
Hey now, I'll have you know that the metallic green one from I think 2008 or 2009 worked its ass off as my go-to 'hard surface' for several years (as I couldn't fit a desk in my room).Just on Amazon and I saw the dreaded Guiness Book of Records in the 3rd best selling book position.

My 16 year old would think his Christmas was ruined if he didn't get his Guinness and Ripleys books. He reads the print off themMy MIL buys the kids one every year. They've never read them they just go onto the local free page. Such a waste of money.
He is the first person I’ve heard who does hahaMy 16 year old would think his Christmas was ruined if he didn't get his Guinness and Ripleys books. He reads the print off them

Every year I’d hope no more, but every year my bf would open the bag and there it was along with a trolley dash of shite from home bargains. If Covid offered any benefit it’s that he didn’t have to see family for 2 Xmas so they learnt to just send money to him - although he’s nearly 30 so he’s just confused why an auntie still sends him money
I am the same! I used to love reading those books as a kidHe's like a sponge and just soaks all that sory of information up. He's a nightmare to play any trivia game with as he's full of random bits of knowledge that normal people would never know
I wouldn't like that either! Has he improved a lot with his presents?My husband used to buy me Boots No7 gift sets. Metallic lipsticks and nail polishes - stuff a 14 year old may mess about with, but I was in my late 30s. I think he stopped buying them when they became discontinued. The fact that they went straight in the charity shop bag didn’t seem to register.
Same with my 11yo granddaughter she gets it every year off her other nan and loves them.My 16 year old would think his Christmas was ruined if he didn't get his Guinness and Ripleys books. He reads the print off them
