Unusual Christmas Gift Challenge!
by Donna in category News & Awards
Every year at Christmas time your loved ones sit down and ponder about the gifts they should buy. They may be practical, frivolous, or just good fun.
This year we challenge you to beat the most unusual Christmas pressie that was received in our office. Emer got a mini “Henry the Hoover” in our Kris Kindle. Is someone trying to tell you something about your desk there Emer?!
Do you think you can beat that? We have a €50 One-for-All voucher for the most unusual entry and 5 runner up gifts aswell. Leave a comment below to tell us the strangest gift you received this Christmas.
I got a USB Mouse on an exercise bike. When you plug it into your PC he starts to cycle & the faster you type the faster he cycles. He wears cute white shorts & a blue vest.
If that wasn’t weird enough I got this little keyring thing that has nine buttons on it & it’s supposed to mimic the sound of those protective bags with the little air bubbles in them that everyone loves popping but on every 100th press of a button it makes a different sound, like a dog barking or a horn beeping. Very WEIRD!!
i got my husband an agricultural muckspreader, the real deal, it hooks on to the back of a real tractor and flings “muck” ie animal droppings out the back, he was delighted!!!!
j are you anywhere near Kildare St Dublin…loads of s!*^e for your lucky husband to practice with
Well, guess what I got ‘THE LAUGHING DOG’. He is hilarious!!! He rolls around laughing, so much so that I am in stiches myself. Then he stops and when I am just about to pick him up to investigate he starts again and so do I!!!! Great for a laugh.
The Topskips Gift Voucher is valid for any sized skip in any area of the UK. Gift Ideas
I got the wandering chicken-its a little chicken that walks aroind to the tune of Camptown races music and when you go to lift him up by the neck, he squawks and screeches until you put him on the floor again. Hilarious actually but very weird!!!
i got a hair driver that hoovers the floors its a great all in one but very wierd looking
i could not believe wat i got a johova withness bible
Hi,
No word of a lie here but my wife just for fun was telling me 2 weeks up 2 xmass that she had the best surprise that i would ever get. Me all excited wondering what it was cudnt wait for xmass. Xmass finally came and i started opening the great big box with my name on it from the wife. Too my amazement there was nothing in it and guess what she said “Thats the best surprise you’ll ever get, Nothing ” ;(
But anyway i did get pressies after all that but nothing wierd and unusal
i got a celulite removal kit it has a gel and a pair of special leggings you wear to bed i dont even have celulite
I got a yellow naped amazon parrot this year for christmas i called her lucy she is eight months old
and now can say helo and she loves to dance.
My husbands friend gave me 50kg of rooster potatoes for Christmas, because if he drops in when passing I always feed him.
With a family of 5 adults and one child, plus an extra week at home due to snow, I am using the last of them today, and I am very grateful
A week before Christmas, my mother-in-law turned up with a beautifully-wrapped box for me. She was all delighted with herself, and almost demanded I open it in front of her. I opened the box eagerly, and found a very large stainless steel saucepan, with a small infant of prague stuffed into it. Mind you, it shouldn’t have surprised me, seeing as the last time she went on her travels, she presented everyone with duty-free goodies, and duly handed me a single BAR of dove soap.
A small stone man shoved in a burner…beat that!!!!!!!!
My best friend gave me this lovely cast iron horse figure. The thing is it has a big long handle comiing out of the top of the horses back….. We thought it was something to help take off your ridding boots but on testing it that was a big NO. There were various ideas from friends such as something to ite your real horse to, a poker holder, a regular orniment but it wouldn’t fit on any shelf, a potatoe masher….. We now use it as a door stop. I haven’t the heart to ask her what it really is.
