What’s the Worst Gift You’ve Given?

We’ve all done it– given a gift that we thought at the time was perfect only to find out that we were dead wrong.

The classical blunders are the husband giving the wife a toaster or some other appliance for the kitchen and ending up in the dog house.  In my family, we were assigning things to different siblings to get for other siblings and someone gave another one (I can’t really remember how it started) a decorative bottle filled with sand or jelly stuff.  That thing kept getting re-gifted every year!

What kinds of things have you gifted (or re-gifted!) that haven’t gone over that well and how did you overcome it?
