My uncle is schizophrenic and always bought me weird gifts growing up. When I was 8 yrs old he bought me a bottle of diet pills that were specifically made for cows!!! Like the bottle literally said “ not for human consumption” 😂 One year he bought me a case of 100 kiwis. It was always comical what I was going to get every year.
Kiwis are good
Reminded me of reading James Herriot
My first birthday after I was married 45 years ago. My husband bought me a flowered memorial cross that you buy for Graves for Memorial day. He had no clue what he bought me, he just thought it was beautiful. Lol.
My husband would have done that. I miss him so much.❤
My wife (butterfly) and I (cricket) absolutely LOVE your channel. Here is a funny gifting story for you. My mother received a Christmas gift from my father one year - a Vacuum. All I will say is the evening of the day after Christmas, there was a diamond bracelet on her wrist. ;)
She gave me some great advice that has served me well. "Never buy a woman ANYTHING that plugs in that she did not directly ask you for."
Keep up the great work!
I like power tools like saws sanders drills but no vacuum for Christmas 🥴🤣
Getting someone an experience is also great. I once was gifted a glass blowing class and it was so fun. My bf at the time also got a latte art class with his dad.
It’s a great gift for people who are decluttering because they get a great memory instead of a physical object.
Love this idea! I can absolutely relate, because I am that person. I know I’m not easy to buy for. I strive to be more minimal and I am not a person who wants gifts. But I know gift giving is some people’s love language and I always appreciate the thought, so something like this (especially if the experience was with the person who gave it to me) would be very much appreciated!
My mom received a gift card to get her upper lip waxed from her mother-in-law. 😂 My grandmother also gifted me the exact same Barbie 3 years in a row. She gave my sister a planner for Christmas that was about to expire that year. She gave my teenage sister a giant case of bar soap. Opening my grandmother's gifts was a highlight of the season for sure 😂
Oh yes, my father is the same. He already gave my kids like three pocket watches each and the same books over and over. Most gifts are for kids that are much younger than mine as if he would not know how old they are. 🙄
My sons pitch in and together got me a spa day. I had access to the spa facilities all day and got a facial , massage, pedicure and a manicure. I got treated to champagne 🥂 and later to some wine 🍷. I even took a nap in their relaxation room. It was marvelous. Then they took me to several art craft events. Oh and the extra surprise we went up on a gondola 🚠 to the top of a mountain in Tahoe. It was absolutely amazing. I can't top that gift. I don't know what to get them. 🤷♀️
All I can say as a woman is ...WOW!😳👍🏼😀
I got a hideous 1980’s style clock… and not just a clock… a 6ft tall heavy resin monstrosity in teal, peach and mauve. Because I have a beach themed house & it slightly resembles a surfboard. The sad thing is that my friend gave it to me, I kept it for a while, then I donated it. I kid you not, she went, found the one I had donated, BROUGHT IT BACK TO ME, because “it matches the one you already have…” Oy vey.
That is hilarious 🤣
OMG you can’t make this stuff up! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I think I would get bummed if I saw that sad duck every day!
The screaming goat had me laughing at loud. It would be great for a white elephant gift.
We have a secret Santa gift-battle thing we do at our friend's party, the screaming goat is one of the gifts we are bringing.
We have the goat. It’s hysterical and we use it all the time 😊!
I got that screaming goat for my hubby. His birthday is the 30th of December and I usually do a gag gift for his bday and a sweet gift for Christmas.
Where did you get it at?
My husband gave me Gummy Boogers for mother's day when our kids were little. The kids thought it was hilarious. I would have thought so too...if he had gotten me something else that wasn't a joke!
I’ll give my husband a pass, but the on our first Christmas (2 months married), he gave me a vacuum and a coffee pot (to make coffee for his thermos). We have been married for 52 years and “most” Christmas’ he has done a bit better😄
That friggin goat! And you keep inserting it through the video! HILARIOUS!!
I gifted my SIL a Christmas sweater the had the phrase "merry Christmas you filthy animal" which i knew from home alone and was a movie she really enjoyed. What I did not look at closely was on the actual sweater pattern was the deer mating.. yeah. 🙈 definitely embarrassed 😅
Embarrassed? It sounds amazing!!! I would LOVE that sweater!
My sister inlaw is a VERY frugal type. One year for Christmas, she gave my mother (a spoiled "princess" 👑type) a bag of dried beans with a typed recipe card for Navy bean soup! Omg, my mother was offended for years 😠she doesn't even cook! Lol, it was so ironic & hilarious 🤣
Is someone touchy? This seems like a very nice gift - not just more "stuff", and is practical and consumable.
Oh Cas, most steakhouses also have chicken or salmon entrees too! If you still have those giftcards, it might be worth a look at their online menu!
For our wedding someone gave us this gigantic vase. When we finally opened it up years later when we were decluttering, we found dried leaves in the bottom and a note from the person who originally regifted it to the people who regifted it to us! 😂
WOOOOOOOOOW!!!! Lol
Oh, my! I literally gasped at 11:00, a half second before you! And, I feel happy when the thought crosses my mind that you are in the world.
I’ve often wished a law would be passed so all games needed to be in the same size box. I love those games so much.
The worst gift I received was from my mother-the gifts were gifts she had been given to by my father (who she divorced) that I helped him pick out for her (she didn’t know that). So not only was a dealing with the divorce trauma but also getting physical reminders of when our family had happier times. It was just an emotional trauma bomb 💣
Lmao the random goat scream cuts are slaying me 😂😂
That screaming goat is so adorable, and I know just the co-worker who REALLY needs it! LOL The thing that I like most about your choices is that most of them are interactive--making candles, writing, Legos, etc. So, it's not just something on the shelf.
The worst gift that I ever received was from my EX -- he gave me an empty heart box for Valentine's, telling me that "You don't need any more sweets, since you need to lose weight...but you can use the box for something..." YEP...no question there as to why he's an EX. LOL Sometimes the rear-view mirror is the best view---"Buh-bye!!"
What a douche.
😮I would have served him the divorce papers in that box.
5:34 I started getting Lego Christmas decorations for my teen son, like the wreath or Christmas tree. They also have instruction for two designs. He loves putting them together and he can take them when he gets his own place. 😁
This is actually one of the better gift guides I've seen. Everyone just kinda shows the same stuff.....but this one is actually thoughtful and unique ideas. Thank you 😊
I'm so glad you think so!
You asked for some ideas the other day for new content. I love watching your organization videos, but also love all of your frugal living ideas. I like videos that you make that have frugal DIY's. Anything frugal from cooking, thrift shopping, what is new at bargain stores, garage sales in the months with nice weather, how to do thrift flips, entertaining on a budget, how to shop sales, vacationing on a budget. Maybe some grocery shopping hauls. People always look for good ideas to save money, and you are excellent at it. Love your channel and your sense of humor!!
A few years after being married to my ex-husband (and dating for 5 years prior to that), his mom got me a bunch of cookbooks for Christmas. I can understand maybe getting the for me the first year we lived together or the first year of marriage but after 4 years in...I got the message...haha! I appreciate where her heart was with it. And funny...almost 10 years later and remarried...I would love to get some cookbooks as a gift. 😁🙌 Merry Christmas all! 🤗💖☃️🌲🎅
I bought that exact Lego Wildflower set fir my daughter for Christmas this year and the Bonsai Tree for myself. I’m looking forward to putting them together!
Before the video ended, the screaming goat was added to my Amazon cart🤣
Worst gift that I've given was a craft fail into which I had invested far too much time to abandon, but I wish I had just abandoned it instead of gifting it. Worst gift given was from the neighbor to my brother who was a teenager at the time. He got a can of Planters nuts that was already opened. That was repeated for many years as a prank gift, but the original from the neighbor was not a joke or a prank. 😂
I love my vaccum i got for Christmas. One of my favorite gifts. And I love steak. I live gift cards for anything. I do not like getting clothing and i do not like getting fuzzy socks. People always love fuzzy socks. Not me. 😂 Gifts are not my live language though. If i do get a gift i like useful and functional over cost or fancyness. Or a gift of hanging out with somone.
After my first child I received a present from a family member. A box of weight watchers soup. Then I opened it up and found baby booties inside. The family member was mortified, she hadn't realised what she had used to out the shoes in. Lol
The worst gift: Days of the Week underwear that I opened at a large family Chrstmas function. I was 12, and mortified. I'm in my 50's and still remember it 😂
Close second: I was overweight after pregnancy, and my dad gave me a Thigh Master.
Oh geez…thanks dad 😐
I was given an “Easter basket” during my senior year of high school by the kid who had asked me to the prom. He meant well enough, but oh my goodness. It was the strangest-looking basket I had ever seen. It had a pair of giant glittery and fabric hearts wrapped around the handle with wire that made it look as though it had antennae, and the faded floral fabric lining the inside was dusty, almost as dusty as the contents. Said contents were a couple of containers of those little 1980s-era bath marbles that are supposed to dissolve in the water and leave behind scented oil. There were also several foil-wrapped, talc-based, even older bath powder cubes that a lot of our grandmas or great-aunts surely kept in their linen closets at least once or twice. The smells were several, none of them great, and the dust made me sneeze. I could appreciate the fact that we were all kids and had virtually no money of our own, and would have had to save up for anything related to the prom, but yikes; I wasn’t expecting or wanting anything from this guy at all, so that was awkward enough. And on top of that, this bundle had clearly come from either an elderly relative’s attic or an elderly neighbor’s garage sale. I smiled, thanked him, and slunk home with it. Made an honest effort to try just one of the bath cubes but it clunked to the bottom of the tub like a rock, and the little bit that did dissolve into the water made me itch like crazy.
Oh my gosh i can smell it 😂
You're lucky the whole cube didn't dissolve!
That screaming goat is mine. Im going to get one for my boss too
My brother in law (whose kitchen is red) gave me (whose kitchen is blue) a red Dash egg cooker. Obviously a regift, but I smiled, said thanks, and stuck it in a cabinet 🤷🏽♀️
give it back as a gift and tell him you got him his own to match his kitchen! (or donate)
I purchased 4 digital frames this year (not aura - a much cheaper one). I plan on preloading pics from my late wife’s phone for each of our children. On a side humorous note… how many of the recipients of some of these gifts will be watching the declutter videos next year to declutter them lol.
My husband gave me a pen (in a box) that a sales rep had given him! And yes it had the company name on it and even though it was in a fairly good box, it wasn’t even a fairly good pen. My husband wrapped it though! That didn’t help! Someone pass me the screaming goat!!!
😂
(But this was 30 odd years ago, and he’s never done things like that again. 😄)
Worst gift:
MIL: We know you don’t like salmon, but we gave you the other half of our Wild About Salmon delivery, because it’s too much for us.
Me: Actually, I DO like salmon, I just couldn’t eat it when I lived with you because I was sick and pregnant. But thanks for regifting me something you thought I would hate. It’s the thought that counts!
😂😂
Thank you! Just ordered 3 shawls and 2 slippers! Great ideas
One year I was given the “inspirational” t-shirt that was too small and a tin that was purchased containing candy , but the candy was removed before they gave it to me.
Lovely, you make me smile 😊
My extended family used to draw names for a Christmas gift exchange. When I was around 10-12 years old (to my horror!) my aunt gave me 3 pairs of screaming bright blue silky underwear! I was mortified!! They came all the way up to my chest and my dear mother took them and made use of them.
Oh wow. This made me laugh so hard! A gift like that to a young girl is horrible 😂 The fact that you remember it so vividly is a testament to how traumatic it was. Also that you tried them on and they fit so poorly. I’m so sorry
I actually love hand knit gifts and I’m low key jealous of the talent for something I can’t do
My worst gift I ever received was from a Secret Santa. It was leftover Halloween candy (with Halloween designs on them) and an eyeshadow sample. Everyone else got inexpensive, but nice, stuff.
LOL, my ex walked into the house after work on Valentine's Day, handed me some half-dead freeway ramp roses, threw a Snickers bar on the table, and said, "I know you don't like these, but it's all they had"! Yeah, sorry ladies, he's taken! 😂🤣🤣😂. Good riddance!
I too received inspirational clothes. 😂
My father in law was gifted the Ancestry DNA kit. He has always celebrated his German roots. Turns out he has no links to German but is 98%English and Scottish. He believes the test was defective 🤣
I once got a bag of old potpourri (the bag had a layer of dust) that had an odd fragrance... like old towels... 😂
I cracked up at the screaming goat. 😂 Your facial expressions were perfect!
Love the gift ideas! Especially the screaming goat! 😂 Perfect for work friends.
I’ve received toy fruit ornaments, plastic basket in the shape of a fish in the color blue, & an ugly pot with flowers painted on inside. These are my top 3 worst gifts I think
These ideas are so helpful! That label maker was super cool! We have the Aura frame to my in-laws last year. I'm going to hang onto these ideas!
My 24 and 22 year old sons both love Star Wars Lego sets!
A couple of years ago, I got similar chopsticks for my daughter, she loved them!
This is not a Christmas gift, but for Valentine's Day, my stepsister received Bath and Body works spray and I got a book titled, How to better your self esteem in 15 mins. I did have a self esteem problem, but I didn't think it was that bad until I got the book. It was more of a book for adults, it was HUGE, and I was a teenager. I did try to read it, but eventually, I gave it away. My step mom did apologize years later.
Thank you for all the great ideas!! ❤
Thank you so much for suggesting the Aura e-frame. My mom (age 84l) loves it so much!!
I think the photo frame could be a good group gift if siblings wanted to get something special for Mom and Dad, Grandma and Grandpa. It would be nice especially if there are family members all over the country.
Admittedly, it's a better gift if your loved one *actually has home wifi for it to connect to* so they can actually receive new photos 😅 And if they're unlikely to want to deal with batteries, make sure you get a unit that can be plugged in! My aunt meant well but I'm pretty sure grandma shoved that thing in a closet and forgot about it as soon as the batteries died. Recurring costs like internet and batteries are not something she is interested in with her limited pension (and if you're going with rechargeable batteries, at that point you might as well plug the whole thing into the wall to save a step)
So how do I hint to my husband & kids that I want this?!
Amaz ball ideas ❤
Merry Christmas to you and your family ❤
I love the goat...i HAVE the goat!! lololzzz
Wonderful ideas! I wish that I had watched this a week ago! We can't count on any next day delivery in Northern Ontario, let alone close to Christmas!
Such a great collection of ideas. Thank you, Cas!
I bought some of your recommendations...the journals, the light sabre chopsticks. Thanks for the video. Love all your choices.
I love that stinking goat. My husband needs this! Lots of cool ideas. Thanks for the help.
Great gift ideas Cass. Thanks. Wishing you and your family a joyous Christmas season.🎁🧑🎄🌲🎅🤶
Thanks for the gift ideas! There were a few I'd never seen before and are really cool ideas!
My worst gifts were a set of socks and underwear from one of my grandmothers (like, no. preteens/teens do not want this type of gift, lol). She only gets a pass because after I became an adult I realized she lived through the Great Depression so she probably thought I'd appreciate it?
My worst Christmas was one year when I had TONS of presents under the tree and I was SO excited--only to find that the vast majority of them were board games. A couple were even missing parts. I found out later that they were all new, but they were from a store that was going out of business so they basically got them at fire sale prices! 😂 If I had siblings, these probably would have been great. Sadly, I was an only child and my parents would even play any of these games with me. I have no idea why neither of them thought of this when buying them all, lol! So yeah, super disappointing Christmas that year.
Aww that’s really sad ☹️ maybe they thought you’d play with friends?
Okay…you talked me into it! 😉 I have a running joke with my DIL about labeling all the light switches in their new home because no matter what switch we use, we end up turning off the TV…and in the middle of football season (with a son/spouse who is a coach), hitting the wrong switch is bad…really bad! So I am getting her the label maker. I know it will be an excellent gift for her as she also owns two bakeries and it will come in handy for her at work too! Thanks for the awesome suggestions…I’m off to browse through the rest of the list…
Great gift ideas. The worst gift I ever received was perfume. It was called Street scents or something like it. (Here's your sign) It stunk like all bad street smells but I kept it & gave it back to the recipient a few years later. She thought the same thing & wasn't happy with the gift. It was then that she realized she had originally gifted it to me. Lmao 😂
These are fantastic! Thank you! Thank you!
Lots of great gift ideas. I don't really have a "bad gift" that I got. I loved getting a vacuum and other household items for Christmas.
Great Ideas!! Thank you!
One gift I'll never forget was at my teacher's "White Christmas Party" where everyone brings a Crazy gift to exchange. You could pick from the group of gifts or steal from someone who'd gotten a cool gift. I picked a "half toilet seat" (not realizing what it was all wrapped!) The card said, very rudely: "For my half-assed friends!" Very gross, but everyone laughed and obviously, no one "stole" it from me!!! So obviously I trashed it!
That was way back in the 70"s and I've never forgotten it! LOL!!!
Some really good gift ideas, thank you Cass. Can’t think of any particularly bad gifts, but I never buy perfume as a present (or enjoy receiving it).
OMGosh! You rock! What a perfect Title. Just what I needed to see in my inbox.
I have these sleepers. They are the best!!!!!!!
My husband gave me an ironing board for our first anniversary. There have been other horrible gifts throughout the last 39 years (gift giving is not his love language, apparently) but he's never lived that one down.
the screaming goat would be great for all the "Funcles" (Fun Uncle) out there, lol
I'm getting me that goat!
The worse gift to me was in my late 20’s, divorced with two young sons. The cute guy who lived in the apartment above me gave my sons beautiful jars filled with candy. My jar contained Sweet and Low.
ouch!
I didnt know how much i wanted a screaming goat until today!! 😂😂
My mother-in-law was the queen of bad gifts for me. One year I got a super bright red sweat shirt(I never wear bright red) that was 2 sizes too large. Another time she gave me a hand painted nanna vase.
One year my husband gave me a pair of rubber hip waders😮😮😮. I don’t fish and I was heavy at the time and I couldn’t even fit them!
Thanks cas wonderful video!
Cas, I love your spunk! The screaming goat🐐is a MUST HAVE!🤣🤣I just ordered it! Blessings and best Christmas wishes to you and your family ❤
On @Cityline yesterday, the craft project was making those board game book things.
Love these! Merry Christmas!
The AURA frame is awesome 💯... We got it three years ago for my mom and mother in law. Super easy to load pics... And other family members can have all the pics in frame on their phones when you invite them to get the app
The worst gift I received was when I was a kid. My mom's friend crocheted a clown with super long arms and legs. I had just watched Poltergeist and that clown freaked me out. I kept it in the closet and it was eventually lost or given away when we moved. Also, there was a dead tree outside my window!
😂 that thing would have found its way to a trash can immediately. Poltergeist did in clowns for sure.
Oh, YEAH! I HATE clowns--always have. Never thought they were funny at the circus. Creepy!
Nightmare fuel! After Poltergeist absolutely zero clowns allowed.
Lol, Gail. That would be freaky! Glad it got lost 👍👍
😂 No further explanation needed 🤡
Omg I Love The duck night light! I want to get one for a gift and one for myself. Thanks great video !
That screaming goat would be perfect for my work desk. 🐐😂
Love them❤❤❤❤❤❤
My husbands family gets him fancy nuts every year. He’s been allergic for over 20 years.
Yikes 😅That's definitely the worst one I've seen so far!
Omg!!!🫣😭
Worst gift was for my son, he was dealing with a new diagnosis for apraxia (a speech disorder) and we were gifted a “learn how to speak French” thing. He was struggling in his mother tongue and they wanted him to start learning a second language 😅
I want the duck night light!!! 😂❤😅
Thank you so much for this video, really helped me find some lovely last minute gifts and yes, someone is getting the screaming goat as a gift! We’re going to make sure they open it here so we can have a tap too!
The worst gift I ever got was some earrings made from fish scales-purchased in the Caribbean. I have a fish phobia, so sounded pretty much like your screaming goat when I opened them.
😂😂
I once got 2 paper grocery bags full of feminine products...
That's really bad!!
When you got to the face masks, I thought "who wants Covid masks?" - oops. Lol
Very helpful video, thank you!
This was a very big help seeing how Xmas is 2wks away. Thanks
I got those light saber chopsticks! Their awesome!!
My favourite is the screaming goat!!! 🐐 And that label maker is dreamy 😃 Thanks so much for the inspo!
