These people shared the strangest, least-appreciated gifts they've ever received, and there are some real stunners here. My favorite is the aunt who literally gifted someone a panini press — great gift, right? No. You're so wrong. It would've been a great gift, were it not for the pressed sandwich still enclosed inside! I can only imagine the horror of unwrapping such an item… hopefully followed by like, a full hour of laughter over what an insane gift experience that must've been.
That's the danger of regifting, isn't it? You might end up accidentally giving your family member a fossilized sandwich, or maybe you accidentally bestow them with a towel with your initials monogrammed in. I mean, there are apparently a lot of ways that gifting and regifting can go wrong — just check out the stories below.

Some people have good intentions when they do things like this, but they're too open about their motivations and end up spoiling the whole gift

How odd!
You can get second-hand books for pennies, and even when they're used books, they're usually still a thoughtful present. This just goes to show that she either forgot or couldn't be bothered to do anything special for her husband's partner.

This might be the worst one!
This person could put the fossilized sandwich from that person's aunt into this Tupperware container, then bury both items in the yard so they'll never undergo another re-gifting experience.

How strange... but honestly, with the right friend group, you could still have a fun time even with plastic bowling pins

You gotta divorce her, my friend

It's ok if your partner gets you work stuff as long as 1) you actually want that and 2) they get you something else you want that's unrelated to work. She failed at both. She doesn't seem to like you very much, and I hope you can surround yourself with people who do enjoy your presence instead.

The funniest response would be to put it on the mantle untouched. When people ask about it, you have a funny story queued up!
