The WORST Gift Ideas to Give This Year

While we proudly boast well over 25,000 items in-store with 17,000 of these online, you’re sure to find the perfect gift for each and every giftee you’re shopping for.

We have, however, put together a list of items NOT to gift this year. Or to at least gift at your discretion.

Here are the WORST Gift Ideas:

Roach Bags Clips

A pretty nasty but effective solution to your family stealing your chips. Not a lovely gift to unwrap…

A Diet Spoon

Maybe stand a couple of metres back when your recipient opens this one up… Gift with caution

Onion Goggles

Fun? Maybe. Useful? Slightly. A good gift? Not for me

Grumpy Old Man Apron

Merry Christmas Dad! Please no one send this to my dad…

Whiskey Tango Foxtrot Dishcloth

This could go one of two ways…

Offensive Cookies

A lovely batch of homemade cookies could never go wrong! Unless maybe they told you to die among other offensive things.

Fishy Fingers Soap

What a nice way to tell someone they stink, and a pretty unpleasant smell at that!

Potato Brush

A brush that looks like a potato… “Thanks so much!!!” Is something you’re sure not to hear.

Parsley, Sage, Rosemary & ____ OFF Oven Mitt

Looks good from afar, but far from good. Quite subtle, but quite rude. A great oven mitt to whip out when that certain visitor overstays their welcome (also see ‘Go Away’ tea towel).

DrinksPlinks Trays

Actually a very fun tray that can be used for ice, soaps, chocolates and more. A letter not relevant to their name might be pretty uninspiring though.

Just a card, and not a relevant one…

Sometimes just a thoughtful card can be a lovely gift. A crude one, not as much. A card like this might not be an excellent gift for the family. Did anyone else receive a Birthday card from Nan for Christmas one year?

Daddy Caddy

A cool name, a cool product, but pretty useless if you don’t have a Scrub Daddy. Maybe pair this with a Scrub Daddy…

Cleaning Gloves

“Your home is a mess, get cleaning.” That is what you’re basically saying.

We hope this list has been useful, and maybe made you reconsider a gift or two. Perhaps it’s actually given you a gift idea for that one annoying family member that you still have to shop for. For more cheeky gift ideas, shop here. For genuine gift ideas, shop here.

Merry Christmas!
