Plateau Mama Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 An empty box. Yup MIL Gave me an empty box. It was really funny because my niece was handing it to me and my MIL is screaming "Be careful, it's fragile!" I open the box and there are pieces of tissue paper and I'm thinking, "is this supposed to be a really nice collector box or something?" The missing present turned up a few presents later.

Rachel Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Ha. Glad it turned up. Last year I mailed an empty envelope that was supposed to have our Chrsitmas card in it to a friend. We were at her house and I noticed everyone else's cards hanging up so I asked if she had gotten ours. She chuckled and told me what happened. I was embarrassed but at least it wasn't someone who was offended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Word Nerd Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Was the fragile item a snowflake? ;) Glad the actual gift materialized later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan in SC Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 My mom mislabeled gifts last Christmas and my ds opened a Ninja blender. My ds saw the word ninja and thought, "Cool!" My sil, who asked for a ninja blender, was about to have a stroke. It made for a very entertaining moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Renthead Mommy Posted December 31, 2014 Share Posted December 31, 2014 Last Monday or Tuesday my friend's toddler walked into the kitchen and happily handed her handfuls of gift tags off the gifts under the tree. Have not heard how that turned out yet, but must have been interesting... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
