Most pointless Christmas present ever? Nominations please!

Just seen this on a Robert Dyas flyer - great for Secret Santa, apparently. In which galaxy exactly?!

Apologies for mentioning the C word before 1 December

My sister in law, queen of re-giving gave my wife a steering wheel lock for Xmas once. She rode a motorbike at the time.

This, just why ?

I have just been given the sister of my misses in the nightmare that is the family Secret Santa draw. This would suit perfectly...except for the fact I have to take it carry on to Ireland for Christmas Day.

A fire accelerant for the fire place is a useful gift in the winter.

An ice scraper.

Not so useless you might think, but my MIL bought me an ice scraper last year & I put it in the drawer with the one she bought me the year before, and the year before that and the year before that...

There are currently 7 ice scrapers in that drawer.

I use a de-icing spray when its frosty.

And I'd be interested if anyone has ever worn an ice scraper out within 12 months.

My wife received a £5 Pizza Express voucher a few years ago. That might buy a side salad if that?

Leaf blower! used it to push the leaves around the garden a few times which was pointless.

I used to find those cheap car vacuum cleaners that can't suck a crumb up wonderful. This sort:

I wonder who got the battery.

The exact same drill. What are the chances.

I got three AA batteries and a cheap biro from an Aunt once.

The batteries were apparently because I was bound to get something tha needed a battery at Xmas.

Cheap biro as well.

Don't know about the most pointless Christmas present, but the most worrying was a DIY vasectomy kit and a bottle of Jim Beam I got in the office secret santa last year

I'm sure I posted this last year, but my wife and I received a family planner/calander from my mum as a stocking filler - this is despite the fact that she is fully aware we cannot have children and have been unsuccessful with IVF.

Wow! That really is thoughtless.

My in-laws gave me the 3rd book in some awful looking series of sci-fi novels. I had never heard of them, let alone read the first 2.
