Secret Santa Banker

Dec 18, 2007 21:24

We did Secret Santa at work. There was a $25 limit. I got my boss' name. He got some cool books that he had asked for. There was a LIST we all had to make. A VERY SPECIFIC LIST OF THINGS WE WANTED. He asked for books, got books. Someone asked for doggie toys for her doggies, and lo and behold!! She got dog toys! Most people got what they wanted ( Read more... )

Hell, they could have given you a $10 gift card to a craft shop, and a $15 gift card to Wal-Mart or some store that carries DVDs. Just handing you cash.....shows they put no thought or effort into the gift.

EXACTLY!!! I was so excited, 'cause I thought it was a certificate to a bead shop or something. I felt kinda stupid being let down by seeing cash... but UGH!!!

Right. That's kind of a "CRAP! Is that thing TODAY??" *stuffs cash into an envelope* kind of response.

Yes exactly!! She's going on about her gift this morning to her secret santa. "OH, I LOVED that lotion you gave me!! I used it last night."

I SOOOO Felt like taking out my wallet, checking inside, and saying, "I still haven't used the CASH you got me!!"

It's not lamer than cash, but my Mom leaves the price tags on EVERYTHING. Makes me freaking insane.

Oh, Russell Stover chocolate. The kind what you buy at Walgreen's. I hate that crap.
