i must tell you this .i worked at M&S and when we reopened after christmas ,i was on the exchanges and refund desk .a girl came in and handed me 3 pr of briefs ,she said she hadn't a receipt as they were a present .i could smell fabric conditioner on them .they had obviously been worn and washed .then given to this girl as a present .she was mortified .

My mother in law was given a toilet roll dolly (you know the one that is knit with a doll stuck in the dress to cover your loo rolls) that was off her mother in law.

Says everything about how you feel about people doesn't it.

The worst I've been given is a used casserole dish that hadn't even been washed. And the person who gave it to me still insisted it was brand new!
