What is the strangest pressie you have had to buy this year? my ten year old son wanted Smosh bobble heads for his main ( yes, I didn't know what they were either, had to get them from the US!)

Anyone had any weird requests for gifts?

My other son is having a bitcoin miner.

What happened to socks and toy cars?lol

    When I was 12 I got my 8 year old brother Cat Toys, we didn't own a Cat and I don't really know why I did it.

    not bought anything strange but one year I got a small tabletop fountain ,plastic and you switched it on and the water came up over it in it's fountain way. Only problem was (as if that wasn't enough) was you had to plug it in and the cable wasn't long and the water would splash over the side. Not the best of ideas

    You can buy bitcoin miners? :o

    I want one...


    (I knew you can mine bitcoins I just thought it was some uber geeky process that I'd have no hope in hell of understanding)

    My boyfriend bought several packets of napkins from 'Home Bargains' yesterday. They have fake £10 and £20 notes printed on them and are 'shaped' to size(actually pretty good copies). He thinks it will be hilarious to wrap them up and give them out as stocking fillers for Christmas.

    I worry about him. He's 40 next year and it can only get worse.

    I had those things last year but they were put in a Christmas card.
