Next Friday at work, we all have to buy something that is $10 max, chuck it under a tree and someone hands it out.
Problem is:
1. What do I buy as it is a mixed workplace
2. I really hate this crap and am supposed to be enthusiastic about it

We had one when I was a Public Servant and this silly bimbo gave me a furry dildo, wow, just what I always wanted:mad: , to make matters worse directors and heads of dept were present and 'I' was the one getting the 'you disgusting person' looks.
I didn't buy the bloody thing and binned it on the way out of the office, but somehow it was my fault.

That's disgusting Iain. http://www.ubeaut.biz/scowl.gif Why would you bring something like that into an office? :confused:



:p

when I was a Public Servant .. 'I' was the one getting the 'you disgusting person' looks.

I look at many public servants like that. :p

Why not give someone a real thrill. Instead of hating the whole thing (and I don't blame you for that), spend more than $10.00, say a CD or book voucher, and watch someone appreciate it,

OR

give them a receipt for a piglet (http://www.caregifts.org.au/home.asp), with a note that says something like "I know you're not the sort of person that would appreciate a furry dildo, so have donated enough money to buy a piglet (http://www.caregifts.org.au/home.asp) for someone who really needs it. Perhaps you may care to do the same for someone else."

Trust me, all the girls will think you're "sweet", and all the blokes will nod knowingly!

There are of course an abundance of kittens in town 'free to good home'.
How many are $10 worth???
The bastard in me is starting to emerge.

[silentC]

Only ever had to do it once and we drew names out so we knew who we were buying for.

Bit ironic buying a piglet for someone for Christmas. Ham sandwich anyone?

Driving through Landsborough a few weeks ago, I saw a box with half a dozen of the things with a sign that said:

"free crab bait"

If I may don my serious hat for a second, I got all thingy recently when I read the last "world distribution of wealth" stats.

Basically, if you own a house in this country you are in the wealthiest 2% on this planet.

It seemed to me that spending about the same on a breeding sow for someone in the bottom 2%, than we spend on one ham, wasn't going to be such a big deal.

If you're too tight to redistribute wealth by donation, buy a tee-shirt from the fabulous PDRacerwear Collection (http://www.caregifts.org.au/home.asp) and I'll do it for you!

:D :D :D

What's this about wealth?

We won our christmas ham in the local preschool raffle. They're not the poorest 2% but they're amongst the shortest. Does that count?

Nah.

According to the last figures, total assetts of $2,000 puts you in the top 50%.

So if you won your Christmas ham, you'd have enough for TWO piglets!! :D :D :D

[silentC]

But we had to pay three times what it was worth to buy the book of tickets!!

I hope the little darlings like their new sandpit. :mad:

Iain, get them a hand painted Christmas decoration, something like the attached file.

It costs about $8 and they are generally very well received. You can write your name on it and each Christmas they have a nice decoration to remember you by.

[Wongo]

What about a pack of 7 undies for $9.95

OR

A pack of condoms

[RufflyRustic]

I bought my Secret Santa nominee a shots game with a magnetic dartboard, spin the dartboard, throw the dart, it lands hopefully on the board, down a shot, do what the b oard says and everyone has fun (hopefullly) $8.99 from your local cheap and cheerful store.

Cheers (hic) Literrally....

um, who am I again....:confused:

Went to one a few nights ago

but they did a much different handout.

1st person collected and unwrapped theirs.

2nd person had a choice of taking the first persons unwrapped one or taking another from the pile. If they took an already unwrapped one the 1st person took another one from the pile.

3rd person had a choice of taking the 1st or 2nd persons unwrapped one or taking another from the pile. If they took an already unwrapped one the 1st or 2nd person (as the case may be) took another one from the pile.

the 4th person had a choice of ....

and it went on until they were all gone.

If yer wanta be real crafty yer need ter be the very last one in the group as you've got the pick of the bunch.

It was actually a very entertaining exercize.

unless its secret santa like our work is doing, then they wont know it was you.
my decision was made for me, the guy whose name I drew emailed everyone saying he wanted a packet of smokes .... however he didnt mention if the packet needed to be full or not :D

[silentC]

I'd give him a packet of nicotine patches!

[Harry72]

C'mon we are all woodies... make them something simple that cost you diddly squat... buy yourself some beer or whiskey instead!
