Gumball Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 That's happened to me a few times. Example - Nice box from a jewelry store (with the store name on it) with a gift inside that looked like it came from the dollar store instead. The bad part was that these were usually from somebody that had a decent job and could easily afford to shop at the store the box was from. Anybody else have that happen to them?
erh12275 Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 Nope but maybe you should have "regifted" back to this person the next year...to let them know you knew...lol.

Gumball Posted November 10, 2005 Author Posted November 10, 2005 HEHEHHEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!! THAT WOULD BE FUNNYI didn't think so at the time. It was from a boyfriend.
BrandyJervas Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 he'd would be dumped but nope and I hope it never does I'd be mad but I have been given expensive stuff that still looked like crap I'm real picky about my jewelry I don't like anything tacky but a lot of guys seem to think bigger is better and it isn't always sometimes less is more
erh12275 Posted November 10, 2005 Posted November 10, 2005 I didn't think so at the time. It was from a boyfriend. Sounds like a creep. Guessing that he's gone?!!??

Guest all2tired Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Nope, my cheap gifts go in cheap boxes
WELUVKDS79 Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 Yes, but usually it was when I was really broke and the nice box was a leftover from the year prior.
outnumbered Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 LOL, I had a relative that used to do that all the time. She'd shop at upscale department stores for her own family and gifts I received from her would come in a box from those stores, but would be from a much less expensive store. Like the box was going to fool me when I saw the tag or brand, LOL. I didn't care--I like clothes if they look good on me, not because of some label--but I thought it was funny.
WELUVKDS79 Posted November 11, 2005 Posted November 11, 2005 That IS kind of funny....I have only done it 1 year and my first son and I were living off like $750 that month....
