When I was a kid
there was a place that would send out a free video of carpet samples.
I used to give them out for birthday presents.

The last birthday present I gave someone was
a rubber ball (red) and a box of matches. The year before I gave him a roll of sticky-tape.

My brother and I
re-wrapped and re-gifted a bottle of horrible aftershave to each other on birthdays and christmasses for many years. It was a plasic bottle of Old Spice or something.
