Panic BuyingIt's the last shopping day before the whole country shuts down for christmas. You've been looking all over for something, anything, to buy your favourite person. Something that says you care, that makes them see you in a new light.
Well, something that won't make them punch you would do. My brother-in-law once bought his wife a bin for her birthday - it was a very nice bin, but boy was he in the crud for days.
What have you bought in sheer panic and desperation? Go on, you know you do it every year.

Cigar BoxThere was the time I bought a knife sharpener for my wife. Damn good one too. Useful for weapons, like the ones that were aimed at me.
But the one I remember most was buying a cigar box. I thought its multiple colors made it looked like it was already wrapped (saving me the trouble), but my sister wasn't fooled. Plus, I forgot, and left the receipt inside, confirming for her what a cheap bastard I really was.
