Panic Buying
It'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.

Not Christmas Presents, but still undeniably shite ones
At the same party I posted about for the last question of the week, two attendees were on their way when they realised that they hadn't, in fact, bought presents. So, one stop at a service station later, and between them, they gave to the bloke who's party it was:
Some sensitive milk teeth toothpaste
A tin of spam
Some cool relief pads for high heeled shoes (so you can dance the night away without burning foot pain, apparantely)
And a nylon scarf.
It should be pointed out that the person receiving them was 15, male, and doesn't, as far as I know, have a dirty little cross dressing secret.
As you can guess, he was ever so grateful.
