This is the first Christmas where nothing has been broken,as well as no double

Hiya jugs, Sounds like your Children have had a good Christmas. I´ve never had that problem with living over here the Family of his or mine have never been ones for giving presents at Christmas. I have had to buy my kids presents myself so I have never had that problem. But it does make for variety if one is broken so you can change it for something else they might really like instead.

The only double here was a calendar for my daughter. but we caught it before Christmas!

Well, that is great to hear. I wish I could have said the same. I had to return a few things this year but that was alright. I got gift cards instead and will buy something else with the money for myself also.

Then it's your exceptional Christmas. You are lucky. I hope the the next year will be unbroken for you. Wish you a happy and a Grand New Year.

Hi Jugs, The after sales service is great that you could return the broken products to the shop, if no, you don't need to worry about that.. We don't have this kind of service here. If the products you bought is easy to fragile and it is broken because of the people's behaviour, we should admit the fault of ouself and no return for goods.

I just wish christmas was very day! I LOVE PRESENTS! I don't like when a friend or something recieves the same gift as me at all. I want my own present and i dont want anyone to have one like it!

well the othre grandma and santa brought 2 set of the same Pjs but heck she can still were them!

There are few gifts under our tree this years as even before Christmas happen I have already given the gifts to my family without a gift wrapper. This is the only time we did not open gifts during Christmas eve. We are so tired preparing Christmas and only my younger brother was the one valuing opening of Christmas gifts.

hi jugsjugs yes thats what used to happen to us too. there would be one thing that was broken or had something on it that did not work. well we were both pretty broke this year so our gifts were practical. for me I got a new set of head phones that are fantastic as they pick up every note so clear and a small flashlight so I can pick my way to the bathroom without turning on my lamp and waking my room mate. I gave my son a gift card for his favorite book store and a supply of snack goodies for his room. non breakable Affordable and something we could both enjoy and use.Happy New Year Jugsjugs to you and your family hope you have a great new y ear.

i have a niece that got 3 wallets with the same style but in different colors. i told her to be happy she has monday wednesday friday wallets, she needs two more for tuesday and thursday. har har har. i know what my niece feels when she got three gifts that are the same. she would be delighted if those wallets has large amount inside. its not easy to think of gifts, i know that for i am always having a hard time thinking. lucky me that my wife is the one who is brain storming for that yearly.

Hi, jugsjugs. I am very glad to hear that. It is good to know when an gift is not broken on Christmas Day. I know that everyone will want to take good care of the gifts that they have gotten. I hope that you have a very Merry Christmas for the rest of the day!

Well, that is a good thing. It is the law of numbers I think. I always keep receipts on everything until I feel safe. It's alot of paper but I do get rid of it as soon as I can. I think it pays in the long run. Something is always broken or the wrong size or color or something. What did they ever do back when most things were home made.

With the kids we had the same kind of luck that you had this year. Nothing was broken and nothing was a toy that they already had. However, of the four gifts that I recieved altogether, I ended up with three bread pans and actually started a discussion about that. I mentioned that I needed a bread pan to my mother and she passed it on to my brother and sister-in-law. My mother-in-law asked what I wanted for Christmas and I told her that I'd told my side of the family that I wanted a bread pan and she took that to mean that she had to get me a bread pan as well. Unfortunately, I can't get a receipt for any of them so next year I am going to give a bread making kit as a Christmas gift next year.

oh that is wonderful to know. I am glad you had a fun holiday. :)

That is great I have been lucky as that did not happen often but I am so glad that this year it went great for you

That is wonderful!!! I am glad nothing got broken, and no one got things they already had. We had a bit of a double gift this year, but it was funny. We, along with a friend of ours, both really like Serbian and Croatian plum brandy (Sljivovitz in Serbian, Sljivovica in Croatian). Well we bought him a bottle of Sljivovica, and he ended up giving us a bottle of Sljivovitz. haha It was pretty funny that we both thought of the same thing, but it was perfectly OK, since we both love the stuff so much anyway. LOL

Its great to know Christmas is extra special for you and your family this year. Im not so lucky. All I received this year are shirts that didn't fit me. Im glad to know that at least there are people out there who actually got to enjoy their gifts.^_^

A Christmas to remember for the good things that happened. Hope all your family is well and that the New Year will bring many blessings to you all.

hi jugsjugs, that is common,some times we may get broken gifts also,but we does not know from where it was purchased,the exchange may be possible in your areas is permitted,but in our area it is not permitted,no shop keeper will replace it,we have to return the same to the same friend or we have to keep same thing with fixing it once again with some glue like that,have a nice day

Same here, everything was great and no gifts were returned. We had a little problem with a bathroom shelving unit but my honey managed to fix it himself. On of the parts didn't have a hole for the screw to go in so he made one himself. It wasn't easy since we don't have a drill but everything worked out all right.
