Worst festivals Gifts
With festivals almost here, it is time to rack your brains for the perfect festivals presents. The survey conducted by Galaxy Research revealed that if by any chance, you've socks, jocks and blenders in your list of festivals gifts, then it's time that you cross them off, for they are among the most hated festival gifts this year, at least that's what a new Oz survey suggests. These along with books, underwear and dressing gowns, made up for the most unpopular but widely received of all festivals gifts.
In fact, 56 per cent of people said that they would re-gift many of such items throughout the next year. In October, Galaxy questioned 1242 people aged 13 years and older on behalf of NAB and it was found that there was significant disparity between how people perceive their gift giving prowess and the reality.
Despite 69 per cent of Australians rating their present buying ability as above average in the survey, almost 72 per cent of people regularly receive a festivals gift they don't like. Grandparents scored the lowest when it comes to giving gifts—they were rated as the worst gift givers (37 per cent), with mums taking second spot (20 per cent) and dads third (14 per cent), reports theage.com.au.
But, almost one-third of blokes were still planning to but kitchen utility for their partners. A list of popular gift ideas from David Jones has the Chanel No 5 Eau Premiere perfume as the top gift for women and an iPod Nano as the male equivalent.
For boys, Lego and Transformers products are suggested, and for girls, Barbie and Baby Alive. Kmart's top ten toys for festivals include the Ben 10 Alien Force - Ultimate Omnitrix, a Star Wars Clone Wars vehicle and the Lego city coast guard platform for boys. For girls there's a cupcake maker, Barbie princess doll and My Little Pony sing and dance horse
Clothes bought by parents topped the unwanted gift list for teenage girls over 50 per cent were unhappy about receiving them as gifts. However, 70 per cent of parents rated clothes as a good purchase for daughters.
On the other hand, for teenage boys, books got the big thumbs down. Kitchen appliances make up for the most re-gifted item for women and were also the type of gift women would least like to receive from their partner.
Make sure you let Santa know well before what you would NOT like as a gift !!
