Are you guilty of buying your spouse or significant other a bad gift? Over the years I have purchased my wife a salad spinner, stuffed her stocking with Listerine Breath Strips (what the heck was I thinking?) and purchased concert tickets for a show I was much more interested in than she was.
What are your bad gift stories and how did you recover?

I am surprised she didn't divorce you!
How long did you go to counseling?
No Chris, we haven't ended up in counseling… yet. I hope I have redeemed myself this year. What's the worst gift you have given?
