A bag of onions, toilet roll, anti-wrinkle cream and a fly zapper have been identified in a survey as among the worst gifts that people say they have ever received, with one in four saying they had an unwanted Christmas present last year.
Consumer group Which? commissioned a survey of more than 2,000 people who received Christmas gifts in 2022. It found that nearly a quarter (24 per cent) had received gifts that were unwanted or unsuitable.
When asked what they did with the unwanted gift, nearly three in 10 (27 per cent) said they had either given it away or were planning to, around one in seven (14 per cent) sold or planned to sell it on an online marketplace and 8 per cent had either returned the gift or were planning to.
Less popular ways of getting rid of unsuitable gifts included throwing it away (5 per cent) and giving it back to the person who gifted it (3 per cent), according to the research carried out by Opinium across the UK in January 2023.
