why do people buy socks for folk as a present? Id see that as a lazy thoughtless insult rather than something considerate ! id rather they saved their cash and bought me nothing.and then you don't need to go through the pretence of pretending its what you've always wanted because you've never managed to buy your own socks before.

really ? but generally its a make do thing when you cant be bothered or its for relatives you hardly see.
ive always told girlfriends and family not to waste money buying anything for me. instead put the money they'll save into buying themselves something nice instead that way everyone gets something theyll really want or enjoy !
I only buy things for my 2 kids, no one else gets anything .
