Contest: The Worst Christmas Gift I Ever Got

[NOTE: This contest was held in December 2006. It's over. Done. Ended. Thanks!]

It happens every Christmas. You're handed a brilliantly wrapped box that potentially contains your heart's desire, but when you rip off the paper you find a pair of flannel footed pajamas covered with poodle designs in a size you haven't worn since jr. high school (not that you'd ever have worn them anyway, even in jr. high).

Or if you're like some of the readers we've already heard from, maybe you found a box of cereal or a dead mouse under the Christmas tree. (We think the last one was from the cat.)

So what's the worst Christmas present you've ever received? Send us your entry and you could win a stocking full of fun toys and treats (some of the items pictured here). Use them yourself or wrap them up and get some Christmas gift revenge.

To enter, send an email to contact@joannebrokaw.com and put in the subject line "Worst Christmas Gift". Make sure to include your NAME, MAILING ADDRESS and EMAIL ADDRESS in the body of the email. Deadline to enter is 18th.

We'll pick one winner from all entries received from people who followed the rules.
