For my 13th or 14th, my aunty gave me those fridge magnets advertising her company from work the same day she bought herself a new car.

About a month before my 21st, my Aunt and Uncle collected a cool $15 mil from tattslotto so, naturally,...

Can't leave it at that TheWoodenSlug!

Did they share the love? How much stuff have you bought?

Mate, I've not seen penny one. I guess it could be seen as a good thing - they've not changed one bit since becoming millionaires. Unfortunately they were the world's biggest tight arses beforehand, which means they still are. For example, my aunt still fills her handbag with sugar sachets whenever they visit McDonalds ("Why would I bother paying for it, if I can get it for free?"). I remember only a few months after they won it, she was out shopping with my mum and mum said the dialogue went kind of like this:

Aunt: Ooh, I like this top, what do you think?
Mum: Yeah that is nice.
Aunt: Oh, but it is $50.
Mum: ...*
Aunt: I will keep looking, might buy it later.
Mum: How about this one?
Aunt: No, I don't like the style... ...actually, how much is it?
Mum: $30
Aunt: Hmm, says here I can get 2 of these for $50..*purchase*

She actually bought 2 shirts that she didn't even like, cheap arse!

I had multiple holographic Charizards.

Back in primary school a mate was moving to the eastern states to live. I autographed the Charizard (across the picture) and gave it to him.

Hmm, really shows their true colours doesn't it?

I was gonna like that post but I'd be pissed off personally, so just in-case you were feeling the same - I thought I'd just reply and make you feel even worse haha. Jokin', thanks for sharing.

I got given Andrew Gaze's board game off of "Santa" and then received it again from a cousin later that same day. Didn't play it once.

That tops the Secret Santa gift I got at school which was a key ring and an exercise book.

My nan who is a bit eccentric one gave me and my brothers some underwear that she bought from the market. They were used, there were marks.

My ex's mum bought me a book called "101 ways to improve yourself" book for Christmas haha

My aunty gave me a packet of tie-dye scrunchies for Christmas a couple of years back, could have done without that. I think my mum was more annoyed than me, since she'd given her kids $20 each.
