The pressure surrounding Christmas can be overwhelming. Holiday parties, family gatherings, shopping for the perfect gift, and of course having the best christmas decorations on the block. But the most pressure of all comes from your response when receiving a terrible gift. I have created a ready to go list of responses you can use.
How did you know I didn’t have any of these!
I am speechless…. Thank you so much
Where did you get this? I have never seen anything like it.
Oh what a creative idea!
You know I don’t usually like these but this is great!
I almost bought this for myself last week!
Oh you shouldn’t have.
My friends are going to be so jealous.
In order to be successful you must remember to be enthusiastic, but not overly enthusiastic or they will get suspicious. Hold back the tears. And if you can’t keep from crying make sure to pawn them off as tears of joy. Most importantly have a holiday drink on hand. Everything seems better with a glass of egg nog!

I’m going to keep this list handy for reference.I usually just pretend I swallowed wrong and start to cough until I can leave the wrong.
They’re catching on after about the thirtieth coughing fit. Great post!
Let me if they work out better than your cough strategy!
Excellent list. I hope I don’t have to use it. 🙂
I already have three times 🙂
