For me, there were several dollar store trinkets that already broke, and one toy for my kids that was a huge sparkly styrofoam mess waiting to happen, so I threw it out rather than curse anyone else with it.

I think I accidentally threw away a Starbucks gift card someone gave me, because I've been unable to locate it since Christmas :(

EDIT: LMFAO the mods removed my reply to the Scrooge below me because I said "I hope you get coal next year" XD

My partners job gave him a couple of the keg gift cards one year, it was over $100 value. We held on to them for a special occasion. We moved, it was my birthday, made plans with friends and excited to get steak paid for by his shitty employee.

Those fucking gift cards have never shown up again. Just gone into the void.

Haha wow! They also removed the one where they accused you of insulting people and the continued with a paragraph of insults towards you.

Oh, they finally removed that? Wow indeed. I didn't find anything report-worthy, but hey
