Are they at least $48 tasty? Man, those are pricey. That holiday gift buying style does seem pretty shitty, given the way it can be taken advantage of. Seems like a prime opportunity for messing with them though. For example, my cousin desperately wanted rollerblades (this was in the '90's, of course) and so our uncle bought the best ones available, then took them out and put a pair of girl's panties (I assume they were new and un-worn) and put them in the box with something to simulate the correct weight. My cousin was so elated when he unwrapped the box and then so crushed when he opened it that he actually started to cry. Good one, uncle P. My cousin got the skates a bit later. I bet he'd stop being pissed off about it if we all stopped laughing about it, but y'know, family.
