Gifts Gone Bad

Eight in 10 Canadians say they don't need anything for Christmas this year—that includes the stars.

Three Canadian celebrities share their most useless Christmas presents and their favourite items from the World Vision Gift Catalogue.

Erica EhmErica Ehm
TV personality and writer

Most Useless Gift
"The most recent [useless gift] was a hook that attaches to your jeans, with a little plastic clip to hold a bottle of water. So you can have a bottle of water attached to your hip and banging into your side—ridiculous."

Ehm’s Gift Catalogue Pick
Supply Two Classrooms

Rick CampanelliRick Campanelli
Senior reporter for Entertainment Tonight Canada

Most Useless Gift
"The most useless gift I have received recently was a nose-hair trimmer.

“There are so many great gifts in the Catalogue, if I could afford it, I would try to buy every item in it!"

Campanelli’s Gift Catalogue Pick
Supply a Medical Clinic

Marci Ien

Most Useless Gift
"When Gund teddy bears were all the rage, someone got me a Christmas bear. He was lovely, but I can't even tell you where he is now."

Warm Blankets
