Here are ten useful phrases for responding to Christmas presents you would
rather not have received:
1. Of all the gifts I’ve ever received . . .
2. My word! What a gift.
3. Wow! This won’t last long at my house.
4. If I hadn’t put on so much weight recently it would have fit perfectly.
5. Goodness, I hope I never lose this. We’re always losing things around
here.
6. It’s great, but I’m worried about the envy it may create.
7. Just my luck to get this when I promised to give all my gifts to charity
this year.
8. Unfortunately, I am about to enter Witness Protection program.
9. Frankly, I don’t deserve this.
10. Really, you shouldn’t have.
