Slippers are Britain’s worst Christmas present – according to a panel of shopping experts.
Slippers came in at number one in a top ten list of gifts to avoid.
The business intelligence and mystery shopping company Retail Active asked 1300 people from its consumer panel to name their least popular presents.
Slippers were closely followed by Iron or Ironing Board and incorrectly sized underwear.
Retail Active’s managing director, Julian Chamberlain said: “Even if your partner has saying they need a new pair of slippers all year, Christmas is not the time to treat them.
“With wrong sized underwear, if it is too big or too small, you are in big trouble either way.”
The list of the UK’s Top Worst Christmas presents is:-
1. Slippers
2. Iron or ironing board – or both
3. Incorrectly sized underwear
4. Cheap perfume
5. Tool box
6. Bubble bath or bath salts
7. Nose trimmer
8. Kitchen untensils
