Mobile What is your worst or most Naff souvenir

This is mine, my daughter bought it from Amsterdam because it was so bad but funny and it has Mickey on. Don't think Google translate was working very well for the person who set up the machine 😂



Have any of you bought any or been given any or just us that buy for the giggle

Drew the line at buying one, but I thing the Crucifix Fish we saw in some of the 192 tatt shops would take some beating!

I bought a magnet for my friend that says Menorca and in the bottom of the pic says Costa del Sol. I bought it on purpose as we have a competition that’s been running for a few years now to buy each other the cheapest and rubbish souvenir we can find on holiday.

You get bonus points if you can get it in to their house and on display without them noticing.

Before we had kids, we went to Egypt and went quad biking in the desert, (didnt cost much and was ace) with the booking it advertised a free memory souvenir. We thought it was more than likely a photo or something like that.


It was presented to us at the end..

It was a 35mm camera film tub which was full of sand from the desert...

just like one of these below... didnt know to laugh or just say thank you

My sister and I have done that for a long time. I like the idea of the extra points. Boy have we had some corkers over the years. The donkey salt and pepper set in compromising positions. The Greek coasters you wouldn't use if your mother in law was round. The working plastic Venetian gondola. There's been a lot of tat!

When we went to India for a family wedding my dad said bring me back the worst Taj Mahal ornament you can find. We spent the whole time there looking for the naffest thing and brought back a very tacky fake marble thing that does not do the beauty of the place any justice at all! At the airport my carry on bag was hand searched and even the Indian security office burst out laughing when he saw it. It had pride of place in my parents lovely display cabinet st home lol! 😂

I remember a neighbour coming back with one of those in the 70s and me having a strop that we couldn't ever afford to go abroad as I wanted one 😂😂 I would have been about 10 😊

We went away once and my brother went off on his own to look around. He came back with an ornament of a troll smoking something dodgy and gave it to my mum. She loved it and went out to buy more of them. To this day I still don’t know if my brother bought it on purpose because of what it was smoking, nor do I know if my mum was aware of what it was smoking at the time
