I, too, got a Casio from the grandparents. It lived a long life. My favorite gift was a Caboodle that had Navy perfume and some Clinique sample sized makeup in it.
I...uh...um...wow. Mayonnaise. And a Webelos handbook. And here the most random Christmas gift I'd ever seen was Imodium. But that just takes it all.
