I never look down at any gift I get. If someone is taking the time to actual think about me and get me something, I always value that over what the bobble they choose happens to be.
I generally don't want many material things to begin with. That's the good thing about not growing up with much. I see grown-ass men complaining about not getting video games or the right cellphone they wanted, it's pathetic.
Even the basic office supplies and small tchotchkes my dad bought me have some meaning now that he's passed away.
On topic: nothing really, Gifts are an affirmation that one thought you were worthy enough to be thought of at that point in time. Whether you wanted said Item or not, is a moot point. "It's the thought that counts" is really that, and all that should matter.
