@MeiChanski Hmmmm, not sure how to respond , laughing, hugs.
Yea, it usually sets off an alarm, so they might have deactivated it but not removed it. Who knows, new, busy? But if it’s not being given immediately, going back to Tesco with the receipt so they can remove it, is probably best. My in laws would be laughing about it saying oh gosh and it would just start a whole conversation. But we are older and know each other well. That could be awkward for some.
Funny story, his one sister can come up with the weirdest gifts. When we showed up one year and walked into their house there was this brightly painted lime green cement cactus with a plastic lizards and a couple of rocks, 3 feet tall sitting there. We both looked at each other and go what the heck is that. I’m sure you’ve guessed it, it was our Christmas gift for our back yard full of pine trees ???......the other sister got a cement rabbit for her yard and handed a foot that had broken off and said it got broken but you should be able to glue it back on. She was proud she had managed to find cement statuary for our yards.
We finally just got rid of the cactus in the garage sale before we moved. And it had been sitting in the garage for 25 years the whole time, but it was always good for a laugh and a smile when we saw it.
