What's the Worst Valentine's Day Gift You've Received?

From a sewing machine to a can of air, women have received all kinds of bad gifts.

Depending on your view, Valentine's Day is either a fun holiday to show someone how much you care about them, or a Hallmark holiday created to increase card sales. Whatever you think of the holiday, don't forget to give something to your loved ones.

But be careful: you don't want your gift to end up on the receiver's "worst gift list." 

A story posted on iVillage includes "worst" gifts such as a sewing machine, tickets to a death metal concert and even a poinsettia. I even know someone who had to talk their friend out of buying a lamp for his sweetie for Valentine's Day.
