Is a chocolate selection box a rubbish present to give to people?

Question

I have gotten people selection boxes this year and feel like it’s a rubbish present

Some people (like me) are not good at picking out gifts. Chocolate is something that almost everyone likes, even if it's not as personal as some other gifts. I think it's a good safe gift that isn't taking much of a chance like most other gifts. A more personal gift might be better, but I think not many people are good at picking out a personal gift, which makes it chancy.

It's definitely not "rubbish".

It wouldn't be a good present for me because I could eat the whole box in about 2 minutes. I can't have any sweets around because I can't stop eating them, especially chocolate!

But I don't see why it's a bad present for someone else. Why is it a "rubbish" present? I think some people would really like it.

It's a nice gesture and little fill-in gifts are difficult for people to figure out. Some people just have a gift for it. Take it in good spirits and give it to someone else if you don't want it.

Lol it really is. Giving someone a box of chocolates is like giving them life, you never know what you are gonna get! I'll still eat them all ^^'

MisterWack · Answer

I love it!  It is delicious, doesn’t take up space (since you eat it), and if you don’t like a flavor give it to a family member & eat the ones you know you’ll like.

Lindor truffles or Ghirardelli are better in my opinion, but See's are acceptable. Protip: give them a bottle of a bigger red wine to accompany it for maximum effect.

Rubbish  I'd say, but I'll sympathize with whoever gifting me chocolates because it means they're  like me: They suck at finding gifts. It feels good 😂

AviatorTom · Answer

Not at all. I love chocolates, and the option to select one from many makes it fun... and delicious. If you don't want your chocolate boxes, feel free to send them my way. 😉

LadyBecks · Answer

I think it's a nice gift. They can put it out when guests come over. I love gifts like that. I think you did a good job.

DeeDeeDeVour · Answer

I especially don't like a box of Sees candies.  I wouldn't give that nor do I want to receive that.

KittyKat90210 · Answer

I don't think it's a bad gift. I got one box this year that's a high-end brand I'd never heard of before and I really appreciated it.

MarjorieJ · Answer

You're overthinking it. Just never give those petrified fruit cakes, and you'll be fine.

TonyMetal___86 · Answer

It ain't rubbish at all, is it possible to receive a box of scottish chocolate and when i open it, miss lauren comes with the chocolates 🤣🤣

FunnyButNotFunnyHaHa · Answer

It's not a rubbish present if they like chocolate. It's a rubbish present if they're trying to lose weight.

bowenw · Answer

I'd gladly have chocolates for a gift. I'd avoid the dollar store ones, but a nice box always seems to be appreciated.

Pohjolan · Answer

Depends on the person in question. Not a good choice if its just going to be left uneaten until it spoils. You'd be better off giving a large box of protein bars to some people.

I always appreciate chocolate. Oct-Jan is typically my free for all, diet wise. Don't be giving me junk for in July though.

Nikki1989 · Answer

I receive several every year, and they are no use to me as I hate chocolate.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

Only if it's shit chocolate or they can't eat chocolate. It is a generic gift though.

PrettyCrumblBb · Answer

I don't like chocolate.  But others like it. If I gave chocolate as a gift I would pair it with another gift.

Not if they like chocolate. I don't, but I have several friends who do so it is fine.
