What’s the worst Christmas gift you’ve ever received?

“I got a pack of gummy bears once.”

Cheryl Miyahara

“I think the worst was getting a really hot pink jacket. Because for one thing, I am not a hot pink person. It was really fuzzy and hot pink so it was one of the worst combos possible.”

Matthan Meijia

Hometown: Kapolei

“I think two years ago at a workplace Secret Santa I got Victoria Secret gift cards (laughs).”

“For the most part, if someone gives you something, it’s not really good or bad. Off the top of my head, I can’t think of anything.”
