I would've loved a Wii for my wedding. But, we got a lot of houseware stuff and crap the wife liked. All I got was a new boss.

I hear you. Funniest gift we got was ... a set of pans. And why is that funny? They were given to this woman my wife stayed with like 3-4 years before ... and she rewrapped - well, regifted them to us. I was pissed ... nearly tossed them, but my wife kinda liked them. Nuts ...

Were they used? If so I'd be pissed too... so far most of the junk we've gotten has all been cooking related as well. I guess it's a good thing that I do the cooking....?

They weren't used, but the box looked well traveled - it was obvious it was a gift from someone. And my wife told me she remembers when someone gave the woman the gift. We ended up tossing them.

I tell you - I know why folks give housewares and crap for gifts - because most bachelors don't even own a pot! I had two and a frying pan my mom gave me. And the pots were from WalGreen in Orlando ... LOL.

Now, we have more pots and pans and dishes than Rachel Ray.

Still, getting a video game system such as a Wii would make a lot of sense these days, because it's an interactive console. Kinda like how couples in the '70s got Twister or those romantic dice ... hmmmm
