I have an aunt like that. No thought whatsoever, whatever she grabs off the clearance/trash pile is it.

She gets off the wall stuff to, one year my dad got a "hunting hat" , it was a fluffy Russian-looking thing that he would never wear.

The best one is one we still laugh about. My poor dad, again!, got the doosie.
He got a too small flannel shirt that was mis-sewn so you couldn't get one arm into it!
She said she was going to replace it but never has, years later.....lol
We take bets on what is coming next!

Glad I moved away and don't have to wonder what I will get next....lol
