Woman's dramatic reaction after finding sister's Xmas present in charity shop

Unwanted Christmas gifts can often end up at the local charity shop as by donating, you're doing a good deed while also ensuring that the present doesn't just gather dust in your home until this time next year.

On December 25, however, you may pretend the present was just what you wanted to prevent anyone's feelings from getting hurt - but in the Twixmas period, you'll scuttle off to the charity shop, assuming nobody will ever find out. But when one woman popped into the store nearest to her to pick up some bargains, she was seriously shocked to find something that she'd gifted a family member for Christmas.

Ellie Clarkson and her mum went charity shop shopping four days after Christmas, and they were both astounded to see a gift that had been given to Ellie's sister by her mum on December 25. To seek revenge for the cheeky move, the pair decided to pull a hilarious prank on Ellie's sister, and she posted it to her TikTok - @ellieclarkson3.

In the side-splitting video, Ellie showed the red handbag her mum had bought for her sister for Christmas - they spied it in their local Sue Ryder store. Over a picture of the handbag, Ellie wrote: "Hang on, isn't that the bag my mum bought my sister for Christmas 4 days ago?"

Then, the prank unfolded as they took pictures of the accessory and decided to get them printed, with Ellie explaining: "So we decided to send her some photos of what she was missing. With a little note." Ellie can then be seen writing: "Why don't you want me?"

The cheeky duo then sealed the pictures and the note in an envelope, posting it through her front door for her to discover whilst Ellie wore a balaclava so she could remain anonymous. She can then be seen running back to the car to join her mum, the getaway driver. The video then skips to a picture of her mum holding the handbag, and it reads: "Stay tuned for part 2 where the cursed bag turns up on her doorstep."

In the comments, people found the video hilarious but also felt sorry for the mum as they said they'd feel 'hurt' if someone did that to them. One wrote: "Can you imagine if she still has the bag and now she has two?", followed by a series of crying with laughter faces. Some others suggested how to take the prank further, commenting: "I would have bought the bag and left it somewhere in her house without telling her, she would think it is cursed!"
