It's that time of year again - when the airwaves are filled with the sounds of "CLAP ON! CLAP OFF!" and "Ch-ch-ch-Chia!". Have any of you actually given or gotten either one as a gift?

I've known a few people who have received them as gag gifts. Last year one of our supervisors at work was given a Chia Shrek. :rofl:

Does that mean if someone gives you some marbles you might lose them?

Chia and clappers aren't my thing, so I'd probably regift them to Goodwill or some other thrift shop--or if I knew someone very elderly I'd offer the clapper to them first - unwrapped

Neither gift are my thing, so I'd probably regift them to Goodwill or some other thrift shop.
Thats no use, cause anyone who would buy one anywhere is INSANE!

well I don't care for them either, but apparently some people do.... and at least Goodwill would get something out of it. But I'd opt for giving it away free first if I could find someone....

LOL true, but whoever would get it,probably wouldnt keep it


I wonder what happens if you accidentally washed your hair with that Chia stuff LOL

If no one liked them, the company wouldn't still be around after a zillion years!! :lol:

That's true, its just that I personally don't go gaga over them...never liked Pez candies or Etch a Sketches either...so...guess what I'm basically saying I'd want someone who could appreciate it to have it free or at a reduced price.
