So how do you deal with unwanted gifts?

Hello Tetra,
Congratulations on your 5 months! You've come a long way, and I feel, like others here, that you did the right thing regarding the bottle of wine.
I hope you're settling well into your new job, I'm happy to learn of your progress.
Happy Christmas to a fellow Irishwoman!

Okay, so I dropped the wine off at Grans. She thanked me and told me to hide it behind the couch for now as one of my aunts kind of has a problem with alcohol also, as in if it's there, it has to be finished right now kind of way...sorry I'm not explaining it very well...
So when the other one came in (who is not an alcoholic) I just explained and she smiled and said "thanks a lot...I will have a glass on Christmas Day"...problem solved!
Actually they all said I handled the situation well!
