You can always gag re-gift that lovely sweater. My friends and I have this hideous santa tree topper that someone got as a present one year from a random relative. We pass it around as a "special gift" with a little tag reading who got it when every holiday season. We know someone is going to end up with Crack Head Santa (as we've dubbed him), but we never know who.
I think people give out bath sets when they don't know what else to give said recipient. Depending on who it's from, I always take it as sort of a unintentional compliment. "Ah. A bath set. I weird out my creepy Aunt Gertrude so much, she didn't know what else to get me. Good."

If your friends have an odd sense of humor ...
