AYRT

Oh, it wasn't unsolicited. They asked my parents to buy the stuff, with specific instructions for what kind to buy :/

They never expected it immediately (so my parents didn't go too out of their way to buy it), and they asked at times when my parents could afford it, and they always paid up. The glaring problems with this for me were that the stuff was really, really unecessary, and my parents always agreed.

They could have bought similar but not exact stuff themselves (!!!), and without giving too much away, the stuff is of little practical use. And every time my parents would discuss what to say to their requests, I'd point it out. But they'd say no, it's ok because...family?
