Regifting- Savy or Grinchy?
Ask a Question
How does everyone feel about regifting? If you couldnt or didnt want to offend by returning a gift to store is it better to regift it or should you just be thankful you got a present?
Not usually but Iv done it in past , My grandma was well known for it lol. Just remember not to regift to the person you received from
As long as you're careful not to gift it back to who gave it to you, and not to anyone they know (in case they find out), and you think the person you're regifting to will like it, there's no problem at all.
Every year a bag of things we have received go back up the attic with the trimmings and then when we get everything down in december we have a bag of gifts ready to wrap for people
I dont do it very often,but i did it last year,as i hate anything to go to waste,i give the odd thing to charity shop too if its something i really wouldnt use.But mostly yes im grateful for my presents.
It’s savvy, and definitely one way to ensure you always have a gift ready for whomever and for whatever occasion that pops up. All gifts are well received
Regifting is very sensible. Much better to pass it on or give to a charity shop if you’re given something you’re not keen on. I once threw away a Christmas present my mother in law gave me as I couldn’t imagine even a charite being able to sell! I couldn’t lie by saying ”how wonderful or lovely” but managed to say “thank you”.
I haven't had to refit anything in ages as I'm never given anything I don't like or won't use. If I did get something I didn't like or couldn't use then I would probably give it to the charity shop or to people who collect presents to give to people at Christmas who wouldn't get anything otherwise.
