Do you Re-Gift? - GoFuckYourself.com

KRL · 12-25-2003, 07:50 AM

Just watching CNN and they said 30% of people take gifts they got from someone else that they don't like and rewrap it and give it to someone else on their list.

2/3rds of re-gifters are women.

The wealthier you are the more you do it.

Good idea

kenny · 12-25-2003, 08:05 AM

I am always giving and not receiving. So I never really had the re-gift option. I am still trying to figure out what they mean by it's better to give then receive. It just doesnt add up

Re-wrapping as we speak.

Vitasoy · 12-25-2003, 08:40 AM

I do it all the time

DeadFidel · 12-25-2003, 08:43 AM

Ha Ha...I still have bottles of Old Spice circa 1988 that I give out!
Funny thought KRL.

Did you get mail about Men.com?

LOL! I can't say I've ever done that. But I have a friend that use to.

Two sponsors sent very generous gifts of primo Omaha steaks this holiday, shipped on dry ice. Being vegetarian for 15 years, they make an amusing regift for my meat-eating relatives. A tasty one too, from what I hear!

Pornwolf · 12-25-2003, 08:52 PM

I only regift holiday baskets.

Whoops, did I say that?

RoUgH AiR · 12-25-2003, 08:56 PM

I give wrapping paper AS a gift for cheap fuckers I know that do that!. Rat bastards!

Haha.. I have never re-gifted... Its such a cheap thing to do.... and the only gifts I receive are from my father and mother.. and we kind of tell each other how we "really" feel about it.. if we dont like it.. we will return it and get something else..

Head · 12-25-2003, 09:18 PM

I don't recall ever re-gifting! I may have done it but i just don't remember!

Pornwolf · 12-25-2003, 09:19 PM

Likely story.

Gemini · 12-25-2003, 09:22 PM

I haven't swapped gifts with anyone for years. We used to always see what everyone else wanted and go from there. It just always seemed silly to get something that odds are, the people wouldn't like or use very often.

No one turns down sweet shit they can eat. This is why I regift gift baskets only. I normally start getting them a week before Christmas which gives me time to make the fed ex run 3 days before.

tootie · 12-25-2003, 09:40 PM

I've only done it once. I had an acquaintence that got me a gift and I hadn't gotten her anything so I gave her a gift that I'd gotten from someone else. I already knew what they'd given me, but I hadn't unwrapped it yet, so I just slipped the tag off when she wasn't looking and gave it to her. It sucked, too, because I really wanted to keep it and the gift she got me sucked. *sigh* LOL

Looks like a good holiday for KRL. Now I call that a Christmas persent. Have a few domain names on ice... Oh, I hope this is a sign of the times. Domain names increasing in value that is.

Suggest KRL buys his tax guy something special. Wouldn't regift on that one

WiredGuy · 12-25-2003, 10:17 PM

I don't usually get many gifts so those I do get stuff from I like to keep.
