Do you ever regift?
What’s your take on asking for a receipt if a gift doesn’t fit?
-
78.8% Yes! It's better to regift what I don't need

21.2% No. It's the thought and effort that matters
Response to regifting presents
My mind tends to wander:
I do not see any problem with regifting it back to the person who gave it, they obviously liked it. In fact, that might work out well as you buy the present you want, then gift it to someone you know who will gift it back.
Perfect, no decision needs to be made about Xmas presents
