Ah yes, the act of "re-gifting". Everything I've received so far I've loved and used with the exception of one gift from a coworker years ago. In fact, I'm no longer in touch with her at all since she left the firm. I think the gift was a bath set of some kind and yes, I'm another person who bathes only when and if necessary. I always take shower. So after I unwrapped it and appreciated it, I knew it would be my first recycling project and tried to think of someone would would truly use it. I carefully put on a sticker whom it was from (just in case I forgot the next Christmas and sent it back to the same person... ) Next Christmas it got wrapped up for a friend of mine. The new recipient when on and on how she loved it so I knew it was a good thing to do. Besides the recipient is low income with two children and that is something she would never, ever buy for herself.

Now that sucks....plain and simple.
