Is It OK to Regift a Present?

Readers say…

Of course! Regift away!

“Regifting is a must! The gift should circulate until it lands in the place it belongs.”

COOPERBROSOFFICIAL

“If I already have a $75 candle that’s not my scent, why not give it to someone who’ll love it? That said, if it’s crap, it gets tossed.”

OHHIMATT

“You are free to do whatever you want with gifts given to you. Use, donate, regift!”

WHATIMEANTOSAY

Definitely not! Don’t be a monster!

“I prefer to explain the situation and ask the next recipient if they would like the item. That way it doesn’t feel deceptive, as if you chose this thing specifically for them.”
