Do you have some items that you want to give away as presents this year? Then, you need to check out this guide on how to re-gift like a pro.
Instead, take the presents that you know you will never use and re-gift them to someone else. They will never know!
The top rule that every re-gift expert must know and follow is to never give the gift back to the original gifter. That is an awkward situation and confrontation you never want to be part of. A general rule of thumb is to not re-gift presents from family to other family members or close friends. Instead, give out gifts to people who do not know the original gifter.
Take the gift to the next level by adding extra touches. Add candy, jewelry or even stickers to give the present a new life. Plus, it shows your receiver your personality, and that is what they are truly looking for in a gift.
Make the gift your own by rewrapping it. This is one of the easiest ways to re-gift any item you receive. Plus, if you do re-gift in the same family, they won’t recognize the wrapping paper. Pick out your favorite wrapping supplies and get to work.
While it may seem convenient and affordable to re-gift to everyone, it is best to do it in moderation. Re-gift to a few people in each one of your groups and purchase for the other people. This way you do not look like a total cheapskate and have thoroughly thought about who needs what.
Some gifts have life spans or expirations. Do not wait for months or years to re-gift an item. Items like candles, soaps, foods, drinks, and seasonal objects are best to be given right away. Therefore, make sure to give these presents to your family and friends before venturing off to items that will not go bad.
By following the steps above, you should be able to re-gift without any issues. What do you like to re-gift? Let us know. We would love to hear from you!
