Maybe you’ve heard a few nightmare tales about regifting or lived them yourself. Ever received a present that has a gift tag with someone else’s name? That’s probably the No. 1 regifting goof.
But there are ways to pull off a regift successfully especially in 2020, when our in-person shopping and gift-giving has been reduced, and any present feels like a bright spot in a tough year.
Some items, of course, shouldn’t be regifted. Don’t regift anything that’s been opened even if the item inside wasn’t used. If the item was homemade for you, like a knitted scarf or jar of jam, don’t pass that on. Never hand over out-of-date technology, even if it’s unused.

Giving is not a competitive sport. Fight the notion that higher price always means deeper appreciation. However humble, a carefully chosen gift that reflects the recipient’s personality and interests is impressive enough.
