Re-gifting!!!?

Did you ever re-gift something? If so, what was the gift, who gave it to you and who did you give it to? Were you found out?

I re-gifted a toy that was sent to my kids. The company sent an extra toy. My sis said she wasn't charged for it so I should just keep it. I gave it to another kid for his birthday. He hadn't been to my house so he never saw the toy.

    I regifted little hair brush / makeup sets that my kids never opened (they got them in their stocking last Christmas), and I gave them to my daughters friend in addition to another gift for a birthday. But I did buy them. lol

    Don't feel guilty, there is nothing wrong with re-gifting. Just don't re-gift something if you don't remember who gave it to you. It could be a little embarrassing if you gave it back to the one who gave it to you.

    Once anything is given to you you may do whatever you want with it, including giving it away!

    In my opinion I think that is ok seeing as how the kid never saw the gift at your house. Now this is not something that I would run and tell everybody cause if you think about it it is kinda tacky!!!!!!!!

    that's fine. we are gonna give out one of my son's toddler toys cuz he outgrew it and use it as a christmas present for my friends little 1 year old daughter when she visits. They haven't been to our house yet and the toy is very good for the brain and to keep busy.
