Have you gone over the things you got for Christmas last year?

I don't celebrate christmas but if talking about gifts yes we do recycle the gifts we have and give them to others. I believe that it is a very practical way plus we don't have to waste money to buy the new one. If we don't use the items and it for sure in a good condition then it is not wrong to give it to others as a present. So we will not end up to keep all unused things at home. This will require some space and we don't have any space left at home.(^^)(^^)

I think that anything useful that we don't need, we should recycle, even it is a gift. But as Christmas gift, we must make sure it is still in perfect condition and the look presentable. I have not received many gifts so I don't have any to recycle. But things that I don't use I will usually pass to my family members who has a use for it or donate to the charities.

i have done that in the past and do so but i also make a lot of gifts which saves money too.

Last year was one of those years where I got everything that I wanted. I think really if there was some things that I didn't want that I got, I would have thrown them out in the yearly garage sale and tried to make some money off of them, rather to try and re-gift them. That is just what would be on my mind and there have been some past Christmas's where I did, mostly somethings that I'll never use. I don't think I would ever re-gift things for the simple reason as there are times where I don't remember who got me what a week later half of the time, not to mention almost a year later. And that would be rather embarrassing beyond all belief if I had accidentally given someone the same gift. Thankfully there are very few gifts that I got that really have been stinkers in recent years, so good on that front.

Guilty. I had received too many gifts and yes, I am recycling them. I always draw up a list between Christmas and New year. My inventory includes two notebooks full of names and gift descriptions. I never felt guilty recycling because I don't exactly have enough storage space and I personally, believe that it is always the thought that counts. As for my friends, they're just too happy that they received something - as ling as they don't know who's the original sender. He he he

hello, I did not do it because I dont have stuff that is available for give away for my friends. So, I buy a new one and I choose people that I give something because I dont have actually a budget. But maybe I will just try what you suggest that I have to recycle if it is not that old much and useful for others.
