The rules of re-gifting

Although many etiquette experts always rule against re-gifting, sometimes the opportunity may be too tempting to pass up.  If you choose to re-gift, be cautious and keep these rules in mind.

-Only re-gift new, unopened items in their original packaging

- Only re-gift to totally separate parties.  Never give a re-gift to someone if they know the original gift-giver.

- Only re-gift if you’re sure the person will actually enjoy their present.

-Never re-gift, unique or homemade items.

-Don’t make re-gifting a habit.
