No, I'm not stingy, I'm a re-gifter

We've all had them. Those presents that you rip open excitedly only to find something completely not your style and a million miles from anything you'd ever actually use. But you do know someone that would like it.

Re-gifting has been one of those awkward, is it, isn't it socially acceptable situations for many years. You want to give the item on to someone who will love it and use it but will people think you are being a bit tight?

Brain Pickings decided that enough was enough. They were going to remove the stigma of giving previously received pressies and make it into something cool and very acceptable. They designed a set of free tools for you to use to show everyone that you totally dig regifting. With its new logo that can be used on anything from wrapping paper to gift tags, you can openly declare your love for passing on presents that don't thrill you. And you encourage others to do the same.

Because a present is for life, not just for Christmas.

Show your friends and family you're a regifter (and bloomin' proud of it too!) and download the Regift logo.

P.S. If you want to buy a present that you just KNOW they'll love, then you want to give some Glove Love.
