Ever Been RE-GIFTED??

Here are some rules to keep in mind if you have a penchant to re-gift--

Good Advice for the Potential Regifter

You can regift something only if it meets the following criteria, says Jodi R.R. Smith, author of From Clueless to Class Act: Manners for the Modern Woman ($10, amazon.com).

  • It is new and has never been opened.
  • It’s something you would have bought for the person anyway.
  • The original giver and the new recipient don’t know each other at all.
  • You’ve completely rewrapped it.
The only exception to the above? “If you’re giving an heirloom that you know the recipient will love,” says Smith.

Wise advice!!

Happy Friday the 13th.
