I am the queen of regifting. That book has made it around New York City all though the regift process. My aunt, who is in her 80's, never regifts even though she has an attic full to the rafters. Look out, it's a regift!

regifting is when you receive a rubbish, thoughtless present from someone, so instead of using it, or throwing it away, you save it until next year, wrap it up and give it to the same person who gave it to you.
