what you do with all gifts from grandma, or other people who are addicted to giving needless, redundant gifts: wrap it back up and give it to someone else.

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.
Christmas
Me: Mark, a can opener.... Thanks...
<next year>
Me: Here Mark, here's your Christmas present.
Mark: A can opener? How dare you fucking regift me this!

the act of regifting a recieved gift, however an additional five to ten dollars is spent to upgrade the gift to a larger size or better make. this in turn makes the giver feel more better about the regifting.
Jeff- "I'll be right back, I gotta go to the store to finish up my Christmas shopping."
Pops- "Whatcha gettin?"
Jeff- "Gonna take this flashlight back and get a bigger one. I love upgrade regifting.
Pops- "Didn't I get you a flashlight last year for Christmas?"
Pops- "Whatcha gettin?"
Jeff- "Gonna take this flashlight back and get a bigger one. I love upgrade regifting.

A person who considers a gift and tries to guess weather it's been regifted or not, if they decide it is, they then snub a gift/slag off the giver to others, regardless of proof. Regifting is dificult to prove.
A. "That Hat I got from Ben was regifted, the tight arse."
B. "You're such a Regifting Snob, It's the thought that counts, leave him alone."
B. "You're such a Regifting Snob, It's the thought that counts, leave him alone."

When a cheap person regifts something and the reciever unwraps it to discover it is blatantly secondhand.
My friend regifted my DD an Easter egg sticky-taped to a dirty coffee mug, which had coffee residue and spoon marks in the base of the mug. Regift fail.

Application of various disreputable and/or dishonest strategies, employed by the giver in a regifting situation, calculated to deceive the recipient into a) believing that the gift was not known by the giver to be undesirable at the time of giving (e.g., broken, malfunctioning, diseased, leaking, putrid, hazardous, malodorous, untrained, etc.), while, b) concealing the fact that the giver has already received his purchase price back through application of some other white trash artifice. Closely related to white trash rebate, white trash refund, white trash warranty claim, white trash exchange, etc.
Claudette, Claude's double 3/4 cousin, would not have been hesitant to complain that the "resting" gerbil he gave her on her 7th birthday hadn't moved in 3 days, had she known that she was the victim of a white trash regifting and that Claude had already obtained a refund plus a "disposal fee" thrown in as a bonus.
