Oprah had show on recently about people who save the gifts they don't like and recycle them the next year to other friends - general feeling was it was tacky and cheap - I have a friend who does this - I have told her I ever get one my gifts back that's the end of exchanging with her - we got a small painting one year (looked like paint by numbers... of animals...I couldn't tell the horse from the cat) from a neighbor who really considered herself an artist (unlike the real McCoy Arlene) She is now deceased so it went to Goodwill -
