"Re-homing" Christmas gifts



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

A UK study says that 4 billion British Pounds ($7.8 B) worth of Christmas gifts were unwanted. Many of those gifts end up on eBay, hopefully finding their way to someone who can use the items. Besides a few sweaters or shirts that were just not for me, I can't say that I remember anything specific, though one sweater that my father in law received in recent years certainly should have been re-homed. The infamous sweater was a polyester winter sweater that had a big "V" made of suede on the front and looked like something that you might have found in a window behind the Iron Curtain back in the old Soviet Union days. For those of you who saw "Wings of Desire", the sweater would have been the perfect complement to the famous jacket worn in that movie by the angel.

So what's the worst gift you ever received and what did you do with it?
