Do any re-gifting this year? Confession is good for the soul.
I got a really lovely, expensive box of chocolate this year from my supervisor. I loved it, but we get the same box every year for my MIL, so instead of eating one and purchasing one, I passed it along.

1. I got something I will re-gift
of course I'll need to wait for a tacky gift exchange. Striped slipper socks with bulbous cows attached on the ankle. I am so not into cute.

2. Only at a 'Dirty Santa' Party
I passed along an uncensored Jerry Springer VHS tape that I received a couple of years ago at a similar soirée a few years ago.

4. Got a Panasonic CD/MP3 player from my employer.
It's kinda big, with detachable speakers. We sent it to Mrs. V.'s brother. I don't do MP3s and we have CD players coming out our ears. Mrs. V.'s brother is brain damaged and doesn't have many things like this. When she was home in October she bought him a DVD player.

my sister gave me a ceramic santa filled with hard candy. i rewrapped it after she left and gave it to an elderly neighbor who loves that kind of stuff.

7. Okay, we got a bag of really expensive coffee, but I don't drink it and my
husband is now on decaf only, so we added it to my neighbor's annual gift of cookies, fudge, fruit, et als.

I still have the same condiments from a gift basket last year, so I gave the basket to a friend.
