I regift if I think someone would like it. Like, would TRULY enjoy it. I've given my mom candles with fragrances I don't like but I know she does.
I was going to get DD's bf a gift card to Wawa; turn out I got 3 from students this week, so I gave one to him.
Sometimes I tell people it's a regift. It's a simple "hey, my MIL got this for me, and it made me think of you. Would you like it?" (That's less a "regift" than a "re-home" lol cuz I tell them it was first meant for me.) My MIL is obsessed with getting me stuff with lemons on it cuz she once (years ago) saw me looking at, like, a kitchen towel with lemons on it. What she didn't know was I wasn't buying it for myself: it was for my mom. (Long story but she likes lemons.) Anyway, now, whenever MIL gifts me something with lemons, I regift it to my mom. Everybody's happy.
