Lizzie Grant, professional organiser and founder of Declutter on Demand, thinks regifting could help you make space and save cash
“With the increasing need for us all to live more environmentally-friendly lives, giving and receiving second-hand and preloved gifts is rising in popularity. Regifting unwanted presents to those you know will enjoy them keeps things out of landfill and puts them back into use, contributing to the circular economy and avoiding waste,” says Grant.Lizzie Grant.

Avoid this, Grant says by having “a dedicated box of unwanted presents you want to regift with a post-it note on each item of who gave it to you, when you received it, and who you are thinking of regifting it to.“This avoids the embarrassment of regifting a present to the original giver. Aim to regift outside of the original giver’s circle of family and friends.”“Do not give a regifted present in its original wrapping.
“This way, you avoid the awkwardness of regifting a present to someone who is shocked you would spend that much on them,” Grant says.Did you know with a Digital subscription to Yorkshire Post, you can get access to all of our premium content, as well as benefiting from fewer ads, loyalty rewards and much more.
