Yankee Gift Swap

Instead of taking those gifts you really, really don't want to the thrift store after Christmas -- doesn't it usually happen that someone just doesn't understand your taste? In Yankee-land people often have an after-Christmas get-togethers and swap gifts that they just don't want, can't use, don't like ...

Let's do that this January. Send that gift that's all wrong for your taste to someone else. It's not a question of whether that other someone likes such things, it's a matter of getting it out of your house. If you partner hates the thing too, s/he MUST rate you 5 for doing the swap. She can then take it to her thrif shop, dump, next door neighbor next Christmas, whatever.But tastes vary, your partner may LOVE it and you might LOVE what you receive. Take a chance.
