Are You A Cheapskate Gift Giver?
"Are you a cheapskate gift giver? Do you recycle gifts? If so, you are definitely not alone, according to a recent BizRate Research survey conducted of online shoppers for comparison shopping search site Shopzilla."
We've all heard about your best friend's cheapskate grandparent who gave them a used pair of socks. 8O But now it's time to share your experiences. Have you ever gotten a gift that you just tossed in the trash? Or have you *gulp* been a giver of such things yourself? I'm awful at figuring out gifts, but if I can't, I usually send somebody a gift certificate -- hassle-free and they're sure to get something useful out of it.
(Oh, and by the way, for those of you that celebrate a gift-giving holiday at this time of year, your time to get a gift's about up. Maybe it's time to get your loved ones a Pocket PC. Certainly better than socks!  )
