Steps
步骤

STEP 1 Keep track
1.追踪

Keep careful track of who gave you what—otherwise you might end up re-gifting to the person who gave you the present in the first place.Also note everyone who saw you receive the gift and scratch them off the potential recipient list.
小心记录谁送了你什么礼物——否则可能出现把礼物物归原主的尴尬局面ytz@%N~YV7&jA。还要记录下有哪些人看到你收到这份礼物，把他们从接收者的名单上去除t2)FHPG]sI%sF@.^!。

STEP 2 Be discerning
2.眼光敏锐

Decide what past gifts can be recycled. If a store-brand item is very old, the person might try to return it and discover it has been stocked for years.

There’s a difference between a recycled gift and a hand-me-down. Sorry, but even if you’ve only used it or worn it once, it’s not suitable for re-gifting.

STEP 3 Beware gift cards
3.注意礼品卡

Carefully examine each item for a gift card. Needless to say, if the person opens his present and finds a note addressed to you, the jig is up.

STEP 4 Consider appropriateness
4.考虑是否合适

Consider carefully whether the re-gift is appropriate. If it's clearly out of whack with the re-giftee's style and interests, they're apt to guess it was not originally chosen with them in mind.
认真考虑想要转送的礼物是否合适9fRK1w=4e[^7%G7)。如果完全不符合对方的风格或兴趣，他们就会猜测这份礼物本身就不是特意为他们选择的*.+(+tXJ,tQ。

Some gifts might be so inappropriate or atrocious that they’d work as gag gifts. Pass them along, have a laugh, and let the new recipient figure out what to do with them.

STEP 5 Keep distance between source and re-giftee
5.原来送你礼物的人和新的接收者之间保持距离

Make sure there are several degrees of separation between the person who gave you the gift and the new recipient. You don't want the gift turning up in a place the re-giftee frequents.

STEP 6 Re-gift again!
6.再次重新赠送

If you sense the person doesn’t like the gift, offer to return it before they can begin asking about receipts and return policies. Then go back to your re-gift closet for another treasure.
