How many unwanted presents did you get this Christmas?
Dealing with unwanted presents
Most people don’t do anything! Three in five consumers hold onto gifts they don’t want, according to a survey from Kijiji.com, a free online classifieds site.
The top reasons are:
they don’t want to hurt the feelings of the giver (60 percent)
they think they will eventually use the gift (51 percent)
it’s too much effort to return them to the store (33 percent)
If you can get past these hesitations, here are five things to do with unwanted, ill-fitting holiday presents.
1. Use an unwanted gift card to buy a gift for someone else. Think ahead to any birthdays, parties, or celebrations coming up in the next six months. Anybody retiring? Getting married? Having a baby?
2. Re-gift! Sometimes you’ll come across an appropriate recipient a few days later at another holiday function, but more likely you’ll stash an unwanted gift in your gift closet (a designated area at home for evergreen gifts). Make sure you remove anything that would indicate the item was re-gifted and do not mention you are re-gifting to the recipient, which is extremely rude. Some people feel re-gifting is tacky, but I say it’s better to re-gift than let a present go to waste!
3. Sell gift cards you’re not going to use, especially if you think the store has a chance of closing. Here is the low-down on the best sites to sell gift cards. PlasticJungle.com, GiftCardRescue.com or GiftCardBuyBack.com
4. Exchange the gifts for something you want. If you don’t have a receipt, head to the store ASAP. Without a receipt, you’ll only get credit for the current selling price. Macy’s is one of the few stores that embeds the sale price in a bar code sticker so you can get credit for exactly what the giver paid. A lot of retailers softened their return policies to make it easier on us consumers and some are giving as much as a month after the holiday to return and/or exchange.
5. Sell presents online. Craigslist, Kijiji, eBay, Amazon. The Internet is your oyster.

More Frugal things you can do to celebrate Christmas
1. Make candy. Our favorites are fudge and peanut brittle.
2. Make a Paper Mache snowman.
3. Simmer some hot cider. Or if you’re lazy like me buy it at Trader Joes, or just heat up some bottled cider.
4. Have a birthday party for Jesus. Make a cake, invite the neighborhood kids over, and have a party. For gifts, you could give time or make a commitment to read your Bible, pray…whatever you can think of!
5. Watch the Christmas specials on TV. My personal favorites are Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer, How the Grinch Stole Christmas, and A Charlie Brown Christmas.
6. Send a card with a Christmas postmark to someone special. You can have letters postmarked at the North Pole, Bethlehem, Noel, and many more interesting places.
7. Read The Best Christmas Pageant Ever with your family. If you’ve never read it, you should. It’s really funny!
8. Hang mistletoe. Then kiss your sweetie.
9. Make your own Christmas cards. Have everyone pitch in. Family Fun has some good ideas.
10. Write a Christmas letter, with everyone in the family telling their own story of the past year. Our friends do this. They start the letter with “Dad’s Turn” and work their way down to the youngest child’s turn. It’s fun to read everyone’s differing perspective on the past year.
11. Make a video and send it to far away relatives for Christmas. We did this for years. We’d sing songs, tell stories, and just have a good time. Our relatives appreciated seeing how the kids had grown over the year.
12. Make Christmas ornaments.
13. Take a walk and collect pine-cones, acorns and the like for decorations.
14. Make an Advent Calendar. You could make a simple paper calendar. Or if you’re more crafty, you could make something more complicated. There are many options.
15. Make a Jesse Tree.
16. Fix a special Christmas breakfast. I usually make the Land of Nod Cinnamon Buns and Christmas Breakfast Sausage Casserole. I like these recipes, because the bulk of the preparation is done the day before.
17. Hold an open house. Send invites to all your friends, telling them to stop by your house between the hours of two and five. Set out simple finger foods, and enjoy socializing.
18. Take your family’s picture in front of the Christmas tree. Make it a yearly tradition.
19. Send a card to a recovering U.S. Soldier. The soldiers have given so much for us. Help make their holidays a bit brighter by thanking them. The address is: A Recovering American soldier, c/o Walter Reed Army Medical Center, 6900 Georgia Avenue,NW,Washington,D.C. 20307-5001. Boomeyers, one of my commentators, has informed me that cards addressed to Any Soldier (as opposed to a real na me) will no longer be delivered due to security concerns. So I’m going to amend #48. Send a card to a U.S. soldier that you know. If you don’t know a U.S. soldier, consider making a donation to an organization that supports the troops. Or contact your local National Guard to see how you can help. Thanks, boomeyers, for correcting me.
20. Record your children singing their favorite Christmas carols. Children’s voices change so much over the years. Twenty years from now, you’ll be glad to have the recording.

Frugal things you can do to celebrate Christmas
Christmas is quickly approaching, and it’s time to start planning a frugal Christmas, to get less caught up in the urge to spend and put our focus where it belongs.
1. Read a Christmas story or book every day.
2. Celebrate Advent with an Advent Wreath. You can even make the wreath yourself. That’s more frugal than buying one..
3. Pray for people who send you Christmas Cards. A good time to do this is after dinner. Or pray for them during your advent time, if you’re using an advent calendar.
4. Attend the Crèche at the Orange Stake Center and your other Ward and Stake Christmas events.
5. Have a family slumber party in the living room. Pull out the sleeping bags and turn on the Christmas lights. Just enjoy being together as a family.
6. Go Christmas caroling. Grab some friends or just go as a family. Get to know your neighbors as you bless them with Christmas carols.
7. See the Christmas lights. Drive around your town and look at the decked out houses. Vote on which neighborhood has the best display.
8. Look at pictures from Christmas past. Pull out the photo albums. Tell your children about your Christmas celebrations as a child.
9. Do a Christmas puzzle together.
10. Bake Christmas cookies.
11. String popcorn.
12. Read the Christmas story. Read it straight out of the Bible, or use a bible storybook if you have young children.
13. Pick up some library books and study Christmas Traditions in other countries.
14. Make your own gifts. My personal favorites are gifts in a jar. Gift baskets are also fun. There are a ton of gift mixes at Food Gifts From Your Kitchen.
15. Participate in a charity. We like to fill shoe boxes for children the same ages as our children. Our children learn that Christmas is about giving, not getting.
16. Make paper snowflakes with your kids. If you want a real challenge, make a 3-D paper snowflake.
17. Make a paper chain to count down the days until Christmas. Alternate green and red construction paper. You can attach the chain to a paper cross or Christmas tree and hang it up on your child’s wall. Each night before bed take off a link. On Christmas Eve, the child takes off the last link, and then gets so excited that she can’t sleep. Oh wait…that happened to me. Hopefully it won’t happen to you. :)
18. Have a Christmas movie marathon. Get the movies from the library if you want to be really frugal. Some favorites are The Polar Express, Miracle on 34th Street, and A Christmas Story.
19. Invite some friends or family over for dinner. It doesn’t have to be formal. Just enjoy the company. Make it a potluck. Or have a soup night. Have everyone bring their favorite soup in a crock-pot.
20. Make a gingerbread house. You can try the ambitious way, or you can make one the easy way.
21. Visit a nursing home or an elderly shut in. The holidays can be a difficult time for those who have lost loved ones. Visit an elderly person with no family nearby. Bring some flowers, food, or a homemade Christmas card. It will brighten their day…and yours.
22. Attend your community tree-lighting ceremony. Many communities have them, and they are festive occasions. If you don’t mind the crowds, tree-lighting ceremonies can be a lot of fun.
23. Put on some Christmas music and dance with your spouse and children.
24. Learn the history of Santa. It’s pretty fascinating.
25. Track Santa on NORAD.
