This holiday season, take a moment to ask yourself, "Does this person really want what I'm buying them?" A new survey finds the answer is likely no! Researchers have found that more than half of Americans (53%) will receive a gift they don't want. Do you typically receive gifts you don't want at Christmas/the holidays?

Saying "you shouldn't have…" might be a more truthful statement than ever when it comes to certain gift ideas. Below are the gifts people don't want this year according to the survey. Are any of these typically unwanted gifts for you? Select all that apply.

Nearly four in 10 Americans (39%) plan to pass their unwanted gifts along to someone else. Another 32% take advantage of post-holiday exchange policies to swap their unwanted items for something more desirable. However, more and more people are just opting to sell their sub-par presents for cold hard cash. Over one in four (27%) plan to sell unwanted gifts after the holidays, up significantly from 17% in 2022. If you get any unwanted gifts, what do you typically do with them?

Have you ever said "You shouldn't have..." and actually meant it?
