[quote=Anonymous]I keep new unused expensive gifts for a year, take some pictures like a PP said of my child with the gift and then after that year, I sell it as "unused". This way, the gifter has a chance to see it around the house a few times and knows that it was around. Keep it for next year and if your DS says that he doesn't like next year's gift, you sell this year's plasma car and get something new. The other good side effect for this is occasionally, after several months, the child actually tries the gift and finds out the (s)he likes it. So occasionally, the gift ends up being used. And other times, the gift can fund a replacement gift for something else. Despite being in our 40's, my sister still has no idea what I like, but she loves to shop, so I have years of clothes and other gifts in the closet that slowly get sold via consignment or Ebay to help buy other gifts for myself or my kids.[/quote]
