MOST XMAS GIFTS ARE FORGOTTEN

A survey from Groupon finds that:
– More than half – 53 percent – of the gifts people received last Christmas have already been completely forgotten.
– On average, people receive three forgettable gifts every holiday season. These gifts aren’t just forgotten; they’re often unused. In fact, one in six gifts received will never be touched or used again after January 1st.
– Siblings are considered the worst gift givers.
– The person Americans trust most to give them a good gift this season? Your partner. 70 percent of respondents said that what makes gifts memorable is loving the person who gave it to them.
– Why give a gift you know is lousy? For more than half of respondents, the answer is simple: “I needed to get them something.”
* So the Grinch was wasting his time stealing everybody’s presents.
* Remember – always ask for a gift receipt.
* Instead of presents, we should just give each other pictures of stuff cut from magazines.
* This Christmas, if you can’t give right, give up.
* PHONE TOPIC: What’s the best gift you got that you’re still using?
