Now I have to find someone else to re-gift the Christmas tip towels I got from another member of that group when I had last year's party. Why do they even make tip towels? They're too small for anything but hanging on the towel bar and looking fussy. I'm also going to a cookie bake this weekend but the hostess would hate them so that's not an option.

So people give you tacky shit and you think it's OK to pass it on to your friends provided only that they don't find out you did it? They wouldn't know the difference between a tacky re-gift and something you purchased yourself?
It's not like you can't afford to buy new stuff. You're a lawyer for gosh sake.
