What to do with all those unwanted Christmas gifts....
If you haven't already gotten to the point of asking friends & family to donate to a cause or charity in lieu of giving you presents...

Or if perhaps you feel that would spoil the fun of Christmas for them...


Give 'em to charity!

Or:

Take 'em back to the store, then donate the money to your favorite cause or charitable organization!

1. That's a wonderful idea
Actually I didn't receive that many presents but the ones I did send I used the Hungersite.com and bought from their many fair trade vendors. So I feel good about how I managed my Christmas this year. The only significant money I spent was to buy my mother a heater for her bedroom and she gave me some money to help me pay my debts.
