Default Re: Do you impose frugality in gift giving?

I am definitely frugal/practical in gift giving. A lot of times, I will re-gift something in a basket of sorts. For instance, a candle with a bottle of wine and a couple of wine glasses or a candle with some bath stuff...depending on the person. I also keep a box of gifts that I add to throughout the year to do the basket idea. Many times, I will give a gift certificate to a restaurant but will combine it with something else so it's not as obvious how much I spent.

One of my favorite "frugal" gifts is a movie basket. Either a gift card to a movie rental store or a set of movie passes along with some microwave popcorn and a fun bowl.
