Know your rights as a consumer when it comes to Christmas gifts
AS well as a time for giving and receiv ing, Christmas is also a time for taking back. Every year, without fail, you'll end up
queuing with the thousands of others who want their money back or an exchange for unwanted or faulty gifts. But do you have the right to demand this?

■ CAN YOU
REALLY RE-GIFT?
Q: I got two of
the same top for my birthday in November. Can I re-gift one of them to give to someone else? A: Stationery
buyer Jenny Spiver
says: "Sometimes- but do so with cau tion. My sugges tion would be to follow these guide lines: first and fore most, only give . something you think the recipient would like to have. The item must be brand new and in its original pack-
ETNUNHGUE
age, and the person who gave you the gift and the new recipient shouldn't be able to catch on that you've re-gift ed. Discretion is a must! If there's any chance the friend who gave the gift could discover you've passed it along, don't do it. "It's never a good

idea to re-gift a one-of-a-kind pres ent, especially if it was made for you."
■ HOW CAN WE KEEP UP?
Q: My brother
and his wife are really wealthy- we're a bit strapped for cash this year and can't really
afford to buy them all presents. I don't want them to look down on us though. A: Lucy Beres-
lot of people believe that, but it isn't how present giving ought to be. The price of the gift often gets in the way of all the other elements. It shouldn't be about
ford, psychothera pist and expert on the psychology of Christmas pres ents, says: "There seems to be a fear the presents have got to be exactly comparable-the same price or the same degree of lav ishness as the gifts you get. "Unfortunately a
the money- think of things that are more appropriate. "These people
may have loads of cash, but they may
be lacking in time, so volunteer to baby-sit or some thing."
• HOW CAN I AVOID MY HORRIBLE IN-LAWS?
Q: I hate spend-,
ing Christmas with my in-laws -my father-in-law is a bore and my moth er-in-law makes digs at me all the time, but my hus band loves it there. What can I do? ■ Continued on page 26

Christmas Day and you've just opened your present from great-aunt Maude. A smile that shows too much tooth spreads across your face and you hope your voice isn't too high- pitched when you croak 'ooooh, isn't that lovely!' Whether it's a hideous jumper, a CD you'd rather die than listen to or yet another pair of beige socks, it's going back first thing on Boxing Day, but you don't have the heart to ask her for the receipt. So what exactly are your rights as a con
