So, it\u2019s unsurprising we can\u2019t get it right every time. So, instead of leaving millions of surplus presents to gather dust in cupboards, we\u2019re asking people to put those items to good use. We will sell well-meant, but as-yet unloved, presents to others who will want them cutting down on waste and crucially raising money for our work fighting poverty around the world. So please join our gift amnesty. Donate your unwanted stash to an Oxfam shop and do something amazing this New Year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\" data-block-key=\"fo7c\">Toiletries topped the unwanted gift list. Twenty-eight percent of respondents said they received soaps and bath bombs they didn\u2019t want, with moisturizer next (22pc). Seventeen percent said they received unsuitable jumpers and candles.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\" data-block-key=\"c45fa\">Evidence shows getting less-than-perfect presents can feel like a good thing. Thirty per cent of people asked said they didn\u2019t mind getting unwanted gifts as they can give them to charity. The same number said they can regift the item to someone else, which saves them money.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\" data-block-key=\"3d3pr\">Lorna Fallon said \u201cThe New Year is the perfect time to declutter and make space for what you really want or need in your life. So, if you have surplus items, like unopened toiletries, you think someone else will enjoy then please donate them to us. You\u2019ll be giving someone the chance to buy quality items at affordable prices, and contribute to the circular economy, which is better for the planet and people. And you\u2019ll be part of a positive global movement fighting the injustice of poverty, helping to make the world a fairer, kinder place.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: left;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A research conducted by One Poll for Oxfam found well over half (57 percent) give some of their unwanted gifts to charity.
