When it comes to regifting, almost everyone does it. Admit it, you likely have too.

And because it's the holidays — and confession is good for the soul — NPR wants to know about a time when you got caught regifting a present that was given to you. We promise that no detail is too embarrassing to reveal.

Tell us your gifting story in the form below.

Your story might end up on NPR's Morning Edition.

Please submit your story to us by December 23rd at 6 p.m. ET.

Your submission will be governed by our general Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. As the Privacy Policy says, we want you to be aware that there may be circumstances in which the exemptions provided under law for journalistic activities or freedom of expression may override privacy rights you might otherwise have.
