To give chocolate received as gifts away?

[Horsemad]

So fed up with receiving chocolate as Xmas/birthday presents, despite dropping massive hints after Xmas, I have received yet more for my birthday.
I know I sound ungrateful but just because I love chocolate, doesn't mean I want it every Xmas/birthday.

[WorraLiberty]

They're good to re-gift as long as you store them properly, so YANBU.

Depends. What quality of chocolate are we talking?

[Bluepants]

Yanbu
I do think chocolate if given repeatedly is a thoughtless present.

[CountingThePennies]

What chocolate is it?

[sharonthewaspandthewineywall]

Mmmmm give them here if they are ferrero rocher or toffifee

[Eva50]

I re-gift lots of things. I consider it recycling.

[sharonthewaspandthewineywall]

Or twilight

I regift them all the time. I do think it's a pretty uninspired present. I don't eat a huge amount of chocolate anyway and for the past couple of years have been openly on a very low sugar diet, and still get them! I regift them as a 'thank you for having me for dinner' thing rather than an occasion present.

[Blondie1984]

Only if you are confident the person you give them to would want them

[chocolatemademefat]

Can I send you my address?

[Horsemad]

Hotel Chocolat, some fancy M&S chocs, (2 lots) a 'champagne' bottle full of Celebrations

Considering donating it to the local Lions for an upcoming event they have...

[snice]

Its funny but I felt childishly disappointed recently that no-one gave me any chocolates on my birthday!

[CuttedUpPear]

I've recently started HRT and have developed an overwhelming need for quality chocolate every evening.

Please send them to me, I neeeeeeeeed them

[WalkingThePlank]

Totally agree. Am sick of gifts of chocolate and body lotion. #ungrateful

[Horsemad]

I forgot the Guylian caramel chocs and a box of mixed Ferrero Rocher I also received.

[nocoolnamesleft]

I'll happily take the HC off your hands.

[NormHonal]

Yanbu.

I either donate them to the next charity raffle or take them when I pop to a friend for drinks, or even as a play date thank you if it's been as a favour. Anything to get rid of the bloody things!

[Rosieliveson]

I don't think YABU as the money you save buying chocolates for others can be used on yourself

[Horsemad]

Do you know - I'd rather people didn't give me a present if all they can think of is chocolate
God, that sounds so bloody awful but it does annoy me.

[CuttedUpPear]

I'll take your thoughtless friends off your hands too then.

[TooSpotty]

I don't get presents from anyone but family. No friends here. But the family are determined. Also my MiL has decided, after my politeness in saying thank you for what I thought would be a one-off gift, that my favourite ever chocolates are a brand I dislike, and now buys me enormous boxes of them (very kindly).

[Horsemad]

CuttedUpPear - they are inlaws: you are quite welcome to them!

[AnnieMorel]

I get a LOT of chocolate give to me at Christmas from customers & much better, loads of wine.

I always give the chocolate away.

[FightOrFlight]

I take them into work for my colleagues to scoff or give them to friends.

I've been vegan for ages but still end up with a heap of Thorntons etc. from non-family gift givers.

[Glitterkitten24]

Do it- I recieve so many every Christmas that I usually take a big bag of unopened boxes of hols to out local hospice for the patients/ nurses of raffle prizes.
