认识Degifting

  Degifting is a mutual agreement to suspend holiday gifts, usually within a single family or circle of friends.
          Degifting指在家庭范围或朋友圈内约定过节期间不用互赠礼物,简称过节“免礼”。
          Degifting can also refer to the act of replacing useless and pointless merchandise with something more meaningful, such as a charitable donation, service project or holiday party.
          另外,degifting也指用更加有意义的行为取代过节时无用又无谓的商品互赠行为,比如捐赠善款、志愿服务或者办个节日聚会等。
          For example:
          Due to the recession, we've decided that degifting is the best plan for Christmas this year. Instead, we're all getting together to serve food at the homeless shelter.
          因为经济不景气,我们决定今年圣诞节最好的办法就是互免礼物。到时候我们会一起到流浪人员救助站为他们送些吃的过去。
