Over Half Of Us Will Do, Anything To Avoid Gift-Wrapping For The Holidays And We Hate Secret Santa Exchanges!

This is the worst part of the Holiday Season!

The worst part about the holidays isn’t the music, after all — it’s wrapping gifts and being a Secret Santa.

 

 

 

A new survey asked 2,000 people what the worst part of Christmas was, and over half said that wrapping gifts is the worst!  Half will go out of their way only to buy easy-to-wrap gifts.

 

 

 

Another reason to hate wrapping gifts is the cost with the average person spending upwards of $56 on gift-wrapping materials for the holidays.

 

 

 

The hardest gifts to wrap include bicycles, gym equipment, sporting balls, guitars and candles.  More than half can tell what something is and who it’s from based on how it’s been wrapped.

 

Another disliked holiday tradition is Secret Santa, according to the findings
