On Head-Fi we listen to music - hence it's assumed the gift will be music, or music-related. If you're "out of a job right now and can't afford presents for people yet alone family" perhaps you shouldn't participate. And as someone else said before, casting off unwanted items is not really the point of the Gift Exchange.
The idea behind the Holiday Gift Exchange tradition is really simple: people are partnered up (by whoever is coordinating the exchange, in this case Uncle Erik). Gift details are communicated between partners over PM and both of them exchange postal addresses. Each person buys a gift for the other that arrives by Christmas. Did you not look at the threads for the previous years' Exchanges?
No offense but if your idea of a gift is an item that's not brand-new, I foresee an awkward situation at best in your future.
thats cool and everything but does the gift got to be brand new? like what if i have like the lord of the rings trilogy on dvd which i watched countless times and maybe someone else wants it who hasn't seen it yet. like something like that along with a box of popcorn or something. i think that would make it nicer for people who are out of a job right now and can't afford presents for people yet alone family. just a thought but thats up to the host.
