Met friend at the weekend for our annual Christmas meal together and exchange of present. We always open them there and then. She had given me a nice notebook. . When I got home I opened it and it had her name written in it. She’s a good friend and great company. She isn’t short of cash but I think any gift is a kind thought. I was going to tease her a little when I see her again about it but another friend says she would be offended if someone gave her a recycled gift. What are peoples thoughts?

I would just let it go. Maybe she was given one and thought it was so lovely she bought you one and got them mixed up when it came time to wrap it or maybe she just likes to recycle.

I wouldn’t feel offended, passing something on to someone who will like it is fine in my book.

Maybe she intended to write "love from:" and was distracted!
