Have you ever received a gift from a brother or sister that seems uncannily close to what they might want for a holiday present? Meet the Me-Gifter, one of the most common Scrooge types.

Me-Gifters have found a clever way to ease the pain of gift giving. They select presents they can easily borrow and enjoy.

Here are the three warning signs that you've been me-gifted:

  • Entertainment items (CDs, DVDs, books) match their tastes, not yours.
  • It's a size they can wear and a color you can't.
  • The concert tickets are on the day of your MCAT exam.
