...I know the title sounds like some clickbait crap, but I'm honestly looking for some ideas that I might not have thought about myself.

I've a friend who saves gift bags given to them and reuses them. There's gift bags that have made the rounds several times around the friend's group at this point.

My family has gift bags and bows older than me... Some from the 1960's, some from the 1980's, and pretty much tops out at the 90's. We never buy bags anymore, just add to the collection when gifted something. Seems silly to buy something for 5 seconds of use one time. Everyone knows to save them and brings them back after holidays and such to store in one house usually.
