During the holiday season, wrapping paper and gift bags are everywhere you turn–as a giver and a receiver. However, wrapping supplies come at a cost and not everyone wants to send their gift wrap straight to the trash. In fact, 21% of those who give and receive gifts say that they re-use their wrapping paper and gift bags ‘very often’ (rebased, excluding ‘does not apply’).  

Those who chose to re-use skew female and Gen X. Perhaps not surprisingly, this habit is also more popular among lower-income earners, who may be looking to save some cash. But this demographic data is just the start of what sets gift wrap re-users apart from the rest.

Here are five key facts to know about those re-using their wrapping paper: 

Recycling Habits: Those who re-use gift wrap ‘very often’ are nearly 25 percentage points more to recycle at every opportunity as those who do not (58% vs 33%).  

Kitchen Clean-Up: While 57% of wrapping paper re-users immediately clean up after cooking and eating a meal, just 47% of non re-users say the same. 

Social Bandwidth: Wrapping paper re-users are nine percentage points more likely than non re-users to cancel plans if they’re tired. 

Full Moon Feelings: Those who re-use their wrapping paper are more than five times as likely as non re-users to notice a difference in their mood during a full moon (26% vs 4%).

Soap Preferences: When it’s time to get clean, wrapping paper re-users are 11 percentage points more likely than non re-users to prefer bar soap. 

Those who re-use their wrapping paper are more than just a penny-pinching, environmentally conscious bunch, they’re a group of consumers tapped into their feelings–unafraid to cancel plans or blame a bad vibe on the moon–and put their needs first.
