At the same time, 88% are embarrassed to admit to the donor that they did not like the gift, and only 12% will answer honestly.
54% would not like to receive any gifts, but would prefer a gift card so they can choose for themselves.
The least attractive gifts were medical procedures (33%) and “symbol of the year” souvenirs (32%). In addition, the antirating included pets and payment for subscriptions to digital services.
The most desired gifts, according to Russians, are jewelry, money (40%), gift cards for stores and trips.
