A survey has revealed that it is indeed most difficult to pick out the perfect gift for one's significant other.

The survey, which was conducted on 1,000 adult men and women by Ebates.com, found that more than a third of people re-gift during the holidays, and half have a spare gift on hand if they receive an unexpected present, the New York Daily News reported.

According to the shopping website's survey, both men and women describe their significant other as the hardest person to buy a gift for during the holidays.

The results also showed that couple with higher income found it harder to purchase a gift for their partner.

The survey revealed 39 percent of them have gifted a gift from someone else.

The top gift re-gifting options include home decor, gift cards, wine or champagne, books, perfumes and colognes.
