Yes, but it varies by person and event.
Once in a lifetime achievements (graduations, special accomplishments) of young person – $100
Birthdays- family, regular – $35 to $60, plus dinner. Notable birthdays- $100
Wedding presents – $100 for children of friends, up to $250 for relatives.
Yes, but it varies by person and event.
Yes, for it is a direct reflection of my love for them.Lol!
If I give someone a painting, it means that I am head over heels. :)
Yes, out of necessity. When you have dozens on nieces and nephews and kids of friends to buy for it starts to add up quick. For a very special occasion that may be different.
Right @ARE_you_kidding_me? And I have 10 grandchildren, plus my own 3 children. Man, it gets ridiculously expensive.
I can’t put any dollar amount on my love for my kids.
Oh, yeah, for a wedding, it’s about $150.
Same as the OP. 50 or 100, depending. Last spring all the grads about killed my checking acct ha!
I honestly look for things I really think they’d like first, then look at price. I want to get these jeans for my 16 year old granddaughter. They say they were originally $80 something, and I would not spend that much on a growing kid, but they’re on sale for $40. That’s doable.
If I’m buying a gift for someone I never spend less than $30. For most people I stick with $45—$65 range. Christmas is different though, I’ll spend a lot more.
I wouldn’t spend $30 on a toddler! No way.
