Christmas budget?


Question Posted Monday December 11 2006, 12:53 pm

19/F

I have to do my Christmas shopping soon, but I was wondering something.

I haven't got my boyfriend's present yet, and I have no idea what he got me, so I can't use that as an indicator.

How much should I be spending on him? We've been together for 3 months, but we were friends for a year before that, and we're really close.

Keep in mind that I AM a university student, so I can't spend an exorbitant amount.

Thank you!

The present does not matter how much you spend. However you can't buy him something at a cheap store for like three bucks and have him buy you something for 100$. I think you should go out and find something that would suit him and make him feel like you really care. Then you could make him a card, and bake him some cookies or something and that will add to the present without haveing to make you spend alot. Only spend what you can afford, and don't worry about over or under pricing it. It's not that big of a deal. You've only been dating a few months, and he shouldnt get upset if you buy him something fairly small. I hope I gave you an idea of what other things you should concider when finding a gift for your boyfriend. Remember, money isnt everything, and if it does matter to him,t hen you shouldnt be dating him because he's alittle bit shallow. Christmas is about sharing time with the person you love, and if you try your hardest to find something that really shows you care, he'll love it. No matter what it is. Good luck shopping, and I hope you find him something perfect. Lots of love, and happy holidays from Angie91

well being a guy, i'm gonna assume jewlery. just get him something moderate that you know he'll like without automatcially showing off a price.if its something good enough he won't at all be thinking he spent to muich on you. and if you find something you really want to get him, check online. You'll usually save atleast 10% on the same exact brand at another store.

you should set up a price range now before he gets the gift, if he already got it, ask him to give you the price range so you could get him something close to the same price as what he got you so it will be fair.

heres a nice site with gift ideas:
