When shopping for holiday gifts, deciding how much to spend on each person can be really hard. How much do you really want to spend on Aunt Susan (who never fails to give you unsolicited advice on your love life)? Should you splurge on your brother-in-law because you like him best (sometimes even more than your sister)?
Over the last couple years, I’ve found a way to work around that painful exercise: I fix a single budget across the board, an outer limit, if you will—for all my family and friends. This year, somehow, I’ve landed at $30. And I think that might just be the magic number! With a gift around $30, you’re giving more than a stocking stuffer, but not an investment item. You can afford something substantial and thoughtful—a present that’s more original and less fleeting than a bottle of wine (although no one would scoff at that!).
