Depends on who it's for.
I give anwhere from 50-100 bucks, depending on if they are friends, close friends or family, more if we are godmother/godfather.

I usually give $50. Unless it was my niece or nephew, I would give more. But I don't have any nieces or nephews Chat Icon

I usually give $100 from DH & I. That includes close friends & family. If it was a niece/nephew or godchild I would probably give more.
