Depends on how close. I usually spend $60 on a good friend.....but if I see something the person will love, I go for it, reasonably so.

Usually $50 and then we get together for dinner and drinks. And the Bday girl doesn't pay - obviously!

Re: How Much Do You SPend on a Friends B-Day Gift?

I only really exchange with one or two of my friends, usually the max is $50.


ETA: Unless I see something that she'd really like/want, then it's higher of course.
