For my Best Friend, I would give a $100 bond that would mature to $200

Well are these the prices you are spending on the bond or what they mature to?

Re: Whats the going rate for Christenings??

so are they doubling what you spent on them?

IMO if so...then the 250 or 300 is good even without a gift
