baby shower gift question

How much do you spend on a baby shower gift for a friend? This is my first friend in my circle who is expecting. If it helps, she was a bridesmaid in my wedding, I've known her since college, but we only see each other maybe once a year. TIA!

Re: baby shower gift question

  • $30-$40. Try to shop sales and use coupons. That always helps! A go to gift for me is the clearance rack at Target or Macy's. I bought DH's co worker clother for her baby, got about 6 pieces for $24!!!

  • I try to find a gift around $50 on the registry that I can use a 20% off coupon on.

    Around $40-50 for a close friend.  When one of my 3 closest friends have babies I would probably spend more like $75-100.  I spent about $175 for SIL.  That's usually what I spend after coupons.

    This for me too... We had 5 friends have babies recently 3 of whom were bridesmaids at my wedding and I spent $40-50 on 2 of our friends and $80-$100 on the other 3 my close friends / bridesmaids.

  • anywhere from 50 - 300.   My sil is well to do and has a huge family, i got her a tiffany teething ring and diaper cake.  my sis is not financial stable so i spent more on practical stuff that she would need.  Same goes for friends. 

    sometimes all you really need in life is a pink wig.

  • Good friend, probably around $50-100 depending on person.  Someone I'm not as close with 30-40.
