How to set a gift budget

Start with a total you're genuinely comfortable spending — ideally decided before you start browsing. Then list everyone you're buying for, including the easy-to-forget people: hosts, teachers, neighbors, clients and colleagues.

Closer relationships usually get a larger share. The planner's auto-split button applies typical weights (a partner gets four shares, a parent or child three, siblings and clients two, friends one and a half, everyone else one), rounded to the nearest $5. Adjust any amount and the summary updates instantly.

Typical gift spending by relationship

Relationship	Common range
Partner / spouse	$100–$500+
Parents and children	$50–$250
Siblings	$30–$100
Close friends	$25–$100
Clients	$30–$500 (by tier and policy)
Colleagues, hosts, teachers	$15–$50
