Consequently, how much should you spend on a gift?
Setting a budget The National Retail Federation's annual survey of holiday spending estimates the typical American will spend $659 on gifts for family, friends and co-workers in 2019. On the high end, Gallup puts the average at $942, with more than a third of respondents expecting to spend over $1,000 on gifts.
A girlfriend should cost as much as you feel she's worth. If you feel she's worth only $10/week, spend that if you feel she's worth $200/ week, spend that (get a dance for me too, hehehe). If you are spending less on her, then you're cheap, if you're spending more, then you're getting ripped off.
