Holiday Gift Giving Etiquette

Monday November 5, 2007

If you are anything like me, as soon as Halloween is over I start thinking about and planning for the holidays. I'm also a huge gift giver, in that I love to find the perfect something for everyone in my life that I care about - which is no small feat! Oftentimes I'll make something for the truly special people, which of course takes time. But there is no way I could make something for everyone on my list, and therefore why I'm starting early this year.

With that in mind, this Holiday Gift Giving Etiquette article should be of use to those, like me, who are planning their holiday celebrations early. It details the kinds of gifts to give your sweetie depending on how long you've been dating them, including casual relationships and couples that are living together. Then, it links to specific gift ideas for each relationship stage.

What are your thoughts on holiday gift giving etiquette? When it is appropriate to give a gift, why, and how much should it cost?
