So Many Friends and Family. I Can’t Afford Gifts for All of Them.
“What are you getting my sister for Christmas?” was what I texted my brother-in-law a few weeks ago.
I’d been struggling to find the right gift since a family trip to Italy, where we spent hours perusing stores together. A burgundy Bottega bag? Way too expensive. An art book from a graphic artist in Milan? Affordable, but impossible to find. A ceramic plate to serve whole fish at dinner parties? Turns out, she just got one.
My sister is just one of several people in my life who have both high-end taste and the means to buy what they want, making them hard to shop for. In the past, I’ve tried to match their energy when it comes to gifting. But after reprioritizing my spending, I’m realizing that meeting my friends and family at their budgets isn’t sustainable.
