Cathy: My friend and I put a $15 limit on gifts this year. Saleswoman: Excellent! This is $15, and it's a $40 value! Cathy: But what if she gives me a $15 gift with a $20 or $30 value?? I don't want my $15 gift to look more expensive than her $15 gift. Do you have anything for $15 that's a $15 value? Saleswoman: No. For a $15 value, you'll only pay $6.99! Cathy: Nothing like clear guide lines to completely complicate life... Saleswoman: At $6.99, you could buy her two!

So buy it and tell her you only paid $15.00 for it (although it’s tacky to even mention how much you paid for it in the first place)! eye roll

I would go with what you spend, not the value. That’s why they call it a spending limit.Good morning, legaleagle! You were bright and early this morning.Hello to the rest of my favorite clan! Thank you so much for your kind wishes for Lil!! It was a long weekend where she started out tired and struggling, but ended up well. Her squad didn’t do great (4th out of 5), but I think they’ll do better next time in Jan. Either way, she was a trooper and worked hard, and I’m proud of her. ♥Have a wonderful day, everyone!

Leave it to Cathy to completely complicate something as easy as a $15.00 spending limit on gift-giving! What does it matter what the store’s so-called “value” is on whatever item you choose just as long as what you end up paying for it doesn’t go over your agreed-upon amount???
