Photo: Shutterstock When it comes to gifting, we tell ourselves it’s the thought that counts. But, if we’re being totally honest with ourselves, cost can play a role, too. When the goal is to give something wow-worthy, it’s only human to feel that the price tag matters, even if just a little bit. It’s not about materialism or showing off. It’s about generosity and treating someone to something lavish that they wouldn’t buy themselves. It’s about spending your money on a loved one who deserves it.
