How much should I spend on a Christmas gift for him?
Knowing how much to spend on the Christmas gift for him comes down to your budget, first and foremost.
If you have no budget, then the world is your oyster.
Some people will take into consideration their budget first, others it may be how well they know the male in their life, and how much they mean to them.
For example, if it is a new boyfriend you may only want to spend £25 to £50, but if you are in a long-term relationship you may look to invest a little more in their Christmas gift.
As a rule of thumb we think a minimum of £25 is a decent budget, but not to spend over £100.
What is a good Christmas gift for a new boyfriend?
If you’ve just made it official with a boyfriend this Christmas, then you’ll want to make sure you get the right gift.
Don’t go too big if it’s new, but make sure you get him a present that shows you care.
You can’t go wrong with trainers or clothes. But if you want to show him you really care, some wall art based on his favourite sports team or music could be a good choice.
What do you buy a guy for Christmas?
Guys can be pretty tricky to buy for, but you can’t go wrong if you buy something in line with his hobbies.
If he’s a football fan then look for a sporty gift, and if he’s mad about music, some vinyl or music-themed artwork would go down a treat.
Or maybe there was something that he wanted that sold out? The new PS5 or a pair of Yeezys perhaps? Then it might be worth checking out StockX to see if they have it in stock.
What do you get the man who has everything?
If you’re shopping for the man who has everything, then looking for something original.
How about something personalised? It’s definitely unique.
What to get the man who wants nothing?
If he doesn’t want a gift this year, then think of vouchers. Maybe a voucher for a takeaway, or a trip to a restaurant?
A voucher for some new clothes, or Amazon where he can even snap up some spirits would go down well.
There’s bound to be something he loves.
When should I start shopping for Christmas?
Start sooner rather than later.
Most people will start shopping earlier to space it out – and if you start now, there’s still a few weeks until the big day.
Should I buy Christmas presents during Black Friday?
Buying Christmas presents during Black Friday is a great way to save money, so make sure you keep your eyes out on our deals pages.
