$50 to $150

You can really see a future with this guy, and you’re pretty sure he feels the same way about you. He’s got his own ringtone on your phone, and you’ve got a toothbrush at his place. It’s pretty serious. Even if you’ve been together awhile—and you’re saving your pennies for a trip to Thailand next year—you still want to spoil your sweetie.
