If you have lots of friends and family members having babies, you’ve probably realized that the cost of baby shower gifts can quickly add up, especially if you’re opting to give cute designer baby duds. However, baby gifts don’t necessarily have to break the bank. No etiquette rule says you have to spend a certain amount on a baby shower gift (or on a baby gift given after birth). As The Emily Post Institute staff wrote a while back, “there’s no requirement” that a baby shower gift “must come from the registry or cost a certain amount.” In fact, some of the most meaningful and appreciated gifts won’t cost you that much. We’ve come up with seven such great (and cheap) baby shower gifts to consider if you’re on a budget. See the full story on our sister site, Living on the Cheap.
