When it comes to buying and wrapping gifts, do you take the price tag off? Do you care if the gift you are given still has the tag on it?

I get why my mom keeps reminding me to take the tag off but come Xmas day most of the time my sister just tells me how much she spent on the gift. And plus sometimes you end up seeing your gift in the store anyways and see the price it actually is.

Would it bother you if you knew how much your gift actually was? And would it influence you to spend the same amount on that person next year?

Yes I take it off

But I'm not into buying things in the first place so this question doesn't apply to me

Take the tags off. Makes me feel crap when I unwrap a gift and theres a price tag on it, I start to have a whole thing going on imagining the person wandering about town and seeing whatever it is and deciding to buy it for me, picturing them at the checkout and everything. Take the damn tag off - it's depressing lol

I do, so they won't take it at face value, let it become sentimental instead.

If it is a sticker tag, I carefully peel the sticker off of the gift before wrapping it.
If it is one of the price tags that dangle off of the object (like on clothing), I just cross out the price with a marker.

My kids are the only ones I buy actual gifts for, I take the tags off if they have them. Everyone else gets gift cards or cash.

Not a big deal if I receive a gift with tags still on it, though I do find it a bit tacky. Yes I do think knowing how much they spent on me would influence how much I spent next year.

I always take the price tags off and I really personally prefer that other people take the price tags off of the gifts they are giving me. It actually kinda makes me uncomfortable if the tag is still on it. I'm the kind of person that doesn't like to be given expensive gifts, but my friends are the kind that like to do so.

Last Christmas one of my friends got me several things that weren't too expensive that had the price tags on it and I was doing okay, but then I open the last gift and it was a designer mini bust of Elsa and he forgot to take the $70 price tag off of the box and I almost had a heart attack.
