Aguinaldo Explained
More than the amount inside an envelope.
Aguinaldo is a Christmas gift. In many Filipino family settings, the term is associated with money given to children or godchildren.
A personal note, a kind visit and a gift you can comfortably afford can make the exchange thoughtful. There is no single amount that suits every household.

Celebrate Comfortably
A good gift begins with a realistic plan.
List your recipients before shopping. Set a total spending limit and include packaging, delivery and the gathering you are planning.
Choose a gift for the person receiving it. A useful item or a sincere message can be more meaningful than an expensive purchase made under pressure.
