The Extravagant Friend

Your friend’s birthday is a few days after yours. He often buys you an expensive gift. He says he just enjoys shopping for gifts, but this makes you feel pressured to spend a lot of money on his birthday present. You don’t think you will have enough money this year to buy him something nice. What do you do?

Let him buy you an expensive gift and get him something cheaper.
Ask him not to get you a gift this year.
