For Christmas do you buy one gift for a married couple or do you get each one a gift?    :present: :present: :present: :present: :present:

it depends on the couple. but very often i get gifts for both of them. Most couples have very different interests unless there is a major gift you know they both want. It also depends on how well you know them. sometimes a gift certificate to a restaurant is better. :pumpkin: :peace: :wave:
Be grateful for what you have and you will receive more than you ever expected

If you believe it you can achieve it.

Giving a gift to a restaurant to a married couple is better well suited for their anniversary then to think its Jesus birthday.

For my daughter and her husband we just give them a cash sum and they do whatever they want with it. with friends we buy a gift suitable for the couple

 Our kids get gifts for each. Of course it's just money, but the spouses each get the same amount as the rest of the kids.

We get a gift for the couple together, and then a small more personnel gift for each.

Again, I agree that it depends on the couple and I would also look at how well I know them and how close I am to them.  For the most part, I like to get the couple something they can enjoy together, such as gift cards to restaurants, tickets for movie theatres or concerts, a night at a nice hotel, a great food basket that has a variety of products, maybe a limited subscription to a streaming service.

We pull names, so each one will get a gift from some one.

It really depends on the couple, but 85% of the time we buy for the couple.

I think it depends on how much you are spending and the couple as well. I think it would be cheaper to buy a gift for both than two separate gifts. It also depends on how well you know the couple for example is there an activity they both like to do together.

They should take Jesus with them.

Just a reminder to you,he is a spirit now and doesnt need to eat.

Also if U read the end of 1 of the gospels he tells us all he is with us till the end of this system of things.I dont think he needs a happy birthday either...he just wants us to memorialize his death as he told the other 11 apostles after he dismissed Judas.

You got your moneys worth of a witness by mentioning him.My pleasure.
