Honestly in this situation I would probably do a savings bond. That way she cant cash it right away and it will double what you spent once it matures anyway.

I dont think they double anymore? we bought one a couple years ago and i thought it cost more than half and took more than 8 years (now 16?) to mature. whatever the exacts were, it wasnt like the old days! lol

Get out!! REALLY?! Now I have to rethink my gift for the christening I'm going to next month... That was always my go-to

My mom works in banking and says if you're gonna get a bond... get an I Bond.

My aunt had gotten me the $25 or $50 old school bonds for EVERY holiday, birthday, major life event ... I cashed them in at 18 and they paid for my first year at suffolk (tuition and books).
