I did...I had such a hard time finding something(s) within the price limit. I didn't count shipping as part of my limit though. But I spent about $6 over, not incl. tax & S/H. I just hope my SS person likes her stuff!

I went over too by about $10. I'm so glad I'm not the only one who did either.

I'm using UPS because I want to be able to track the package so I know exactly when she gets it!  Also, I'm lazy and the UPS store is less than half a mile from my house so it's easier than going to the post office. 
Ditto - UPS is right down the street and I want to be able to track it!  I'm sending out via UPS Next Day Priority tomorrow.

By about 5 bucks.  But it was absolutely necessary.

I went over by $4.  Not bad.  And it's pink!  So I feel like I did alright by the rules.  I'm going to ship mine out tomorrow.  I hope she likes it!!!

i went a little over but not much. i'm so nervous and hope she likes. my friend was with me when i picked it out and she said it was cute too. but i saved on shipping b/c i fed-exed from work and charged it to the firm. i'm a little pissed at my job so i figured they could foot the bill for shipping.

All I can say is that my receipient should be so thankful! I almost bought her a pink poodle coin bank. It was awesome! But I wasn't sure if my SS recipient would agree. Sooooo... you're welcome.

I think I stayed within budget? Roundabout at least.  Although, I almost paid just as much in shipping ($4 less than the budget). Sheesh, you'd think that the package was going to Africa.  Actually, I had UPS pack up the boxes for me (that's what made it $16).  All that matters is that she gets it on time and that she likes it.

I have gone over but just a couple of bucks.  I figured a few dollars wouldn't matter....its nothing that the person would have suspected was over.

With tax, I went over by about $2.00.  With shipping and gift wrap it was another $9. It's ok though, the present itself was a great deal.

I probably went over $4 or 5 not counting wrapping or shipping - but that's ok - you can't include any of that or there would be no present!
