Oh no, I've heard it too. I first heard it when this girl with whom I was doing a show was complaining about the quality of gifts at her wedding. She cited that formula and my jaw dropped. Just...wow. It's not a bad guideline but again, I draw the line as a requirement, a demand. It's just so crass.
