Well, honey, you can avoid gift tax by staying within the annual exclusion limit set by the IRS, which is $15,000 per person as of 2021. You can also take advantage of the lifetime gift tax exemption, which is a whopping $11.7 million for individuals. Just remember, if you go over these limits, you'll have to deal with the gift tax - and nobody wants that headache!
