Holiday Gift Guide 2019

December 11, 2019

Gifts that show you care but, DO NOT break the bank

Do you get your parents, siblings, and friends the same thing every year? If only there was a  way to get creative with gifts while still staying within your (limited) budget. 

Here are a few tips to help you pick out the best holiday presents:

  1. Make sure it’s something you can afford!
  2. Keep it interesting.
  3. Something the person will fully enjoy.

To start off, keep the budget at a reasonable price. At our age, spending $100-$200 on gifts isn’t realistic. Setting the price at $30 or $50 is a much more reasonable range. Marshalls, Tj-Maxx and Target have gift sets under $15 and even offer dollar section items! Gifts don’t have to break the bank. 

Next thing to take into consideration is an item that hasn’t been done before. Everyone loves socks, candles, and candy but it’s done every year! New things come out everyday. Little board games or knick knacks could be a cute and unique gift. 

“One year my family bought me a book, How to talk to your Dog. It was corny but so cute!” Benalcy Moreano said about one of her favorite Christmas gifts.

Finally, it has to be something the person will enjoy to the fullest. I wouldn’t give my brothers scrunchies or fuzzy socks because they wouldn’t use them. Instead, look into if they have favorite sports teams or hobbies that can tie into the first two steps of getting the perfect gift.

Some of my favorite gifts I’ve received are my Dog Breed book, fuzzy socks of course, and a personalized fluffy blanket. Maybe a photo album or a fun board game works for your friends, too. You can make this holiday season easy and show the people you love how much you care about them.
