1. Press-on nails – now hear me out, I was super duper skeptical too. Some press-on nails “look” like press-ons which weirdly enough is not the look you want. And they can fall off easily. But I was proven wrong. There are so many brands of press-ons that will make you think you spent hours at the nail salon. If you apply them right, which isn’t difficult to do, they will last two weeks. TWO WEEKS. I have been rocking press-ons for almost two years and I’m obsessed. I can’t forget to mention they’re reusable too if you want to. Glamnetic is one site I purchase them from. Prices vary depending on where you purchase but you can get a set for as low as $10. And I highly recommend their brush on glue.
2. Snack box – this is something you can create yourself or you can purchase pre assembled boxes. This is perfect for that active person on your gift shopping list. I’ve given these to my husband who plays tennis and he loves reaching into his box for a snack after his matches. Prices vary but you can definitely do this for $30 and under.
3. Books – yes books are great gifts! Ask any book lover. You will have a special place in their heart if you gift them a book – well at least a book they want to read. Most paperbacks average $15.
4. Custom socks – who doesn’t wear socks? So I think you will be safe gifting custom socks with a picture or drawing for $24. It will be the receiver’s favorite pair. Here is one site you can get them from, but a quick Google search will provide you with other options. Divvy Up
5. Custom Calendar – this is a gift you know will be used for 12 months. My sister-in-law gift me these and I love it! I always look forward to seeing the pictures she’d chosen each month I flip my calendar. There are many websites that provide this service one of which is Snapfish. You can get one starting at $24.99.
6. Perfume/Cologne – websites like Dossier allows you to smell like a million bucks without the cost. My favorite is Fruity Brown Sugar inspired by YSL’s Mon Paris. You get to purchase designer inspired fragrances for $29. Gift one and get one for yourself at Dossier
7. Monthly Subscriptions – pay $25 on a monthly subscription like Hulu and Netflix. There are gift cards available.
8. New Glasses – yup! You can seriously get new frames with prescription (basis) for $30 or less. I have many pairs because of this. Sites like Zeelool offers reasonable cost on frames and prescription lenses.
Happy Gifting!!!
