12 Top Christmas Gift Ideas Under $10
Cash strapped when it comes to Christmas gifts this year? Not to worry.
There are many gifts that will create holiday glow without breaking your piggy bank.
Here are my top 12 Christmas gift ideas under $10.
If you check this list- maybe twice- it could save you a lot of time and money.
1.
Gourmet Coffee.
Coffee-holics abound.
A pound of quality grind, a gift card, a coffee mug or any combination of these are always hits.
2.
Wine.
Quality wine doesn't have to be expensive.
Choose one you like.
Chances are your gift will be thoroughly enjoyed by the fireplace.
3.
Kitchen Tools.
Clever gadgets that do something faster or easier are within your price range.
Wine openers.
Garlic presses.
Jar openers (always an issue at my house!).
4.
Webkinz.
The Webkinz craze continues for kids under ten.
Kids love the interactive features and building their collections.
5.
Favorite DVD.
My family loved, loved, loved Night At the Museum: Battle at the Smithsonian.
Amazon sells it for under $10.
6.
iTunes Cards.
It may seem impersonal but nearly every teen has this item on the top of their wish list.
7.
Chocolate.
I placed this one at the 'lucky 7' position but it is always a winner.
Just make sure your recipient isn't allergic.
8.
Homemade goodies.
That fresh out of the oven scent always evokes happy memories.
You can cheat and not start from scratch if you are short on time.
In my book, if it's baked in my oven, it's homemade.
Gingerbread men, holiday sugar cookies and Christmas cupcakes are special favorites.
9.
Fuzzy Slipper Socks.
Buy a few pairs for under $10.
People-irrespective of gender--can't seem to have too many.
My kids prefer wear non-matched ones; they go on as soon as they enter the house.
For older folks, look for the ones that have rubber imprints for secure walking.
10.
Books and Journals.
Paperback books and writing journals with artful covers are always appreciated.
Make sure to include a gift receipt for easy return in case you duplicate a book already on someone's shelf.
11.
Popcorn.
You can buy specialty popcorn bowls and seasonings and package them creatively.
12.
Wickless candles.
There are a number of new, scented, candle options for your holiday glow without fire hazard.
Since Christmas is a special time for giving, I'm going to make this list a 'baker's dozen.
' Another budget-friendly gift is coupons to give among friends and family for non-favorite tasks or special treats.
My kids have given me coupons for a shoulder massage, dinner clean up and garbage retrieval.
Help out an elderly neighbor with a dog by assisting with pooper scooping.
Think creatively and you can put smiles on a lot of faces.
There are more than 12 top Christmas gift ideas under $10 and some of them are free! Wishing you the joys of the season and all the best for a prosperous, happy New Year!
