We all know the struggle of trying to find the perfect gift for everyone on the list: after the added stress of finals and the lack of time to shop, finding presents can seem nearly impossible. Lucky for you, I’ve compiled a list of affordable last minute gift ideas!
1. Water Bottle
Water bottles are a great gift! They are easy to find, cute, and not too expensive. Try this Contigo bottle for $12.00 from Indigo.
2. Gift Card/Money
This may seem like a simple gift, but they can be very fun when combined with the promise of a shopping spree on Boxing Day! Another benefit that comes with the gift cards is the ability to choose a price within your limit.
3. Subscription Boxes
Subscription boxes are the gift that keeps on giving. They are super easy to order online and there are so many options to choose from. Check out TopBox—it has a subscription for only $12 a month.
4. Tea and Coffee
Everybody loves warm drinks in the winter. Tea and coffee products are available online and in most malls. A mug and some new flavours to try out make a cheap and easy gift! Check out this set from David’s Tea for $32.
5. Movies and TV Shows
This may seem like a random gift, but sharing a favourite movie or tv show is really personal and can be a fun way to spend some time with family and friends over the holidays. Think about a Christmas movie like Home Alone, which you can get for $14.99 on iTunes.
