GREAT GIFT IDEAS $15 and UNDER

Hate shopping?  Clueless about what to give someone this year?  Tired of giving boring gift cards?  Want to give a gift that is a little more creative but doesn't take a lot of time to do?  Are you on a budget or limited to a certain amount of money? Here are some great ideas that would even be great for the FAMILY, FRIEND, OR OFFICE GRAB BAG!  The best part is....I've done most of the work for you!

​ All links below are affiliate links with Amazon. All shown prices are subject to change as many, if not all, are currently on sale for the holidays!  Many of them can also be purchased elsewhere for better prices so always shop around, however I personally can not beat the convenience of shopping online!  Be sure that you are also shopping through EBATES (sometimes there is cash back on Amazon) and that you are getting FREE SHIPPING if available.  If I am not getting items shipped for free, then I am not buying!  But thats just me....

1. FOUR Movies and Snacks

• Buy a 4 Film Favorites Movie (that is what you will search for on Amazon or elsewhere). They range from $5.99 and up.  Make sure to choose one that leaves a few extra dollars so  you can add in a few boxes of candy or treats from the dollar store!  You can choose the genre too: comedy, suspense, action, horror, sic-fi, love, etc.  depending upon the people who will be participating in the grab bag :-)
• Here are a few I found:

Eddie Murphy Collection - $7.50

Romantic Comedies Collection - $6.92

Brad Pitt Movies Collection - $5.96

2. Not Just a Mug!

• Why not buy a mug thats fun?  There are a lot of creative mugs out there, you just have to know where to look!  The mugs below have pictures that change after hot liquid is added!  Once you find an awesome mug, fill it with candy, some packages of hot chocolate, or even some bags of tea.  Depending upon the cost of the mug, you can fill it up with lots of fun things.  
• Don't want to fill it with any of that?  Then add a gift card to Dunkin' Donuts or Starbucks!
• Here are some fun mugs I found:

Changes when you add hot liquid! Cost $7.82

Add hot liquid and the stars turn into the American Flag! $11.99

Heart changes with hot liquid! $7.99

3. Reusable Handwarmers and Gloves

• Buy a set of reusable hand warmers that can be recharged by boiling over and over again.  Pair it up with an inexpensive set of magic stretch gloves!  These gloves fit anyone, any size, any gender!

4. Key Chain and​ USB Charger Combo

• Pair a USB charger that works with both Apple and Android with an interesting key ring!  If you do a purse, fill it with a note and some change or put a fun picture or saying in a photo key chain! Use your imagination....

High Output 4 amp dual USB Charger - $7.49

Leather Key Chain Change Purse - $6.53

Snap in Photo Key Chain - $5.25

5. A Flask and a 'little something' to go with it!

• Buy a flask and either a small bottle of 'something' to go with it or a gift card to the local beverage store!  You can choose from a plastic flask similar to the ones issued to pilots in the military, or a stainless steel one.  I like the plastic ones because they are unbreakable, lightweight, will not corrode or leak through seams, and can pass through a metal detector! The plastic one also has better reviews!

SportFlask- fishing, skiing and carrying flask- 16oz Military pilot issue - $6.99

Top Shelf Flasks Stainless Steel Hip Flask , 8oz, Black - $6.16

6. Infusion Water Bottle with Fresh Fruit!

• These new water bottles are all the craze!  Make it an even better gift by adding a few pieces of fresh fruit to the gift!  To make it more fun add a small bag that includes one apple, one orange, and a few grapes!  Or make it up of any fruit available at the time!  You can choose a top or bottom loading!

7. For Wine Lovers...

• Of course this is not enough money to get a good bottle of wine, however you can easily purchase a corkscrew and/or wine stopper or Wine Aerator Spout!  You can add some cheese and crackers to make it more fun!

8. Stress Relievers....

• Pair with each other or add some Yogi Stress relief tea...

10. Garden Lovers....

• For the avid gardener there are lots of ideas!  I recommend staying away from buying tool sets unless you want to spend more money....a good gardener really needs quality tools and the set will not be quality if it is under $15.  However, if it is a single tool, or other accessories, then go for it!  
• Add some packages of Heirloom seeds too!  My favorite (and easiest) to grow is stringbeans!

Fiskars Garden Bucket Caddy, Bucket Not Included - $9.69

Bamboo Work & Gardening Gloves for Women & Men - $8.99

BONUS IDEA:
For the Birds...

• Give a bird feeder and add some seed!  You don't have to give the whole bag of seed either, just give the bird feeder filled and ready to go!

Holly Berry Gilded Chalet Wild Bird Feeder - $8.99

Birdscapes Clear Window Feeder - $7.74

Wild Bird Food 10-Pound Bag - $4.98

Deluxe Treat Blend, 4-Pound Bag - $5.98

OTHER IDEAS TO SEARCH ON YOUR OWN:

• For the dog lover...Picture frame for a pet and maybe some treats to make home made!  Or just stay with a dog theme....
• For the Comedian....buy comedic gifts like whoopee cushions, funny t-shirts, etc.
• For the Happy Couple ... buy couples gifts like matching t-shirts, mugs, and wine glasses.  Pair it with something that goes along like wine or a gift card.

Be creative and have some fun!

Hope this post helps you do your holiday shopping this year ;-)
