45 Gifts Under $10 to Buy for Everyone on Your Holiday Shopping List
Besides being warm, fuzzy, and altogether magical, let’s face it: The holidays can be, well, expensive. Sometimes, as much as you adore gift giving, all that holiday cheer can cost a pretty penny, and before you know it, those dollar signs add up, and fast. That’s why it can be wise to splurge on a few gifts and save where you can. Although it might not sound like a whole lot, great gifts under $10 are entirely possible, and can be thoughtful, adorable, and even luxe.
If you need to buy for a lot of people, such as co-workers or your baking group, these under-$10 gifts will be very kind to your wallet. And did we mention that they make great stocking stuffers? Beyond the holidays, you can give these gifts as little pick-me-ups to friends and family members who could use it, or as small birthday presents.
That’s why we put together the ultimate list of the best gifts under $10, from Etsy finds to big-box stores and well-known brands that are surprisingly affordable.
