Extremely Last Minute Gifts Appropriate For Anyone
The stress & pressure of the holidays feels more intense than ever when your shopping for last minute gifts. So if you’re completely lost in the process, then try taking a look at how you can give the perfect gift even when you don’t know what to buy.
Gift giving is even more difficult this year because of the pandemic. That’s why I put together this post filled with gifts you can get both online or at a retailer near you. So whether your celebrating with those you’ve already been quarantined with, or implementing social distancing precautions to spread holiday cheer these last minute gifts will be ideal. Even if you’re shopping on Christmas Eve.
Digital Entertainment Gifts
Do you know someone who is into movies, gaming or reading? Do you know what they like? If they’re into gaming, then you’ll need to know which gaming system they have. With movies, you’ll do best by looking into options like Fandango, Vudu, or Amazon Video. If they’re into reading, then my personal favorite is Kindle.
Subscription Services
This is one of my favorite categories. Ask yourself, “how many subscription services do I use every year?” Subscriptions have become a modern day convenience and they make great virtual gifts! You can give to someone on your list a subscription by purchasing subscriptions or gift cards. Here are a few examples:
- Readers: Kindle, Audible, or a magazine subscription
- Gamers: Xbox Live, Nintendo Switch Online, PlayStation Plus
- Shoppers: Amazon Prime, Birchbox, BootayBag, Society Socks
- Music: Apple Music, Spotify Premium, Pandora Music, Tidal, Youtube Music, SiriusXM Radio
- Binge Watchers: Netflix, Hulu, Crunchyroll, Disney+, Youtube Premium/YouTube TV
Gift Cards & Monetary Gifts
This is the most common and obvious last minute gift option. Once you’ve found a store the receiver will like, then try visiting gift card specific sites like: GiftNow, the Givingly app, and Gift Card Mall. Whether your giving your recipient a gift card to cover a free week of groceries, to purchase their favorite item from the store they admire, or to watch their streaming service it makes a great last minute gift.
I truly hope this post eases a bit your last minute holiday shopping stress! If it didn’t then, let’s try a different approach. I’m no doctor or healthcare profession, but it might be helpful to put yourself first and look into few ways to practice wholesome self care for the holidays.
