Here are some crunch time ideas for those procrastinators out there. I have memories of walking into a Gap only to find empty shelves where sweaters and scarves should be. If you find yourself in such a pickle, here are some other options.
Brick & Mortar Options
- Bath & Body Works candles, soap, or gift basket (fancier looking candles at Anthro)
- Board games or puzzles from Target or a pop-up game shop at the mall
- Fancy phone case or accessories– chargers, cords, blue tooth speakers…
- Magazine along with a year’s subscription (Barnes and Noble has a magazine for everyone on your list so you can give the actual magazine with the subscription)
- Sephora Favorites gift box or brand specific gift box (Ulta has several as well)
- DVDs or a movie theater gift card along with some fancy or microwave popcorn
- Cookie dough ingredients assembled in a mason jar with the recipe attached
- Gift card, store specific if you know where they like to shop or Target if you don’t know where they shop
E-Subscriptions
- Digital newspaper or magazine subscription (NY Times, Wall Street Journal, The Economist, Sports Illustrated, etc. are a little more substantial because of their frequency; Real Simple, Glamour, Food Network Magazine, Bon Appetit, O Magazine, etc. are usually less than a twenty dollar bill for a year)
- Amazon Prime subscription
- Blue Apron subscription
- Birch Box subscription
- Dollar Shave Club subscription
- Netflix subscription
- E- gift card to an online retailer, somewhere specific like Carbon38 or somewhere general like Amazon
God Speed!
