If you don't know what to get your Friends, children,grandparents, parents, or siblings then I have five gift ideas for under $30 you should check out.
Food Gift Baskets
Everyone loves food! And it is an easy thing to buy. Before you go shopping, ask the person what kinds of candies, chips, snacks,cookies,sweets they like. You can go this one of 2 ways. First way is just to buy the snacks and get a basket from a crafts store or lying around the house that you never use. This way you can look at spending around $20. Second way is to buy a personalized gift basket from the store or specialty gift outlet. These can be very pricey, but Carolina Cookie.com and Harry and David retail stores and online have goody baskets for well under $30 as well.
Books
Always a great idea and educational. Most books can be bought online and at bookstores and retailers for around $5 to $25. Books are a great childrens gift too. You can ask the giftee's favorite author and try to find a book that they don't have by them and it will surely make their day!
Gift Cards
Gift cards are a perfect alternative for a person who you know likes to shop at certain stores or resturaunts. Gift Cards come in prices of $10 and up usually. Starbucks,Walmart, Amazon, Barnes and Noble and Target are among famous retailers you can find in most stores.
Movies
Movies are very enjoyiable part of life. You can easily find DVD's, Blurays, streaming services,and digital downloads for around $5 to $20. However, word of advice If a kid likes the Cars movie try to make sure its the real thing rather than a cheaper knockoff.
Lotions and soaps
Husbands and boyfriends take note! Most ladies love good smells, and lotions and soaps are good gifts. Most of these can be found at Bath and Body Works or other retailers from $5 and up.
