Sometimes you just need a small thought to give someone! Maybe even a white elephant gift?? Here are some of our favorite items that are all under $25 and easy to grab 🙂
Tripod
We originally bought this for traveling in AZ, but we love it and keep it with us almost all the time now. Since it’s flexible, it folds up pretty small and can easily fit in just about any small bag. It even allows you to hang your phone upside down (say, from a tree) and capture a hands-free photo!!
Cup
We are cup people! It’s weird, we have way too many, but we still buy more! LOL I have 3 of these cups and could easily buy more. They have tons of colors to choose from. They are my favorite because the top screws in. This is so important when you have kids and your water tastes infinitely better than theirs!! The 20 oz straw is my personal fave 😉
Cereal Holder
Chance goes to work really early (well, pre COVID), and he would put his cereal in a big cup and eat on his drive in to work (a trick he may or may not have learned from me LOL). I got him this cup sort of as a gag gift, but we both actually really like its usefulness.
Travel Mug
Another essential! We first discovered the Contigo brand when we lived in the ATL and worked tons. Chance drank alot of coffe after coming off of his grad school days. We could only afford very small gifts back then & I was really excited to find him this super secure coffee mug. He still has the OG mug from back in the day, but I’ve gotten him a new one along the way. He even surprised me with my own since I drink hot coffee here and there when it’s cold out!
Cosmetic Bags
I’ve tried tons of bags when traveling. I’ve even done the one big cosmetic bag that you roll up and can hang on the other end. That never worked for me. I love these bags because they hold the perfect amount of brushes, makeup and travel-sized items. Then I can split them up as needed when packing my bags. They are water-resistant on the outside and wipe off easily if you need to clean them. They look really pretty, too 😉
Charging Station
Chance got me this as a “just because” present not long after I got my newest iPhone. I then had both my watch and phone to charge at the same time. I love this because it stands both of them up and it doesn’t take up as much space on my nightstand. It also keeps everything looking neater.
Hat
This was such a good Amazon find! It’s an awesome hat at an even better price with tons of color options 🙂 There’s really no more to say LOL
