It’s Christmas season again (for those who celebrate Christmas) and everyone is trying to buy their closest friends and their family cute gifts to show love. Candy, cookies, clothes, socks, anything, but once the prices start adding up, the stress kicks in. There are gifts that are not crazy expensive that you get for others to still show love during the holidays.

Everyone puts so much pressure on themselves to find the perfect gift, but odds are if you get someone dear to you anything they will appreciate it. On Google if you just search “cheap Christmas gifts,” tons of gifts under twenty dollars come up. There’s a canvas you can personalize by putting your favorite picture on for $4.45, a mug you can personalize as well for $1.91. Also, a bunch of ornaments under ten dollars come up, like cute little animals and personalized ones. Basically, if you look on Google you can find some presents that you can make personal for your loved ones.

A classic not too pricey Christmas gift that used to have a bad name when you were a kid is socks. You can’t really go wrong with socks; everyone needs another pair. During the Christmas season, festive socks are everywhere. Fuzzy socks are especially lovely during the winter. You can grab a pack of three for $9.99 at Bed, Bath, & Beyond. It’s a perfect little gift that people will appreciate that won’t break your bank.

Another easy, cheap gift is food, any kind of food. You could buy them their favorite snack or drink. Also, baking during the holidays is fun, festive, and a perfect gift for others. Baking some Christmas cookies, or some brownies is not expensive. Just buy some mix and get baking! Maybe even throw in some hot chocolate mix. Just head to your closest grocery store and pick up some food for your friends and family.

Lastly, an extremely cheap gift is a simple, sweet note. This gift only really requires paper and a writing utensil. You can let your love show through a heartfelt message. You could also let your creativity show by adding some cool paper or a little piece of art personalized for them. It’s always so nice when someone tells you how much you mean to them and especially if you can hold onto the note for years to come. This gift is caring and cheap, it will make them smile like no other store bought gift will.

Christmas is the time for love and happiness, a time to show everyone how much you truly love them, and presents are a way to show that during the holidays. It seems to be that the more expensive the present, the more you care, but that’s not true. These are some cheap presents to show how much you care. Just remember, presents aren’t the only way to show love. This season remember to spend some extra time with the ones you love and just be kind, Rocky.
