Whether you’re looking for stocking stuffers, little treats for your office’s white elephant exchange, or gifts to dole out over eight nights of Hanukkah, mini presents are exceedingly useful to have on hand during the holiday season.
They’re also deceptively hard to shop for.
Nobody likes dealing with the accumulation of holiday schlock, and all too often, these smaller presents are the last things on our shopping list—an afterthought that ends up sitting in the recipient’s junk drawer. But they don’t have to be.
We’re here with a few helpful gift suggestions that are most certainly not junk. Some of our favorite small (and already usually budget-friendly) items are on sale for Cyber Monday, including a hydrating lip balm with SPF, an easy-to-store citrus juicer, and a luxurious silk-lined sleep mask.
Now is an excellent time to stock up, so you can be sure the teeny, tiny, itty-bitty gifts you’re giving this year feel as thoughtful as the big ones.
