Holiday Gift Guide


The Holidays are here and there's nothing I LOVE more than shopping for the BEST gifts at the BEST prices! So I've put together some cost-effective, unique, and thoughtful gifts for your family and friends. I have gifted or received many of these items/ideas and they have been huge hits.

My biggest tip when it comes to purchasing gifts is to buy in bulk (and start wayyyy before Christmas). I like to find small "filler" type gifts throughout the year when retailers are having huge sales and clearances. I like to get things you can divide up and add to a larger gift(s). For example: packs of lotions, mug sets, cozy socks, beauty products, etc.

For The Ladies in Your Life 



  • This Trader Joe's Body Butter is to die for! Find it at your local store or click on the link to get it on Amazon for just $11.79! My mom actually gave me this stuff and it's AMAZING! 




  • These Sherpa Pullovers from Walmart are SO soft, comfortable, and durable. I got one for myself last year and it was the best $12 I have ever spent. These can be found in the boy's section (right now they are sold out online) at your local Walmart. Be sure you size up to the largest boys size they have so it fits right. If you prefer- you can also find similar sherpa pullovers in the ladies, men's, and girls section. 




  • If you want to get a little more personalized I LOVE the site Violet Fox. They have cute personalized items that are GREAT quality! I have ordered several things from them and everyone loves the wristlets and tote bags. If you use the PROMO CODE: FOXY50 you can get 50% off your item (excluding clearance) making these monogrammed wristlets only $12.99! 




  • Kohl's has some of the cutest wooden signs that make perfect gifts for hostess, co-workers, siblings, and friends. Many of them start at just $4.99! Don't forget to use a coupon in-store and online for even more savings! 




  • Every December Bath & Body Works has Candle Day! Where you can STOCK UP on their 3-Wick Candles for as little as $8 each! These make GREAT gifts for ALL. Considering this is the lowest price you can get them all year you should stock up! But...Bath and Body Work's only tell us which day the sale will be the day before. So be sure to follow me on Instagram for updates! (Roomer has it Candle Day will be this Saturday 12/7/19) 




For The Men in Your Life 


  • Harry's Razors are great and every man needs a razor. I recently got this trial kit from Harry's (right now it's only $8) and my husband loved it. It would make a great stocking stuffer for any man in your life! Just be sure to CANCEL the subscription after the trial (very easy to cancel). P.S. This link gives you $5 off! 



  • Last year I got my husband a SprezzaBox. I used this discount code: BONUSBOX20 (which they are doing AGAIN this year) which gives you TWO boxes for just $20. Each box has over $100 worth of men's items such as: socks, tie clips, pens, razors, toothpaste, bottle openers, sunglasses, watches, etc. My husband uses his stuff all the time. You won't exactly know what you are getting but you can easily break up the items and split them between all of the men in your life (brother, dad, boyfriend, etc). Of course, be sure to CANCEL right after your boxes come so you aren't charged the subscription monthly (very easy to cancel)! 



  • American Eagle has some of the best quality clothes-, especially for men. I love getting my husband a couple of basic shirts from the online clearance each year! Long sleeves start at $11 and some of the short sleeves are just $7.18! 

  • This idea is completely FREE! You can gift the men in your life a magazine subscription to various titles including: Men's Health, ESPN, Sports Illustrated, and more!  RewardSurvey lets you get free magazines in exchange for a simple 2-minute survey that gives you $30 in reward points. You can have the subscription sent to any address for 1 whole year for FREE. The first magazine can take up to 6 weeks to come - but I do this ALL the time for myself and for gifts! 




For the Kids in Your Life 

  • I like to put together little collections of in-expensive items for gifts for kids. For example, an outdoor play theme would include sidewalk chalk, water toys, balls, bubbles, etc. You can find many of these items for less than $5 on Amazon or shop after season sales at stores like Kohls, Target, and Walmart!

  • For infants and little ones, I love finding clothes and accessories in the clearance sections. I love shopping at stores like Macy's to find the best deal on GOOD quality items! How cute is this set and it's ONLY $2.56!!




Hold up! You better be using Ebates (Rakuten) if you're shopping online...hello FREE cash back! Click here for more info!
