There is so much about the holidays that I truly love: the music, the food, the gatherings, the traditions (gingerbread houses, anyone?), and of course the gifts. But it can be stressful when you’re on a tight budget. My hack for all my holiday food and gift shopping? I use Ibotta to earn real cash back – not points – from stores where I already shop like Anthropologie, Madewell, Zappos, and local grocery stores like Trader Joes and Whole Foods. My savings go directly to my bank account (you can also have them sent to your PayPal account or opt for gift cards) and I can use them toward the rest of my holiday shopping!
Here, I’ve pulled together affordable gift ideas that will still spread holiday cheer while keeping your budget intact. Everything on this curated list comes in at $60 and under (with up to $25 in savings from Ibotta!). It’s what I’m browsing for all my loved ones…bestie, boyfriend, parents, and more!
Here are 25 affordable gift ideas for everyone on your list!
