My Life is GruV: Stress Free Holiday Gift Ideas

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UVM chapter.

With some of the best holidays of the year just around the corner, I’m sure a number of us college students are starting to stress out over the perfect gift for the important people in our lives. And all those visits to Church Street and hours spent online searching for deals surely aren’t helping us prepare for finals or get our bodies in tip-top shape for the NBR. So here are a few fun, low cost gift ideas for you! Happy Holidays collegiettes!

 

For our Favorite Ladies:

Stackable Gold Rings ($10): Help your friends up their style game for all of the holiday parties they will surely be going to over break with these simple, yet very trendy stackable rings.

Flavor-Infuser Water Bottle ($15): Let’s be real- sometimes plain old water just doesn’t cut it. Help your friend spice it up by giving her this water bottle that has a chamber for fresh fruit.

Nail Care Kit ($20-$25): Put a couple different colored polishes, a topcoat seal, a nail file, and some hand cream in some cute packaging, and viola! A low-cost, but still fun gift!

Check out your local drugstore

Tea Cup Shot Glasses ($24): For you and your girlfriends to use on those nights when you’re feeling a little classier.

For those Special Guys:

Stainless Steel Mason Jar Sipper ($10): Need I say more than #soVermont?

Bicycle Care Kit ($15): Here in Vermont, you’ll find a large portion of guys have a bike. They may ride it to class, work, or take it out on some trails. Whatever they use it for, their bike could probably use some TLC and allowing your guy to do it himself will surely boost that male ego.

Jerkygram ($25): Guys love jerky. I don’t know why seeing how to me I’d rather eat a bowl of nails. Maybe it’s just one of those guy quirks; like how guys insist on fixing a broken toilet instead of calling the plumber. Either way, every guy will be pleased with this.

And when in doubt, there’s nothing someone likes more than a gift card to one of their favorite stores!
