With finals quickly approaching, it can be easy to get caught up in all the schoolwork and forget about holiday gift-giving. It often becomes difficult to find time to do your holiday shopping in the midst of all of the work, so many turn to online shopping. If you plan on online shopping, several websites have great holiday deals if you order in the weeks leading up to Christmas, but make sure to get your orders in soon! In order to help you out, I’ve compiled a list of gifts to simplify your holiday shopping. Follow the links and happy shopping!
Mom:
→If she doesn’t already have everything Wake-related: get her one of these cozy Wake Forest pullovers or a scarf from the bookstore so she can be a proud mom, even in the cold weather.

→For the mom who already stocked up on Family Weekend: Tile Mates can help your mom keep track of her keys or purse.

Dad:
→You can’t go wrong with a nice tie, whether it’s festive or a classic striped pattern. J. Crew Factory offers a great selection at a reasonable price.

→For the dad who loves to cook, get him something that the whole family can benefit from, such as a waffle iron.

Girlfriends:
→For your friends from the South: I’m speaking from personal experience when I say that your friend who comes from one of the warmer states probably doesn’t have all the cold weather gear she needs, particularly if she’s a freshman and this is her first year experiencing temperatures lower than 40 degrees. Grab this girl a cute hat or some ear warmers.
This American Eagle headband provides warmth and style.
The North Face version is thicker, but still shows off your friend’s style with the cute knit pattern:
→For the friend who has everything: We all have one of these friends. She’s the best to borrow cute clothes from, but she’s the one you don’t want to be assigned to for Secret Santa, just because she already has everything she could ever want! Get her a goofy card game, like Game of Phones, that you can all play in your dorm when you get some downtime.
Boyfriend:
Whether you’re shopping for your boyfriend or guy friend, I’ve got you covered.
→For the athletic guy: Get him a pair of Bluetooth headphones so he can exercise without the annoying headphone cord getting in his way. Bluetooth headphones are becoming super popular and these won’t break the bank.
→ For the guy who likes to show off his style: Fossil makes a variety of men’s bracelets, ranging in price and style.
