It is important to remember one thing. An inexpensive gift doesn’t necessarily mean a “cheap” gift. That’s not to say that products that fit your holiday shopping budget can’t be thoughtful, quirky, useful, or just plain fun. It’s all about finding unique and sometimes unexpected items.
Planning ahead is always a good idea, but it’s still possible to manage a budget that has become tight due to inflation and rising everyday expenses. No matter what your friends, family or colleagues like, we’ve found a gift that will put a smile on their face.
From family-friendly games to kid-friendly fun to handy desk support, here are some affordable gift ideas that won’t cost you more than $100 and still pack a lot of holiday cheer.
