- A toy doesn't have to be high-tech to make a good holiday present. Delight your younger gift recipient this holiday season without breaking the bank by buying him some coloring supplies. Purchase some crayons, markers, colored pencils and coloring books to create a coloring gift package. Pair the gift with a tote bag that the recipient can use when traveling with these supplies.
- The chilliness of the December holidays makes cozy clothing a popular present option. Regardless of how little you wish to spend, you can likely find some comfy clothes that will help beat the winter chill. Buy those on your list some cozy socks or flannel pajama pants for those cold winter nights or select scarves, gloves or hats for everyone on your gift list, buying them inexpensively or even crafting them yourself if you have the skill.
- Surprise those on your holiday gift list with a gift that gives all year long. Buy him a subscription to an affordable magazine of which he is fond. While some magazine subscriptions are pricey, many are quite economical, particularly if you are applying for the first time as many publications offer enticing introductory rates. Slip a copy of the magazine in question into the recipient's stocking with a holiday card explaining that you have subscribed for the individual.
- Purchase some tasty treats that your gift recipients can enjoy before they start on their New Year's diets. Purchase your recipients' favorite snacks and make a gift bag for each. Pair the foods with some DVDs or books that the recipient can enjoy while snacking on the provided treats.
- Give young recipients a toy from years ago or delight older recipients with classic toys with which they played as youths. Buy those on your holiday gift list some sets of jacks, yo-yos, jump ropes or mental puzzles. Because these gifts are often so inexpensive, you may be able to buy each gift-list individual several, making a classic toy collection for each without busting your budget.
