Doesn't it always seem like there are more and more people to buy gifts for each year? Needless to say, the gift-giving budget is stretched, and if you're like me, you take pride in finding the best gifts possible for the best prices possible. Given this, lists of under-$100 gift ideas really come in handy this time of year.
Some would say (me, mostly) that gift guides are my specialty, and I've been meticulously collecting ideas throughout the year. In my opinion, the best gifts are thoughtful, something the recipient wouldn't think to buy for themselves, useful, and, last but not least, expensive looking. It's the latter that I'm really focusing on with this gift guide.
Below, you'll find 31 of my favorite gifts of the season, including options for all of the different types of people in your life. Keep scrolling to work toward closing out that gift-shopping list along with me.
