For those who carry large amounts of debt, Christmas can be straight up stressful. Even those not in debt, but on a tight budget, run the risk of beginning to owe money because of the need to buy gifts for others.
Today we, at The Debt Fox, want to help you out by looking at what types of gifts are trending this season, and offering some more affordable alternatives to consider.
It seems everyone under the sun wants or has a pair of headphones in their pocket. If you know a teen or young adult, you could almost never go wrong grabbing them an extra pair of quality headphones. While the top of the line Airpods may break the bank in our situation, we still have smaller brands that have stood the test of time, and all cost less than $50 a pair.
JLab Go Pop+
Available in an array of eye popping colors, and includes an integrated charger that you just CAN'T lose.
Skullcandy Push
Featuring secure ear hooks and an array of voice activated features and a 44 hour standby battery.
JBL Vibe Beam
Water and dust resistant, with handsfree calling and a 30+ hour battery life.
As much as we all love the back-to-basics look of the Marc Jacobs Tote Bag, I reckon that a $195 price tag is a bit much for a canvas bag. Especially when there are countless affordable alternatives that will still hold up to all your needs.
Nubily Leather Hand Bag
A spacious, water resistant leather alternative. Capable of holding every day necessities.
Lovevook Leater Laptop Bag
Perfect for work or daily use, the Lovevook tote comes in a large array of colors.
Valleycomfy Canvas Crossbody Bag
Falling closer in style with the Jacobs tote, this bag comes with many different options at a much more affordable price
Many times, a memorable gift is less about the name brand or the price tag than it is about how it helps or changes someone's life. I recently made a purchase that straight up changed the way I clean around the house for good. That was an electric spinning scrubber. I always hated the labor of scrubbing and wiping by hand and this has just made things so much faster for only about $30.
I hope that we were able to help ease the burden of finding affordable gifts this holiday season. Make sure to stick around as we will keep you updated on more finds and deals to help you save.
