10 "His & Hers" Gift Ideas Under $30

Happy Monday my lovelies! January has just been flying by, and we’re almost through our first month of the year. It’s finally almost over, but with February right around the corner, we all know what’s coming... One of the biggest consumer holidays of the year. Although some may hate participating in it, others like to use it as a time to show that special someone, either a partner, friend or family member, that they care and appreciate them. 


Truthfully, I find joy in letting the people I care about know randomly throughout the year, but sometimes I do use Valentine’s Day as an excuse to get them a little something to show my appreciation. It’s nice to show that you care, so there’s nothing wrong with doing it both throughout the year, or using the holidays as a reason to gift something.  


With that being said, for those of you that are stumped on gifts this year, I’m here to help with this affordable mini-guide of “His & Hers” gift ideas under $30. 


FOR THE BOOKWORM

This LED Neck Reading Light is perfect for late-night reading on the couch, or in bed. It’s super comfortable, won’t disrupt those around you while they are sleeping, and gives you the light you need to cozy up to a good book in the dark. There are 3 light colours, and 6 brightness settings to adjust to any eye sensitivity, too. With over 100,000 reviews, rated at 4.7 stars, and available in 4 cute colours, this is the perfect gift for that special someone who loves to read. And if you grab it now, you can get it at 28% off, only $28.99!



FOR THE MOVIE-GOER

The ultimate movie trivia, The Blockbuster Game, brings back all the nostalgia of heading to the video store for a rental on the weekend. There was nothing as energetic as heading to the Blockbuster store on a Friday evening, and picking out a movie to watch for the night. This game brings back all that energy through charades, too. This game is good for all ages and will surely test your movie knowledge. At only $25.99, and having over 3,000 reviews with an average rating of 4.6 stars, it’s definitely worth it for the movie-lovers.



For another movie trivia game, Cinephile: A Card Game is about to pose a real challenge for someone that loves watching all the movies. This one will not only question movie knowledge, but test you on celebrity knowledge including actors within the movies. It has almost 1000 reviews, rated at 4.6 stars and is under $30. The perfect present to challenge the movie-goer and play a game with them that they'll really enjoy.




FOR THE OUTDOORSY ADVENTURER

If you enjoy hiking, cycling, camping, fishing or hunting, this LED Beanie Hat will come in handy. Not only will it keep you warm, but it will also light the way. It’s available in a bunch of cute colours, with a rechargeable LED light, and one size fits all - you just can’t go wrong. This gift is good for any age, too. At least 1,300 people have rated this beanie an average of 4.6 stars, and it’s only $16.99 right now with a $3.00 coupon.




FOR THE AVID TRAVELER

Did someone say “Let’s grab a coffee before our flight”? This addition to your carryon creates the perfect Luggage Travel Cup Holder. Not only does it have two cup holders, but it’s got a pocket on the other side for extra storage. It’s available in a few different colours, has waterproof fabric, a drawstring to secure your cups, and is only $21.99 with a $2 coupon right now. For someone who travels a lot, they’ll love having this add-on for their next trip.




FOR THE SPORTS PLAYER / FITNESS ADDICT

Only true sports players and gym-goers understand why you need these… Your equipment bag is missing these Sneaker Ball Deodorizers. All you do is twist these babies open and throw them into your bag to deodorize it. They smell like fresh linen and are available in different shapes and colours. These specifically come in the shape of different sports balls, too, which is just so fitting for this category. With almost 20,000 reviews at 4.4 stars, try it out!




FOR THE GAMER

The coolest addition to a gaming station is this Headphone Stand Light. You can change the setting to different colourful lights, and it just looks awesome. Any gamer would love to have this stand light up their station, matching it to the theme they have going on. The best part is that it’s USB pluggable, and only $21.99 with the $5 coupon right now. 





FOR THE CLEAN FREAK

Perfect for that special someone who’s extremely annoyed by any kind of crumbs or debris lying around. Get them this compact Desk Vacuum Cleaner to help them clean up quickly. This is also great to use over a tablecloth after a big dinner before putting it to wash. It’s small, easy to store, rechargeable, and can clean up dirt or crumbs to keep everything squeaky clean.




FOR THE COFFEE/TEA DRINKERS

There’s nothing better than a hot mug-full of coffee or tea that stays warm as long as you’re sipping on it. For someone who loves to have their coffee or tea HOT, this Coffee Mug Warmer for their desk is a wonderful gift idea. It’s sleek, has two temperature settings (high or medium) , and GET THIS - it turns off 5 minutes after you remove the mug from it. A convenient and efficient gift all wrapped up into one. I guarantee they’ll love it!




FOR ANYONE

A gift idea I've used a few times, which I've always loved, is making a little basket of goodies from the dollar store. You can spend under $30 and make someone a basket including a bunch of things they might like, such as a mug, reusable water bottle, picture frame with a photo in it, candies, chocolates, socks, hand creams, etc. This is a cost-friendly way to give a thoughtful present that is versatile with a variety of items in it. Everyone loves opening up a basket full of goodies!
