Last Minute Gift Ideas
Clothing
Several retailers are getting a jump start on the steep winter apparel discounts more commonly found after Christmas. Coats, sweaters and boots will already be deeply discounted at stores including Macy’s and Kohl’s.
You can find a ton of gifts under $5 at Old Navy right now as they have some great sales going on. New York & Co has hat and glove sets under $5 that have been popular too!
Gift bundles
Costco and Sam’s Club offer gourmet gift baskets, gift card bundles and more which can easily be separated into individual gifts. For example, a four-pack of $25 MovieTickets.com gift cards is available from Costco for $79.99, and that’s 20 percent less than face value, enabling you to send a gift to four different people in just one purchase.
Toys
Through 12/24, at American Girl retail locations only, you can save 30% off select items from the world of Grace Thomas collection. Please note, there is a limit of 3 promotional items per transaction and the offer is valid on in-stock merchandise only. For more information, head here and scroll down to the bottom of the page.
Gift Cards
People love gift cards. And there are a lot of freebies attached with giving a gift card. Go here for an entire list!
Food Gifts
Walmart, Costco and Sam’s Club are again, good sources for food savings, featuring gift baskets from $20 to over $100 from such brands as Godiva, Ghirardelli, Starbucks, Lindt, Alder Creek and others. I found a great one for just $10! You can also make your own gourmet gift basket with homemade goods or products purchased from your grocer or local gift shop.
Kitchen Gadgets & Cookware
Cookware will also headline weekend deals at such department stores as Kohl’s, Macy’s and JCPenney, while discount retailers like Ross, TJMaxx and HomeGoods offer deep discounts on premium cookware from Le Creuset, Calphalon, T-Fal and more.
