Believe it or not, there are only TWO shopping Saturdays left before Christmas. As much as I love this time of year, I hate how fast it flies by. Time is starting to run out for all of you on-line shoppers (unless you’re Amazon Prime members, of course). If you still plan to place an order and/or snail mail gifts, just take into consideration that some modes of shipping still require 7-10 business days.
Chances are your calendar is also filling up with holiday parties and gatherings with your friends, meaning there is less time to shop around or wait in the never-ending lines at the register. In need of a gift exchange item, small gifts for your girlfriends or just a little something extra for under the tree? Here’s a few ideas under $20 from Ross & T.J. Maxx that will help you get in and get out of the store fast:
Blanket Scarf
We couldn’t get enough blanket scarf this season and that won’t change as the wind whips harder and temperature drops lower going into the winter months. Typically, this cold-weather accessory will run you about $22+, unless of course, you check out a discount retailer. The scarfs on the left are from TJ Maxx and go for $19.99, the one on the right is from Ross and costs $12.99.
Delicate Laying Necklace
Another big trend this season is layering delicate necklaces, regardless of metal (i.e. a short silver necklace paired w/a rose gold drop). I’m loving the selection at T.J. Maxx, like this Mia Fiore for $19.99.
Kate Spade Tumblers & Mugs
What girl doesn’t love Kate Spade? This Tumbler, priced at $9.99 and retailed at $15.00 encourages ladies to make headlines; a gift especially appreciate for PR pros like myself (hint, hint friends). The mug runs for $12.99, compared to $20.00. Both were spotted at T.J. Maxx.
Monogram Everything: Candles & Cups
Look around on any fashionista’s IG page, and you’re bound to come across a gold-trimmed monogram cup like this one – found at T.J. Maxx for $3.99 (compared to $6.00). These sweet-scented monogram candles are also a perfect gift (and price) for just $2.99 (compared to $6.00 at Ross.
Inspirational Notebooks
Know someone that likes to write, make lists, etc.? Then consider one of these. From scriptures to words of encouragement, this notebooks make a great gift and are super cheap ($3.99 at Ross compared to $6.00).
Picture Frames
Another gift you can never go wrong with – a picture frame! This particular selection from Ross are also adorned with positive sayings, giving your recipient the option to fill the frame or leave it as is. Prices range from $4.99 – $7.99.
Clutches
I’m obsessed with this gold clutch ($12.99) from T.J. Maxx but convinced myself to leave it on the shelf in case you wanted it instead:) Great gift that can be used throughout the holiday season.
Slippers
These Jessica Simpson slippers from Ross feel so comfortable, come in a variety of colors and styles, and only cost $12.99 (compared to $20.00).
Happy shopping!
