Folks, it’s that time of the year again. If you’re anything like me, then your go-to strategy for holiday gifting is to hand out a Visa gift card that can be used anywhere to avoid disappointment. This year, however, I am challenging myself (and you) to think outside of the box when it comes to handing out presents. While it may be hard to find gifts for dads and gifts for teens (i.e., some of the hardest people to shop for…outside of mom, of course), you absolutely can find something that fits their fancy without breaking the bank (even if it’s a virtual gift). I’ve sifted through more than 200 top gifts and narrowed them down to the best 34 gifts under $150. It’s time to get wrapping.

How I Chose the Best Gifts Under $150

I chose a wide selection of gifts to cater to every person in your life—whether that's your great aunt Ann or your accountant, Bob.  I polled our editors for their recommendations of top products and paid close attention to best-selling items with top ratings from buyers, while also taking into consideration items that have been favorites from PureWow readers throughout 2025. The result is this list of 34 items that are high-quality, editor-approved and smartly priced under $150.

A Gift for the Kiddies

1. Quince Holiday Flannel Pajama Set

Quince

PureWow's Fashion and Beauty Director, Deena Campbell, just picked up this pajama set from Quince for her daughter. "My 6-year-old has officially retired from footie pajamas, because apparently, she’s a big girl now. The candy-covered print turns bedtime into a sugar rush (minus the actual sugar), and the flannel is so cozy I never worry about her being warm enough at night. Meanwhile, I’m semi-jealous, wishing this print came in adult sizes with a matching coffee mug."

For the Music Lover

2. Beats Pill Portable Sneaker

Beats

Want to score automatic cool points with your teen? Get them a Beats Pill portable speaker, and you'll be their favorite person of the moment. Not only is the sound crystal clear, with a reported 90 percent more air volume, but the speaker is also water-resistant, with a 24-hour battery life. Music to their ears...literally.

Best Gift Set

3. Medicube Essentials Holiday Kit

Medicube

Believe me when I say that Medicube is a K-beauty brand that lives up to the hype, which is exactly why you need to snag this gift set, which comes with not one, not two...but six of their bestsellers in one pack: the Zero pore pad, their cleansing oil, the PDRN capsule cream, the PDRN serum, the Collagen wrapping mask and the Collagen jelly cream. All this for just $30, too?! Count me in.

Your snuggle just got an upgrade with this plush throw blanket from UGG, which is made from 100 percent polyester. With measurements of 50-inches by 70-inches, that means there's plenty of room for you and a partner to snuggle up on the couch this winter, and best of all, it's thick, fluffy and soft.

For the Athleisure Lover

5. Urban Outfitters BDG Printed Fleece Jacket

Urban Outfitters

Associate Commerce Editor Natalie LaBarbera calls this her ultimate holiday gift: “I felt this fleece jacket at the Urban Outfitters holiday preview and it's SO soft! I think anyone would love unwrapping this, and it comes in a bunch of fun prints that you can easily pair with jeans for a casual look or even throw on over leggings or sweatpants if you're heading to a workout or running errands.” Comfy and stylish, this jacket is definitely the gift that keeps on giving.

For the Coffee Lover

6. Keurig K-Mini Single Serve Coffee Maker

Keurig

This mini coffee maker is a must for any coffee lover. Boasting more than 5,000 ratings, one shopper writes, "This Keurig is perfect for traveling. We put it in our carry-on luggage on the plane, and it has traveled with us to Cincinnati, New York, Washington, DC, Kansas City and Oklahoma City. We also travel with a milk frother. Hotel coffee has never tasted better using this small Keurig." Did I mention it's under $100?

A Comfortable Sweater

7. J. Crew Rollneck Sweater

J. Crew

This sweater from J. Crew will get you through the fall and winter season in style. The loose construction and breathability are a callout, and you can mix and match it with jeans, trousers and skirts for different looks. Personally, I adore this Pistachio Cream hue, but it comes in several other colors, so I recommend getting more than one while you're at it. Oh, and did I mention it's the peak '90s throwback?

A Creative Gift

8. Charmspring Morning/Night Starter Pack

Charmspring

Featuring 15 activity files that allow your child to learn about the importance of daily routines, Campbell also recommends this Charmspring Springboard, which puts responsibility at the forefront. It comes with over 150 curated tiles labeled with tasks such as cleaning up their toys and brushing their teeth, which, in turn, will help them structure their day, while also building their language development and communication skills. Who could ask for anything more?

For the Cleaner

9. Bissell Little Green Cleaner

Bissell

The viral Bissell Little Green Cleaner will definitely come in handy for your recipient if they have furry friends occupying their household. Its compact size gets into those hard-to-reach places, making it an efficient way to remove those stubborn stains you’ve been complaining about.

For the Teen Who Likes to Chill

10. Afuson Folding Chair

Afuson

Senior Editor Dana Dickey is recommending this folding chair bed. "This folding corduroy chair is so great for teen rooms because it folds out to be a little mattress," she tells me. Another reviewer calls it a "game-changer for small spaces," writing in their review, "he premium sponge filling is incredibly soft and supportive, making it ideal for long movie nights or afternoon naps. I love how sleek and modern it looks, and the durable fabric holds up beautifully to daily use." Plus, it comes in seven colors.

For the Fashionista

11. lululemon Slouchy Sling Bag

lululemon

This sling bag checks all the boxes: chic design, water-repellent fabric, strategically placed zipped exterior pockets and spacious interior. Plus, it’s super popular with PureWow readers since you can pair your leggings or wear them out for date night. The under-$70 price tag makes it one of the best fashion pickups for the fall and winter season.

For the Gum Lovers

12. Playo Gumball Machine

Playo

This gumball machine comes recommended by PureWow Editor-in-Chief Jillian Quint, who says it's a gift that any kid will love. Packed with 40 flavorful gumballs, all they have to do is put in a coin to see which color they get, and they'll automatically have a fruity treat in their possession. In fact, one Amazon shopper says their son doesn't even eat gum, but still enjoys it. "My kid doesn't eat gum yet, but he loves filling up the machine and emptying it. I'm glad that it is not coin-operated, and it's easy for a small child to open the lid and refill." Sounds like a winner to me.

For the Fragrance Lover

13. Boy Smells Eau De Parfum

Urban Outfitters

LaBarbera is also picking up a new scent for the season. "Boy Smells makes *so many* unique perfumes and I love that the scents are noticeable, but not overwhelming, and they smell a lot more expensive than they are, in my opinion. I recently got this Peachy Oud scent that has the perfect amount of spice to it to keep it from feeling too summery, but there are plenty to choose from depending on what your giftee prefers!"

For the Person Who Loves Comfort

14. Solei Sea Aspen Clogs

Solei Sea

I'm gifting these to myself because it's about time I replace my house slippers. Yes, I'm *that* person whose house shoes have to be as stylish as they are comfortable, and this pair from Solei Sea has been on my radar for a while. It's made with 100 percent vegan material, has built-in arch support *and* a padded footbed for premium comfort. They do, however, run small, so the brand recommends sizing up if you're in between sizes.

For the Collector

15. Funko Pop! Figurine

Funko

If you have a collector friend, they're sure to go insane over any and everything Funko Pop! related, and there are tons (and I do mean tons of options to choose from. In fact, the company just released a bunch of new figures for horror lovers with fan-favorite franchises, including The Rocky Horror Picture ShowHocus PocusChucky and more. There's even a Michael Jackson Thriller-themed figurine ($15), too! And if they aren't horror fans, then you always go with options in their other categories.

An Toy That Gets Them Moving

16. Soccer Bot Toy Soccer Set

Soccer Bot

VP of Editorial Candace Davison has this soccer bot on her gift list. "The Soccer Bot is a fun gift for tweens who want to sharpen their skills solo. It tracks the ball and has three speed modes—along with a built-in score tracker—to help improve your dribbling, ball control and overall speed, and it's nice that kids can play with it on their own." Sounds fun enough. Plus, it's an under-$75 buy.

For the Techy-Savvy Reader

17. Amazon Kindle Paperwhite

Amazon

If your recipient is a bookworm, they will get plenty of use out of the Kindle Paperwhite, which is new and improved with its easy navigation, bright display, thinner borders and faster page turning. Also offering a 10-week battery life, they will be able to connect it to any place with Bluetooth, which means they’ll be able to read on-the-go.

Associate Editor Sydney Meister got a chance to the Kindle Paperwhite last year, and noted that it transformed her workflow. “One of the standout features of the Kindle Scribe is its ability to convert handwritten notes to text. I often take handwritten notes during meetings or while brainstorming ideas, and with the Kindle, I can select a notebook, tap the “Share” button, and choose “Convert to text and email.” This feature is incredibly useful,” she writes, adding, “My favorite part, however, however, is the suite of organizational tools. I can create to-do lists using a variety of templates, including lists and calendars, to keep track of daily tasks.”

For the Sports Lover

18. NFL x Crocs Classic Lined Clog

NFL

My nephew loves two things—sports and the outdoors, which is why I'm sure he'll love these Philadelphia Eagles crocs—especially since the holidays fall close to the start of the playoffs. Best of all, this collection isn't limited to just the Eagles, as each NFL team has its own design, giving you plenty to choose from if you want to snag a pair of your own for the sports lover in your life.

For the Historian

19. 2025 Guinness Book of World Records

Guinness World Records

Another essential, according to Quint? This year's Guinness Book of World Records. "I maintain that the gift you can get ANY kid between the ages of six and 15 is that year’s Guinness Book of World Records," she says. As usual, this edition is jam-packed with facts in every category, providing a source of screen-free entertainment *and* a great bonding activity.

For the Manicure Lover

20. Olive & June Gel Builder Kit

Olive & June

SEO and Audience Development Editor Marissa Wu has the perfect gift recommendation for those who love a good manicure. "My favorite nail polish brand, Olive & June, just launched a builder gel line that's under $50 for a kit! There are tons of fun colors, too! Since it's gel, it might take a little finessing for someone to get used to the system, but once you've practiced, it's pretty easy. It does require a lamp (not included), but that kit is also under $100."

For the Germaphobe

21. Gemi Hand Sanitizer+Serum

Gemi

Wu also has this hand sanitizer on her gift list. "They will fall over to find a Gemi hand sanitizer serum in their holiday stocking. The scents are sublime, and the design makes you feel like you're in a Dutch master's painting. Also, the cap is genius. It rotates to cover the nozzle so it doesn't get dirty. " And at just $12 a pop, you can definitely grab the full collection for your giftee.

For the Decorator

22. Birthdate Candles

Birthdate Co.

Personalized and inclusive, this candle combines astrology, numerology and tarot all-in-one. It boasts a plethora of 5-star reviews and creates a fragrance that matches the fragrance of your recipient based on the day they were born. I’ll give it bonus points for being under $50 as well.

A Self-Care Gift

23. TheraBox Gift Box

Therabox

Philip Mutz, VP of News and Entertainment, personally recommends this gift box subscription from TheraBox, which gives you eight wellness products that total up to $200 in value every month for $45 a month. There are also other subscription plans available with extra discounts for the holiday season. For example, you can choose a three-month prepaid subscription that takes the price down to $42 a box, or a six-month prepaid subscription that totals to $40 a month. And if you're really committed, you can choose the 12-month subscription, which saves you $84 by taking the price down to $37 a month. Whatever plan you choose, just know you'll be well taken care of.

For the Makeup Lover

24. Revolution Beauty Advent Calendar

Revolution Beauty

I'm definitely getting my 15-year-old sister this Advent calendar from Revolution Beauty because she's always asking me for makeup. There are 24 days of beauty surprises, which include bestsellers like the brand's Pout Bomb shimmer lip gloss, their Beauty Icons edit palette and their loose baking powder. Thanks to RB's holiday sale, it's now marked down to $52, and it will give my sister enough products to last her a few months, making this a win-win for both of us.

A Fun Choice

25. Lush x Scooby Doo

Lush x Scooby Doo

And since I'm on the topic of gifts I'm giving my sister, I'm also snagging a few items from the Lush x Scooby Doo collection, as it combines all of her favorite things in one—self-care and classic cartoons. Whether it's fruity bath bombs or the Scooby Snacks body spray (pictured above), which has notes of caramel and cinnamon for what the brand describes as a "biscuit-y scent," this collection has it all (and then some).

For the Person Who is Always Cold

26. Quince Mongolian Cashmere Wrap

Quince

Beloved by PureWow readers for its versatility and comfort, this one-size-fits-all wrap is crafted with Mongolian cashmere and provides warmth no matter where your giftee is headed. Best of all, it has great layering potential as it can either be the focal point or complimentary accessory to whatever they’re wearing.

Best Skincare Giftset

27. Merit Mini Great Skincare Essentials Gift Set

Merit

This skincare essentials set from Merit is a must for any beauty lover. It comes with the brand's Instant Glow Serum, priming moisturizer and their new Double Cleanse face wash, and saves you money in the process, and it would cost $52 to purchase each item separately. Consider it the bang for your buck.

For the Anime Lover

28. Dragon Ball Super Bandai Dragon Goku

Dragon Ball Z

What do you get a 10-year-old who loves anime for Christmas? Simple, a Dragon Ball Z Goku figurine. This is just one of the gifts I'm grabbing for my nephew, and I can't wait to see his face light up on Christmas morning when he realizes I actually do listen to him when he tells me what he wants for his presents...especially when he sees I also paired this with a Naruto action figure.

An Affordable Cleaning Supply

29. Kitchenaid Cordless Vacuum

KitchenAid

Former Assistant Editor Delia Curtis also recommends getting this cordless vac as a gift for the holidays. “This vacuum is a Jennifer Garner fav. It’s super compact, entirely cordless and incredibly convenient for cleaning hard-to-reach spaces. It makes cleaning, especially the kitchen, a breeze. Did flour get everywhere while you were baking? Not a problem. Coffee grounds stuck between the tiles? Easy.”

A Self-Care Gift

30. Flick Vibrator Ring

Flick

Senior Editor Dana Dickey suggests this vibrator ring for a little personal stimulation this holiday season. “I’m amused by this $68 ring that's actually a personal stimulation device...I think it's the perfect ‘stocking stuffer’ and also a way to introduce vibrators into your relationship if your partner is a little bashful (or as a bridal shower gift).” Adjustable and quiet, it comes in two different colors.

For the Scented Candle Enthusiast

31. Ranavat Jasmine Candle

Ranavat

Executive Editor Catrina Yohay says this beautiful candle is “no ordinary one” compared to the rest. “This...is no ordinary candle. I first fell in love with Ranavat's signature jasmine scent through its haircare products, and when I discovered this candle, all bets were off. The packaging is STUNNING—I get a dopamine hit every time I look at the gorgeous purple glass holder. And the scent is warm, soothing and downright lovely. It's become my go-to housewarming/hostess/just-because gift, and I plan on wrapping up a few for the holidays this year as well. It feels luxe and high-end without totally breaking the bank. Perfect for your sister, best friend, mother-in-law and beyond.”

A Gift for Lazy Days

32. Glerups Slip-On

Glerups

Once upon a time, I chose heels; nowadays, I choose comfortable shoes that I can easily walk around in all day. I recently added these slip-on shoes to my lineup, which are as cozy as they are stylish. I love how they’re made with natural wool in the upper (they smell amazing), and the rubber outsole provides a solid amount of grip and traction that makes them easy to walk in. These will work for anybody who loves comfort, such as myself.

An Affordable Gift

33. Body Restore Aromatherapy Shower Steamers

Body Restore

If relaxation is the goal for your recipient, they will certainly enjoy these shower steamers. Made with pure essential oils, this gift box comes with 30 different choices in a variety of scents, including jasmine, grapefruit, lavender and eucalyptus.

Best Fitness Gift

34. Zelus Weighted Vest

Zelus

In case you haven't heard, all the hot moms are wearing weighted vests for their efficiency and ability to give you a good workout without you even having to do anything extra. Designed for strength training, running and muscle building, one reviewer says, "I've been using this weighted vest for a few weeks now, and it's been a game changer for my training. The weight is distributed evenly, which makes it comfortable to wear during bodyweight exercises, running or even walking for some extra resistance." There are multiple weights to choose from, ranging from six pounds to 30 pounds, so you can progress at your own speed.
