If you’re trying to save this season, we’ve pulled together a host of fantastic gifts you can buy for less than $100, ranging from e-readers to Instant Pots.
Believe it or not, not every holiday season requires you to break your budget in order to obtain that perfect gift, especially when some of today’s best tech can be had for less than a Benjamin.
If you’re on the hunt for something affordable this year, we at The Verge have come up with a selection of great gifts catered toward a range of passions, all of which you can buy for $100 or less. We’ve chosen gifts fit for book lovers, including Amazon’s new Kindle ($100) as well an annual pass ($80) that’s ideal for those who prefer to get lost in the woods rather than read. We’ve also included a few budget picks for gamers, such as Govee’s immersive backlights ($70) and 8Bitdo’s Pro 2 controller ($50) along with a classic thermos ($52) for those looking to eschew their tech tendencies and gift something a bit more analog.
Take a look at the assortment of ideas below and see if you can find the right gift — or even just a little inspiration — ahead of the holidays.
