These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Gifts Under $500
1) 42 Gallon Dual Composting Tumbler
Designed for continuous composting, the tumbler has two compartments so you’re always adding your new compost material to a fresh empty bin—while the other side is busy at work.
2) Handbag Light
SOI puts an end to blindly rummaging through your purse or backpack to find keys, wallet, or a pen. This clever little 1.5 ounce light turns on when it senses your hand. Battery operated and easy to transfer from bag to bag, SOI is the world’s first automatic bag light.
3) Paint & Finish Preservation Spray
Argon gas makes for a better approach to leftover paint storage. It keeps oil-based paints, varnishes, and stains in freshly-opened-can shape and looking like new. A spray of argon gas creates a barrier between the liquid and the air inside an open can. This prevents the finish from curing, yellowing, or skinning-over. Argon is non-toxic, non-flammable, and inert, so it won’t react to other chemicals.
4) Pill Bag Refill - 400 Pack
Dispense your pills into small, biodegradable baggies. These 400 packets are perfect for separating your pills and vitamins into simple-to-take doses. You can label the bags, too, if needed.
5) Electricity-Free Clothing Steamer Kit
With an InstaSteam starter kit stowed in your bag, you can pull together a perfectly pressed look when on the fly—literally—without needing access to an outlet. Fill the pod with water and put it in a garment bag. It creates wrinkle-smoothing steam in minutes and is disposable when the job is done.
