These are Christmas gift ideas under $50 that you can get for kids, friends and family. Think about what they might like and go for it!

Let’s face it, as you walk through the mall or browse the internet, it can be hard to avoid feeling like you have to buy something–anything–for everyone on your list. But there is an alternative; Here are some ideas for Christmas gifts that won’t put too much pressure on your bank account.

1) A box of chocolates

You know they’ll enjoy this classic treat without breaking the bank, but get creative. Get them chocolates or candy from their favorite place or country!

2) A vinyl record of their favorite artist

This gives them something fresh while staying under budget. Records have made a total comeback. People love to display their record and play them on special occasion for their guests. Add to their collection and they will be super grateful.

3) A gift card to their favorite store

This is a sure bet and lets them pick something special for themselves. We all have those years where we prefer to receive cash or a gift card over a specific gift. This will give your loved one the opportunity to take their time to find something they really want or need!

4)A family board game

As we’ve seen in recent years, board games can be both affordable and incredibly popular. Pick one that suits the taste of your loved ones (and friends), but be careful, some of these modern board games are known to breed fierce competition.

5)A family photo album

If you’re like me, it can be hard to scrapbook with small children. An early Christmas gift for the kids could be a family photo album that captures some of their favorite moments this year.

Anyone who enjoys or collects coffee mugs will absolutely love this idea! Go through your pictures and find the best one from this year. Then, have it printed on a mug–you can have fun picking out which pictures to use and how they appear on the mug.

These are some great Christmas gift ideas under $50 that anyone will love!
