Tis the season for hot cocoa, Holiday parties, and white elephant gift exchanges! I have received quite a few requests in particular for the best white elephant gifts under $30. Items that can appeal to a wide range of women and are tried and true favorites.
While putting together this list I immediately thought of one of the group texts I am a part of. I have a group texts with my influencer friends, my friends from my time at Tory Burch, my college girlfriends, my friends from San Francisco, and then this one group text that is a magical mix of my college girlfriends and many of their high school friends that I have met over the last 20 years. This particular group text is a jumble of Happy Birthday texts, newborn pictures, and fun life updates. Unlike all of my other group texts, there is lots of ‘omg I just got this lipgloss and I think you would all love it’ types of messages. It’s also the place many of us turn when we need a new pair of running leggings, or want to know if anyone has recently bought sunglasses that they love.
As I was starting this post, as one of our favorites topics is white elephant exchanges, I knew I should ask them for recommendations. Well as usual, this delightful, fun, and witty group of women didn’t disappoint. Below are the best under $30 white elephant gifts – a combination of my own personal picks plus the all-time favorites from some of my nearest and dearest!
Maybe I am showing my age, but there is nothing better than a great hand soap!
Bombas not only makes incredible socks, they also give back. Even more reason to support during the season of giving! Also shop the three pack on sale for $27 here through today only.
This cookbook has over 100 no-recipe recipes and is currently $15 for a limited time here.
Candles are a safe choice when it comes to a gift exchange, especially if you don’t know everyone or it is a group with diverse interests! This one is top of my list.
