11 Unique Gifts in 2022

Ready or not! The holiday season is here.

The holiday season is the best time of the year for many people. It's a time to give thanks, see extended family, and enjoy cozy indoor activities.

On the other hand, it can be the most stressful time of the year for many people. Shopping for multiple people, or even one person, can become very frustrating for many reasons, such as financial issues and not knowing what to buy. Some people are difficult to shop for, so I have picked the most practical gifts that anyone would appreciate.

1. 6ft charging cable

I believe this is the most practical gift for anyone, which is why it is number one. Regardless if they have an iPhone or Android, a six-foot charging cable will allow them to use their phone while it is charging across the room.

2. Planner

Using a planner is a great gift to give someone, because everyone has some sort of schedule. I was given a planner as a gift recently, and have used it every day. Although one can use their phone to plan their schedule, writing things down on paper leads to better memory.

3. Electric blanket

For those who claim to be cold all of the time, an electric blanket would be the perfect gift. Cold morning drives or being cold on the couch is now a thing of the past.

4. Cushioned socks

This is another great gift for someone to use in the cold winter months. Cushioned socks not only keep your feet warm in low temperatures but are also super comfortable for lounging inside.

5. Eye mask

You may believe these are only worn in movies, but eye masks are great for getting sleep for many reasons. Eye masks are a lifesaver for those who suffer from migraines or headaches. Taking a nap during the day would also be a breeze with this gift.

6. Fabric Steamer

I was given a fabric steamer as a gift before I left for college. I had no idea that I would use it almost every day. A steamer is relatively super quick and easy to use. This is a great gift for adults of all ages.

7. Umbrella

Not too many people seem to carry umbrellas with them. I will admit that I do not check the weather every day, but keeping an umbrella in the car would be a great way to stay dry when you forget to wear a jacket!

8. Food containers

The holiday season makes this gift a must-have for those who host gatherings. Because family and friends from all over gather together, food containers are great for storing leftovers.

9. Keurig coffee maker

A Keurig coffee maker is a great gift for those who love drinking coffee. As a big coffee drinker myself, this may be my favorite and most practical gift I have ever received. There are many different types of Keurigs to buy depending on if they enjoy it hot, cold, or both.

10. Reusable Stainless Steel Straws

It may not be the most luxurious gift, but stainless steel straws are great for the planet and can be used at home or on the go!

11. A Deep Tissue Massage Gun

Last but not least, the massage gun. I had no idea how great this was until I tried it myself. This is an amazing gift for anyone who exercises or has tense muscles from other factors.

Shopping for others during the holidays does not have to be something to dread. Although some people seem impossible to shop for, these practical gifts are the perfect way to give them something useful and show them how important they are to you.

Be Well, Auburn.
