We can all agree our loved ones deserve the world, but as a college student, our bank accounts can’t support this idea.
- Your Parents
Your mom and dad or guardian is most likely your rock. They support you, feed you, loving you unconditionally. While you are away at school, they miss you dearly and always call to check in. The perfect gift on a budget is a nice framed picture of you with them! Printing out the picture usually costs less than 50 cents and you can pick out a nice frame from the dollar store!
- Your Grandparents
Grandma and Grandpa loved watching you grow up and change throughout the year. If you had a childhood like mine, they were your babysitters while mom and dad went to work. Now, they just wish you spent more time with them. An awesome idea for grandma and grandpa is to dedicate one day where you spend the whole day together, just like the old days.
- Your Sibling
Chances are your sibling is probably broke too. While mom would love to see you hug it out, that’s not really a present for you and your sibling. The best idea is to talk it over before Christmas and mutually decide to not gift each other this year.
- Your Best Friend
You know you can’t slack on buying a present for the bestie. They are always there to hang out with, lend an ear, or cause trouble together. A fun pair of socks from Target and box of movie candy are a good way to go! Both are sweet, and once the candy is gone, they’ll always have the socks to think of you.
- Your Significant Other
Your special someone who’s your world. A coupon book is sure to make their holiday! The coupons can be cashed in for trips for ice cream, extra hugs and kisses, a movie on you, or an extra special date night. It’s perfect for when you do have some more cash, but still want them to feel appreciated.
