‘Tis the season to start stocking up on holiday gifts. I like to start my shopping list in the fall and buy items early. After all, waiting until the last minute can often mean missing out on some of the best items and unbeatable prices. Discount stores have so many under-$25 gifts this month. Your recipient will think you spent at least twice as much. What should you buy? Here are the 7 best under-$25 gifts from T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, and HomeGoods. The best news is, you can order all of these items online.

1
Molton Brown Hand Lotion

MOLTON BROWN 10oz Festive Frankincense And Allspice Hand Cream
TJ Maxx

 

Molton Brown is a bougie British brand that costs a fortune, unless you find it at T.J. Maxx, which I have. The Molton Brown 10oz Festive Frankincense and Allspice Hand Lotion is $24.99 online and likely less in-store. At department stores, you will pay at least $37 for the same bottle.

A Kendra Scott Necklace

KENDRA SCOTT Teo Gold Abalone Shell Necklace
TJ Maxx

T.J. Maxx is also a great place to shop for designer costume jewelry without spending a fortune. This gorgeous Kendra Scott Gold Abalone Shell Necklace is such a pretty option for $24.99. Similar styles cost $70 and up on the designer’s website.

Coffee Table Books

SIMON & SCHUSTER Lodge Book
Marshalls

Coffee table books are a great gift idea for the person who has everything and wants nothing. There are lots of titles to choose from at Marshalls that are below retail price, including the book Lodge for $24.99, perfect for anyone who appreciates rustic and cozy aesthetics. Or, if you are shopping for a chef, grab Around The Table.

Sand + Fog Fragrances

SAND AND FOG 3.38oz Vanilla And Amber Eau De Toilette
Marshalls

Sand + Fog is a great brand you can find at Marshalls that looks and feels expensive but isn’t. This Vanilla & Amber eau de toilette is an easy choice for someone who likes sweet, softly warm scents and wants a generous bottle rather than a tiny sampler. Pick it up for $16.99.

5
NEST Candles

If you are buying candles as a gift, look for boxed, name-brand options. Recently, my HomeGoods store has been carrying many NEST scents, including this Crystallized Ginger & Vanilla Bean scent. Each is $24.99 and retails for about double at other stores.

Pampering Basket Goodies

You can put together a great pampering spa basket with goodies from HomeGoods. You can’t go wrong with the bath aisle, which has everything from loofahs and scrub globes to bubble bath and bath bombs. And they are all priced super low.

Sand + Fog Gift Sets
