These Under-£50 Gifts Will Hit The Sweet Spot

The £50 price tag marks a significant threshold when it applies to gifts. Plunking down something close to that number says a lot of things to your recipient, like, “This gift is the equivalent of three Daylesford salads” and “I forewent a new pair of leggings so you could have something nice this year.” No matter where the £50-and-under gift falls on the hierarchy of your holiday shopping list, we’re here to make sure you have the coolest, most thoughtful (and did we mention wow-inducing?) gewgaw out there.

Depending on your budget, the £50 gift could be the splashiest present on your list, or it could be what you’re packing up and shipping out in multiples to your five closest friends. Whether it’s a kooky oven mitt, a pack of Y2K gel pens, or a chunky knit balaclava, we’ve got the goods to ensure you get the best-present-giver award this season.
