What is the year end festive season without gifts?<\/p>\n

Christmas celebrations, ‘virtual’ office parties and New Year countdowns means that during this time of the year, you’re surely busy scraping every last penny and drawing up an elaborate plan on how to buy presents without breaking your bank account.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve put together a list of 15 gifts you can get everyone on your list – yes, everyone makes the cut – and you can easily get any of these items under RM30 or less if you make use of promo vouchers<\/a>, so don\u2019t worry about going broke this festive season:<\/p>\n

<\/span>1.\u00a0Phone holder\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"phone<\/p>\n

It\u2019s impossible to <\/span>go wrong with this. It\u2019s 2021. Phones are no longer a luxury, they are a necessity. Most people can live without anything, but not their phones. <\/span>Phone holders or stands are universal gifts for people in every age group, regardless of gender, interests, religion, or age.<\/p>\n

<\/span>2.\u00a0Coasters\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"coasters<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Coasters are a great gift – especially for that one friend with OCD and cannot stand water ringlets on the table. It\u2019s useful for house parties and can also be used on a daily basis. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>3. USB hub \u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span>4. Powerbank<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"power<\/p>\n

When you own a smartphone, you also own a powerbank – there\u2019s no way around it – especially if you\u2019re always out and about. Malaysians are addicted to the likes of Facebook and Instagram, and all that photos and videos can drain your battery really fast. <\/span>Powerbanks are great gifts because they help keep the battery charged at all times and keeps everyone connected!<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>5.\u00a0Make-up bag<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"make<\/p>\n

Honestly, any kind of storage bag is a useful gift. From the clutter on our desks, on our grooming table, the kitchen, the bathroom, the TV console, to packing up that suitcase during a holiday – they are helpful when it comes to organising and removing clutter.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>6.\u00a0Water bottle\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"gifts<\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to stay hydrated, and having a water bottle with you at all times will remind you to get your daily water intake. A nice water bottle is a thoughtful gift that your friends that bring to the gym or to work every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>7. Reusable straws\u00a0 \u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"gifts<\/a><\/p>\n

More and more people are turning into environmentalists to do their part in saving the planet. Get onboard the green train by gifting your friend this useful kit that’s great if you are out and about,\u00a0 and need to grab a drink.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>8. Indoor miniature plants<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

House plants are great for busy city workers who don’t have the time or the space to keep a lush green garden at homes. The growing popularity of miniature succulents and ferns that can thrive in indoor environments means this gift will surely bring positive vibes to your friends and colleagues.<\/p>\n

<\/span>9. Portable hand sanitisers<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span>10.\u00a0Pen holder\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"pen<\/p>\n

Whether you have an office job, running your own business, or regularly working from home, a pen holder can help to organise all the clutter on your desk. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>11.\u00a0Bluetooth speaker\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"bluetooth<\/p>\n

There will be plenty of parties during Christmas, and music is the life of any party. A bluetooth speaker is a great gift that can be used all year round for any kind of party or gathering with family or friends – even during intimate dinners.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>12. Face sheet masks<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span>13.\u00a0Pocket trivia games<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"gifts<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Ideal gift for the year end filled with holidays and family gatherings. You can’t go wrong with a party card game. It\u2019s compact and mobile – and you can choose from a wide range of categories like movies, sports, music and more. <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>14.\u00a0Shoe storage bag\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

\"shoes<\/p>\n

This is a great gift for someone who loves outdoor activities like football, hiking, bowling, dancing – or simply for anyone who has a lot of shoes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>15. Flash drive<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n
