Holiday Gift Baskets

A holiday gift basket may seem like a convenient option, but it’s often overpriced for what you get. Plus, not everything in the basket may be wanted or used. If you like the idea of giving a gift basket, you could purchase and arrange the items yourself to assemble a more thoughtful and budget-friendly personalized gift basket.

Festive Fashion

Ugly Christmas sweaters and matching family pajama sets might look glamorous and fun, but the investment isn’t always worth the hype. Festive fashion often has limited use, as you’re unlikely to wear them again until next year (if at all). The cost may not justify the lower number of times they’re worn.

Outdoor Holiday Decor

Outdoor holiday decor is on sale right now on Walmart’s website. However, you’re much more likely to get a better deal after the holidays. Retailers will mark holiday decor down even more to clear inventory and make room for the next holiday.

Ready-To-Gift Christmas Stockings

Ready-to-gift Christmas stockings are another convenient option, but they’re overpriced and usually contain low-quality items. On Walmart’s website, the pre-filled Christmas stockings don’t have good reviews, and shoppers commented that the stockings are small and the item doesn’t resemble what’s shown in the photo.

Holiday Kitchenware

Are you hosting this year? It may be tempting to go all-out and purchase holiday-themed bakeware, serveware and other kitchen items, but it’s a big investment for something you’ll only be using a few weeks (or once) out of the year. Your everyday kitchen items will work just as well, and you can invest more in a few high-quality pieces instead to make it feel more festive.

Editor’s note: Pricing and availability may vary depending on location.
