if you want to give good gifts on a budget my best advice would be to get creative. you could get some nice pouches and fill them up with like drugstore products (face masks, lipbalms etc) or accessories or even snacks! i did that for two friends last christmas and i knitted the pouches myself. another idea would be getting them a book, even secondhand, and write a note inside. anything handmade or personalised like that will surely be appreciated <3

yeah I do think that's a good idea and I've been trying to get creative lately, I tried to make some bracelets out of some leftover yarn my roommate had lol, thanks a lot for the idea though, I never thought about face masks and stuff, I love it

people often overthink presents but the best ones I’ve had are usually small. Recently my bf got me Fanta flavours I love and it moved me that he remembered. Handmade gifts are always appreciated, although hard if it’s last minute! Nice soap/body stuff, a great candle, a little plant, or even just flowers and a card. A nice bound notebook with a cute pen. gift cards are often looked down on, but if they’re specific enough to someone’s taste they can be great. For example do they like cinema? cause lots of indie cinemas do gift cards! I play switch so Nintendo game cards are ways appreciated, as are any bookshop card (especially indie ones). All of these are good and easy gifts!

I'm terrible at gift giving, my go to is to get my friends custom t-shirts with like cute memes or stuff they like. It’s usually pretty inexpensive where I live (I could get one for less than five american dollar). Also personalised letters are a great gift and maybe a book to go with it too.

i used to look up to my friends’ older siblings and think wow i can’t wait to become as cool as them one day. then when i became a teen and i was so shy and cared too much about what others thought of me and the rise of social media didn’t help at all. but now i think back at the little diva i was and she would want me to feel confident, to be unique and happy and to keep being kind to others. her opinion is the only one that matters to me now
