Need to get your hands on a list of the best Christmas presents under $30? I’ll do you one better – I’m going to start off this gift buying guide with the best Christmas gifts under $10!

Best, Cheap Christmas Gifts Under $10
Need to know what are not only cheap Christmas gifts, but ones that will amaze and inspire the person you’re buying for?

Because, let’s be honest – not all cheap Christmas gifts are created equal. Below, you’ll find my personal list of goodies that will leave a sparkle in your recipient’s eyes.

Psst: we all know Amazon and sellers love to change their prices. SO, these gifts all met the spending thresholds when I first picked them out, but may have changed by a few bucks in the meantime. 
Beef Jerky-Making Kit: Do they like beef jerky, or even just tinkering away in the kitchen? Here's a kit to make some of their own beef jerky!  Genuine Lava Rock Bracelet Oil Diffuser: This lava rock essential oil diffuser bracelet is pretty cool. Last-Word Bookmark: This bookmark would be great for a reader in your life — especially good for when reading the bible and you need to know what verse you stop on (since they're so close together, and it can take more than one reading session to get through a page)! Siberian Mushroom Soap: I think this soap with wine and spices looks interesting enough to try. Wine Glass Markers: Wine glass markers are a great gift for someone who enjoys entertaining(or these Customizable slate win markers that you can use an endless number of times).   Frothing Pitcher and Decorating Pen: Is your guy a frother?

Waterproof Notepad and Pencil: I have this exact one, and let me tell you how it's been a game-changer in our household. But not what you might think for! My husband started writing love messages on it while he was in his shower, and then when I shower, I get to read them + add a message for him. Super fun! Fitness Dice: Help your workout buff spice up their workout routine with a set of fitness dice. Reusable Snack and Freezer Bags: Whether it's these reusable snack bags, a set of reusable freezer bags, or these ones with little holders, reusable bags will both cut down on waste AND save them money.

Bullet Journal: While you're at it, why not get them started on bullet journaling? Try this one, too.

Escape Room in a Box: Create a really fun date night for your couple friend with this Escape Room in a Box: The Werewolf Experiment. A mad scientist is on the loose, and you’ve got to solve 19 puzzles together or else…you turn into werewolves (that mad scientist sounds cranky! He probably just couldn’t get his kids to sleep…).
