Adorve Ocean Rugged Apple Watch Band

There are some really nice Apple Watch bands out there, and I would rather swap those out with something quite affordable like this when working out or tackling a project. This sort of band is inexpensive and breatheable, making it a solid option that just about anyone will appreciate having in their collection.

Baseus Enercore 67W Retractable USB-C Charger

This year we’ve seen a lot of charging gear hit the market with built-in retractable cables, and I’m here for it. I’ve been using standalone retractable cables for quite some time, and having a charger with an integrated USB-C cable is even better. This offering does that and also packs two backup Type-C ports as well.

LISEN Spring-Loaded Cable Clips

Everyone hates having to deal with cables, but we all need them when wireless solutions simply aren’t an option. Wherever I have them in my home, I tend to find a way to tidy them up. That’s why I personally like and highly recommend cable clips like this. Whether it be for yourself or as a gift for someone else this holiday season.

Awww, the CANARY knife. A wonderful, beloved box cutter tool with a serrated Japanese stainless steel blade designed to open your packages and not your fingers. 

• CANARY Cardboard Cutter $9

Arguably the best collector items for any Nintendo fan on your list in the sub $30 category, the new Donkey Kong and Pauline amiibo from the Donkey Kong Bananza is my fav, but some of the other new and more affordable models are a great option too. 

• amiibo – Yunobo: The Legend of Zelda $20 (Reg. $30)
• amiibo – Sidon: The Legend of Zelda $20 (Reg. $30)
• amiibo- Sylux Metroid Prime 4: Beyond Series $30
• And even more…

Nulaxy Metal MagSafe Stand

There are loads of MagSafe stands out there, but this one is among my favorites, especially on the more affordable side of things. There is something about the silver colorway and aluminum build that screams Apple to me. If Apple made something like this would be it be nicer? Probably, but this gets close for a low price, at least from my perspective anyway.

Linkind Smart Plugs/Bulbs

Want to give the gift of a smarter home to your loved ones? Well, with Linkind smart devices, you can expand your loved one’s home life with more convenience and even greater ambiance.

FUNBRO Slim Pocket Knife

While you generally won’t find me carrying a pocket knife everywhere I go, if I did, it would probably be something like this. I love the slim style that to my eye, mirrors the look of a pen more than a knife. Best of all, the price doesn’t disappoint either.
