As we approach the holiday season, which can be described as the most wonderful time of the year, gift exchanging starts to begin. As much as we all wish we could slather our friends, family, and loved with expensive luxury items, we sadly cannot afford to buy our best friend a new car for Christmas. If you are looking for some affordable Christmas ideas then keep reading, so you can find items that both your friends and your wallet will love.

1. Cabin socks.

You can find these at Dick Sporting Goods with a price of 2 for $13.

2. Gourmet chocolates.

Check your local grocery store for gourmet chocolate gift sets that everyone enjoys.

3. Caramels. 

Anything ranging from gourmet caramel sauce to your favorite caramel candies.

4. Candy canes.

Since it's the most jolly time of the year, why not gift some inexpensive, yet traditional sweet treats?

5. A new speaker.

If you are like me and enjoy listening to music, but go through headphones like they're water, then invest in a new portable speaker or some inexpensive headphones since everyone needs a backup.

6. Coffee mugs. 

No matter if your friends are the worlds biggest coffee drinkers or they despise all forms of caffeine, a coffee mug is a great idea since it can be used for almost any drink. Plus the more mugs you own, the merrier and the less amount of dishes you have to do.

7. Customized blanket.

This is a great idea for a loved one or a parent. As the temperatures drop, the demand for blankets increase, so what better way to tell someone you love them than purchasing a blanket with their face on it?

8. Shower essentials.

If you are into Bath & Body Works products or you are a lover of all things shower essentials, then picking out a holiday scent lotion, shower gel, or body spritz is the way to go.

9. A photo frame.

This is a great way to be creative and make an inexpensive sentimental gift for the ones you love the most.

10. A classic USA Football.

These are perfect for post-dinner family gatherings!

11. Scented candles.

Everyone loves the smell of a fresh pine tree.

12. A cookbook.

Christmas cookies galore!

13. An automatic bottle/can opener.

So popping the champagne can be a little easier!

14. A heated blanket.

This is an essential for staying warm on cold and snowy nights.

15. A holiday pajama set.

Even better if you can match with your siblings!

16. Customized jewelry.

Get it with your birthstone!

17. Inspirational wall decor.

Everyone loves to see a feel good message!

18. Sugar lip caramel hydrating ball.

Great for kissing under the mistletoe!

19. Kitchen Essentials.

For when you move into your next college apartment!

20. A framed letter board.

So you can finally be hip!

21. A waffle maker.

Everyone loves waffles on a Saturday morning!

22.Bath salts/ bath bombs.

The perfect way to wind down at night.

23. A popcorn popper.

For all those Christmas movies you'll be watching!

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and are looking forward to a happy New Year!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
