18 Classic Presents From Target Perfect For Secret Santa

pexels.com

Buying Christmas presents is HARD. I'm sure we can all relate. Sometimes you don't know what to get people and even if you do, you don't want to go overboard and spend a thousand dollars on them, so here are a few cheap ideas from our FAVORITE place... aka Target.

1. Scarf

Not gonna lie, it's cold af outside this time of year. A scarf covers up a part of the body that doesn't normally get covered up regularly.

2. Something for their pet

Dog's get cold too, get them booties for their feet

A dog bandanna? CUTE.

A new leash? ADORABLE

3. Bath Accessories

Bath fizzers.

Bath bombs.

Bath salts.

4. Travel Mug

We SURVIVE off of caffeine. I'm not a coffee drinker, however, I am able to find a source of caffeine in chais.

But I am also a broke college student who loves to save the environment. Travel mugs give you a discount AND save the environment. It's a win-win situation.

5. Face Mask

A 3-step face mask to get rid of all of my problems is exactly what I need.

6. Gift Card

Whether you buy a gift card to Target or get one there for a coffee shop, we will be internally grateful.

7. Fuzzy Blanket

Any color, any size, any degree of fluffiness, I will never have too many blankets.

8. Advent Calendar

Who doesn't love a countdown for the holidays?

You could literally use this for any holiday (as long as it comes before the 25th)

9. Fuzzy Socks

Even better... A FUZZY SOCK ADVENT CALENDAR.

10. Beauty Kit

Dare I speak too soon.

A BEAUTY ADVENT CALENDAR?

Iconic.

11. Ugly Sweater

Try and tell that walrus that this ISN'T the cutest ugly sweater you've ever seen.

12. Card/Board Games

You can never go wrong with a classic game like this.

13. Pajamas

Pajamas for everyone in the family, even the pooch!

14. Soap

Something that smells good and gets the job done.

15. Gingerbread Kit

Who doesn't want to build together a mini village only to destroy it and eat it all up.

16. Stuffed Animal

Does your Secret Santa love "Moana?" Give them this perfect Hei Hei stuffed animal. If not? Still get it for them, because Hei Hei is adorable.

17. CD

You could get them an actual CD of an artist they love... oooor you could get this hilarious "Bob's Burgers" album.

18. Pillow

Just a tiny pillow to get you in the mood for the holiday's.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Top 20 Thoughts College Students Have During Finals

The ultimate list and gif guide to a college student's brain during finals.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
