Gift Guide: Under-$15 Options for a Secret Santa Swap

by Alison Syrett Cleary


Secret Santa swaps are all fun and games until you get stuck with the toughest person to shop for. Then, as if picking out a thoughtful, somewhat personalized present isn't hard enough, you've got to do so while adhering to an impossibly low budget (because who does a sky's-the-limit Secret Santa?) and stressing over the big group exchange. Everyone sees what everyone picked out, so going in with something lame is a million times more awkward than usual. The pressure is on.

Chances are, too, that someone in your crew's going to cheat a little (there's no way that embossed leather pouch cost less than $15), and another's going to flaunt her Martha Stewart-like skills by hand-knitting socks or making French macarons from scratch (SERIOUSLY?!). Good thing, then, that you'll have one of the next-level presents from the slideshow above to fall back on, all under $15-and many under $10!- and available online now. Click through to be the best Secret Santa ever.
