Christmas is soon right around the corner, and a lot of students fear that they won’t have enough time or money for Christmas presents.<br />
But fret not, dear reader, Christmas gifts do not need to be overly expensive! Here are some of the ideas that we collected for cheap and<br />
affordable gifts for you and your broke student friends!<br />
Write a personal coupon! It could be anything from doing an act of service for a loved one, or a small experience together!<br />
Acts of service gift ideas:<br />
• Babysitting.<br />
• Do weekly groceries.<br />
• Help cleaning the kitchen/living room/car.<br />
• Build Ikea furniture.<br />
• Shovel snow.<br />
Activities to do together:<br />
• Have a baking day.<br />
• Go on a hike with a bonfire.<br />
• A trip to a cabin.<br />
• Go ice skating in the city.<br />
• Movie night at home, with popcorn included ;)<br />
If you are into arts, crafts or perhaps baking, why<br />
not make something creative for this Christmas!<br />
Something homemade:<br />
• Christmas cards.<br />
• A drawing or painting.<br />
• A knitted or crocheted scarf.<br />
• A box with baked goods! Christmas cookies like<br />
gingerbread is always appreciated!<br />
• Homemade scrub recipe for hands & lip in a jar.<br />
• Taco seasoning, already mixed in a jar.<br />
• Chocolate chip cake/mug cake.<br />
And then we have the<br />
practical/useful gifts:<br />
• Candles.<br />
• Tea/coffee.<br />
• Soap.<br />
• Socks.<br />
• Umbrella.<br />
• Notebooks/stationaries/art supplies.<br />
• Extra batteries. You never know<br />
when you need them!<br />
