Quick Gifts To Get During These Final Days ‘Til Xmas
There’s less than a week to go until Christmas, and even though Mariah Carey sang “All I Want For Christmas is You,” that is not a true statement for all. There’s the office Secret Santa event, friends Christmas party, and any number of events that require a gift.
The easiest last-minute gift is the tried and true gift card, but according to CNN, “as much as $21 billion of unspent money tied up in unused and lost gift cards.”
Giving cash is just as impersonal. Picking out a more thoughtful gift with so little time left may be a tall order, but BLACK ENTERPRISE has got you covered. Here are a few last-minute gift ideas for those who didn’t make it onto your naughty list.
