Last Minute Holiday Gifts for Teens and College Kids
1. Tile Mate – Key Finder. Phone Finder. Anything Finder
2. Jack Black Skin Care This is our new favorite toiletries brand for guys and we think this shaving set is the perfect trio that your son will want to use to keep his skin in top shape. BTW, we LOVE the lip balms for guys and girls, so check those out, too.
Purchase ASAP – currently in stock, but supplies are running low!
3. Project Repat Twin Size Custom T-Shirt Quilt Voucher If you want to give your teen a voucher for a twin size Project Repat T-shirt quilt, here’s where you can buy it on Amazon. After the holidays you can go through that stack of t-shirts, together, to make their custom t-shirt quilt that will be a sentimental and practical blanket they can take with them to college. Pay $89.99 for the voucher (regular price $109.99).
4. Yeti Insulated Mug There’s nothing quite like drinking hot coffee from one of the iconic YETI insulted travel mugs. They come in all sizes and colors and will be something your teen or college kid would absolutely love to receive.
Some colors arrive after Christmas, choose various colors for various arrival dates. Some are still available to arrive before Christmas!
5. Allbirds Shoes We simply cannot say enough fantastic things about these shoes for both guys and girls. They are available in several styles – we prefer the lace up – and colors. They are extremely lightweight and, get this, they are machine washable. This is our very favorite shoe of all time!
Order today for guaranteed delivery by 12/24!
6. Kendra Scott Jewelry We think this delicate bracelet is very pretty but take a look at all of Kendra Scott’s bestsellers before you decide.
Free shipping, order by 12/18 for delivery 12/24. Take 15% off of your first purchase with code RRB9SMPC72
7. Photo Gifts Looking for a personalized gift for your teen but don’t have a lot of time to order one? Did you know that your local CVS can be your one-stop shop for photo gifts? CVS offers a wide variety of presents and you can build your gift at home and pick it up in the store when you dash in for more wrapping paper and tape. We think putting a photo of your family – or just the family dog – would be a perfect gift for your teen to enjoy now or to take with them to college next fall.
Exclusive! 30% Off Orders of $30+ or 50% Off $60+ Photo Orders
8. Sunrise Alarm Clock Waking up for an early class is brutal for teens but, with this LED alarm clock, they can customize the color of the light to simulate sunrise and they can add nature sounds for a more blissful morning. It also has an FM radio and, with eight color options, can serve as a bedside table lamp, too.
9. Not Parent Approved If your family loves to play card or board games but Cards Against Humanity is a little too “adult” for tweens or young teens, this game may be for you. It’s is an award-winner, super popular, and is appropriate for everyone from little kids to grandparents.
10. Microwave Popcorn Popper This ingenious popper makes cooking a fresh batch of popcorn a snap without the chemicals that exist in the packaged variety. You don’t need to add oil for cooking but there is an easy method for adding a bit of butter that cooks along with the popcorn, if your teen can’t imagine popcorn without it. (We get that, too!)
11. Travel Neck Support Does your teen or college student have a long airplane trip in their future? This neck support is soft and is much easier to transport than those bulkier, collar-type cushions (and much less geeky-looking, too.)
Currently on sale for $19.99!
12.Vineyard Vines Maybe because Vineyard Vines began operations in our neck of the woods and all five of our sons have worn VV clothes their entire lives…it is a favorite store of ours.
There is a collegiate line and a special offering now: 12/16 through 12/17 – Free Gift With Purchases $200+ TRAVEL18
13. SPANK Leggings SPANX is about so much more than shapewear. Their leggings are incredibly popular and, do we even need to say, fit like gloves? Your daughter will love wearing the faux leather, velvet or just plain black leggings this holiday season.
14. Harper Crossbody Bag This crossbody has become one of the best-selling little bags that we have seen this holiday season. It comes in all sorts of cute colors, is very well-priced and appears on Oprah’s List of 2018 Favorites. Congrats to the Harper!
Some colors are out of stock until after Christmas, select various colors for arrival before Christmas!
15. GrubHub App and Gift Card
Here’s the perfect gift for your busy teen or college student – a gift card to GrubHub. Once they download the GrubHub app, they can order from their favorite local restaurant and get dinner delivered with just a few key strokes. With over 50,000 restaurants in 1100+ cities, they will have plenty of choices when they cannot face the dining hall ONE MORE NIGHT. P.S. Download the app YOURSELF and order in during this crazy busy holiday season.

17. Polaroid Zip Photo Printer How nice that there’s a fun and fast way to print and share real, paper photos! Polaroid has created a very old school and, at the same time, a very modern printer that your teen will love.

21. 100 Movies Scratch Off Wall Art How fun is this? It’s a movie “scratch off” poster. It lists 100 popular movies of our time and, after your teen watches one of the movies, they can scratch off the box to learn a little bit of trivia about the movie. Perfect for that film buff on your list.

24. Favorite Off to College Books The Naked Roommate and Do Your Laundry or You’ll Die Alone are our favorite books to give a college freshman or high school senior.

We know both authors and recommend them to all of our friends whose teens are grown and flown!
