Holiday shopping is easy for some folks on your list, like the efficient people (Virgos) who just send you a list. But finding gifts for the people who have everything isn't as simple. That's where we come in. The best gifts for them can often involve digging into their interests and surfacing some new things they might not have known about, like a new collectible treat or a small but useful item they may have never considered for themselves. Or a subscription for people with very particular tastes that helps them choose more of what they love.
Showing appreciation for your pals can come in many nonmaterial forms (like quality time), but there's something to be said about tangible gifts. And boy, do we have ideas. Below, we've compiled a list of very specific options for every type of person, from the person who's in your book club to the person who dutifully tags you in Co-Star memes. And, since we know cost matters, you'll find that most things on this list fall under $100.
Before you dive in, a reminder that supply-chain issues aren't improving, and many major shipping companies have set deadlines of December 15. So if you want to stock up on your first-choice gifts for people who have everything, we recommend shopping ASAP.
