If you’re shopping for holiday gifts on a budget, be sure to add Nordstrom Rack to your list of stops. You can find things for nearly anybody there. Prices are fairly reasonable too. In fact, some items are up to 70% cheaper than what you’d find at Nordstrom, according to The Krazy Coupon Lady. It’s a great deal all around.
Not sure which gifts to buy this holiday season? Here are some standout options from Nordstrom Rack.
Almond Forever Gift Set
- Price: $36.00
This limited-edition, three-piece L’Occitane set is an excellent gift for anyone looking to take their daily skincare routine to the next level. Included are an almond shower oil (8.4 ounces) that cleanses and softens the skin, hand and nail cream, and a 0.6-ounce tube of almond milk concentrate body cream.
According to the five-star reviews, this unique combination of skincare products leaves the skin softer and hydrated without the oily residue other creams and lotions have. It’s ideal for dry, winter months.
Deco II Diamond Two-Tone Watch
- Price: $819.97 (regularly $1,495.00)
Currently 45% off, this two-tone watch is a must-buy for that special person in your life. Made with 18-karat gold-plated stainless steel, this watch looks even more luxurious than it is. Customers who’ve previously purchased it said it goes well with everything and that it’s even lovelier in person.
Note that it is on the heavier side. The band is also a little wide, so you might need to get it sized if the lucky recipient has smaller wrists.
Cashmere Scarf
- Price: $39.97 (regularly $99.00)
This cashmere scarf is a great gift for anyone who needs to update their cold-weather wardrobe or for someone who simply can’t have enough winter accessories. It’s black with a simple gray pattern that goes well with everything. Best of all, it’s one-size-fits-all. The majority of customers praised this scarf as being “perfect,” “beautiful” and “very soft.”
Reed Diffuser
- Price: $34.97 (regularly $60.00)
Everyone’s got that one friend or relative who loves their fragrances. Not only does this vanilla orchid and almond reed diffuser smell great, but it makes for a great holiday gift. It’ll keep anyone’s home smelling warm, soothing and inviting for up to 90 days. It’s basically the gift that keeps on giving.
Faux Leather Bracelet
- Price: $22.97 (regularly $74.99)
For some people, the best gift is one they can bring with them wherever they go. This men’s faux leather and beaded double strand bracelet is perfect for that. Black and green, it’s simple enough to not clash with everyday outfits while still being stylish. It’s got a simple, magnetic closure, so there’s no need to fiddle around with it trying to get it to stay on. Plus, it’s waterproof, which is ideal for more active wearers.
Shower Gift Set
- Price: $19.97 (regularly $38.00)
When you’re not sure which scent will go over the best, why not grab a variety pack? This gift set includes five small bottles of three-in-one shower gel, shampoo and bubble bath by Philosophy. Each is formulated to moisturize, cleanse and protect the skin barrier. The scents include peppermint, Christmas cookie, juniper berries and more.
Magnolia Bouquet Scented Candle
- Price: $24.97 (regularly $46.00)
Looking for a stocking stuffer this holiday season? This magnolia scented candle from Apotheke is a classic — and a Nordstrom exclusive. Previous buyers mention it has a beautiful, refreshing floral scent that’s neither too strong nor too subtle.
It’s got up to 70 hours of burn time, which means it’ll last a long while. Plus, it’s made with a soy wax blend and high-end oils for clean burning.
CozyChic Microstripe Blanket
- Price: $69.97 (regularly $145.00)
This highly rated microstripe blanket is soft, comfortable and warm with a luxe knit. It comes in two neutral colors — stone pearl and beach rock almond — so it goes great with most home aesthetics. Whether it’s to cozy up at home on the couch or to enjoy a crisp day out on the beach, it’s hard to go wrong as far as gifts go.
