The Best Last-Minute Gifts You Can Get on a Drugstore Website

It's down to the wire. It's too late for even Amazon to save you, and you're really not thrilled to go out and shop in person. What is a last-minute holiday gift shopper to do?

Go online at the local drug store, of course.

Pharmacy shops these days are chock full of items way beyond health, beauty and household essentials. And you don't have to look far to find perfectly gift-worthy items that don't scream "last-minute."

Even better, in the current shopping-during-a-pandemic world, you can get your hands on these giftable goods safely via curbside pickup and/or delivery service options that all of the drug stores on this list offer.

Both CVS and Rite Aid offer same-day delivery through Instacart. Just be prepared to pay both a service and delivery fee of $3.99 to $7.99, plus a service fee that is typically 5% of your order total.

Walgreens allows customers to order online or use the Walgreens App to pick up orders curbside or via the drive-thru in as little as 30 minutes (but we hope you're not that last-minute). Walgreens also partners with Postmates for home delivery, which includes a delivery fee. You can potentially save on fees for both delivery services by signing up for monthly memberships, which are $9.99 a month.

To save you even more of the time you don't have now, we've scoured the drug store websites to find the best ideas to help you finally cross the last items off your list, from grandparents to babies and everyone in between. Take a look at these items you can get if you need a quick gift.
