Ho-ho-how is your Christmas shopping going?
Folks, it’s one week until Christmas and the summer holidays. You can still order gifts online but you’re cutting it close.
But what to get? Well, I thought I’d tap into the collective Sizzler wisdom and come up with some recommendations for gifts! Thank you to everyone who contributed, and please feel free to send me anything more you’d like to add.
None of these are affiliate links, just sharing this to make your life easier. Also, please double-check the delivery date. I’ve tried to make sure every retailer will get it to you before the 25th but these things change quick.
### The work Kris Kringle recipient tier (<$30)
USB cables: “handful of IKEA USB cables in all different ends" - $12 Rubber gloves: “seems bizarre, but we love these so much, everyone in our family is getting a pair for Christmas. Veeerrrrry low tech. Their tech difference’s is that they are longer sleeved, so don't get water in them. They work & are life changing!" - $4.59 Kindle Unlimited subscription: $13.99 GaN charger: “if anyone needs a good charger and get a bunch of high power Anker or UGreen wallwarts when they’re on huge discount. Replace the old 5w terrible ones with good 33w chargers!” - $23 Item trackers: “"I’m currently gifting Chipolo trackers (Pop and Card) to the family as they look good, work on both Apple and Android and you get a discount in bulk." - $26
### The lesser family members tier ($30-$75)
The Bindicator: “This is usually a DIY project using a microcontroller and LEDs to track bin days” but here’s the official one for $35 LED Torches: “Nifty little LED torches that are SUPER bright. Both have a magnet for popping them on the fridge for easy access.” - $31 Meat Thermometer: “This is the best thing I have added to my cooking (BBQ & oven), it's an accurate meat thermometer that you can set up wirelessly without it calling home to China - AKA private!!” - $40 A Sizzle gift subscription for the low, low price of $60
### The person who you secretly don’t like and so want to make sure you really flex on them with a nice gift tier ($75-$200)
Home Assistant Green smart hub: “An amazing and easy way to get started on home automation” - $181 DeskPi RackMate miniPC storage: “If you already have all the computers, Raspberry Pis, mini servers, modems, routers, etc that you want, then you need to organise your stuff and make it less messy" - $138 Wolfbox MegaFlow 1000 rechargeable portable air duster: “I've used it much more than I thought I would, anything from cleaning out PCs (carefully), air conditioner filters, car seats and much more.” - $130
### The cheeky “well it’s Christmas for me, too” self-gift tier ($200-$500)
Solar-powered bird feeder with a camera - $201 Swiftpoint Z2 ergonomic mouse: “it's an honestly over-engineered masterpiece. Tilt-sensors let you change profiles... It has several pressure-sensitive buttons, knuckle buttons, and just does everything..." - $260 Lovense Lush 4 Bluetooth App Controlled Egg Vibrator sex toy - $235
### The beloved author of a daily tech newsletter tier (>$500)
Supernote Nomad e-ink tablet - $549
