Gifts for Women Under $20


No celebration, birthday, anniversary, etc., is complete without a cake and a gift. And, even if you are broke, you will be inclined to gift something to that special woman in your life on her birthday or for any other special occasion. You do not have time to make something at home. In that case, do not worry, there are several inexpensive gift ideas that will be helpful for you to find the perfect gift for your girlfriend, wife, friend, sister or your mom.

Inexpensive Gifts for Women

Gifts for women need not be expensive every time, but, they should be expressive. Even if you have got the most inexpensive gift for your girl, make sure it is thoughtful and according to her choices and preferences. It should match her personality. For e.g., if she likes dressing up and shopping, gift her a make-up kit; or if she likes adventure, give her a gift related to camping and adventure. Following are some ideas on best gifts for women:

Make Up
Make up is something every woman uses and loves, right from teenagers to women above 60 years of age! You will find a smaller make-up kit, make up bag, individual make up items like lipstick, eye liner, mascara, etc., well in your budget. Secondly, a set of colorful nail paints can also be a good and inexpensive option, especially for teenage girls.

Chocolates
Although women are in and out of their diet several times in a year, they secretly crave for sweets and chocolates. There are very few women who can resist chocolates! Assorted chocolates, chocolate swirl cookies, chocolate chip cookies, fruit cakes, etc., are simple yet great gifts for women of every age.

Handbags
Just like clothes, women can never have enough of handbags and purses. You get colorful handbags and purses of all sizes and shapes at inexpensive rates. You can also shop for designer inspired handbags online on various shopping sites. If she likes traveling or sports, you can also buy her a duffel bag.

Jewelry
Another idea is jewelry. Sterling silver jewelry is very popular these days and can be obtained within this price range. You can look for cubic Zirconia pendant, silver chain, Swarovski crystal pendants, silver rings, etc. Similarly tribal and junk jewelry, beaded jewelry can also fit into your budget.

Tableware
If she loves cooking or if she is a homely kind of girl, then you can look for cool tableware within your budget. Just like make up, there are several options to choose from. You can buy a coffee or tumbler mugs, wine and cheese set, sushi tray, a beer mug, colorful table napkins, apron, candle stand, etc.

Gift Certificate
If you do not come up with a single idea, you can always buy a gift certificate for her. Gift certificates for a manicure and pedicure at small salons, iTunes gift cards, book gift cards, amazon gift cards, etc., are also great gifts for women under $20.

Gift Basket
Now this is my personal favorite. A gift basket has everything one can expect! So, you can buy a customized gift basket; or simply throw in all the things that she loves or which remind you of her in a decorative basket and gift it to her. A gift basket is a perfect gift for women of all age groups.
