Holiday tech-related gifts for less than $25

Not everything in today’s tech has to cost a fortune, and there are plenty of great tech-related gifts for those on a budget, or for those who find their holiday list expanding.

Don’t worry, you still have time to find holiday gifts, especially if you order from Amazon. You absolutely can be a thoughtful gift-giver, even if you’re on a budget. We took a look at tech-related gift items that cost $25 or less and there’s a surprising amount of fun and useful items to be had. These products will definitely come in handy for those who find their gift list growing longer. Here are some gifts that will be appreciated and still not break the bank.

It may not be sexy gift, but it’s one that will be both welcome and practical. Required mask-wearing doesn’t appear to be lifted anytime soon, so why not consider gifting an enhanced mask? The xMask Air, said the manufacturer, “is a washable, and reusable face mask made from antimicrobial materials and engineered with breathability and convenience in mind.” 

Masks are available in three sizes (men, women and kids). The mask’s fabric is stretchable and lightweight and the ear loops are made of a soft stretchy fabric. It comes with a  five-layer, 95% blocking-filter.  For every xMask sold, one is donated to a hospital in need. To date, xMask has donated over 50,000 masks to hospitals across the US. The regular price is $29 (marked down from $39), but a company rep tells us there is a code on its website for 30% off.

With this deck participants hold up colorful cards to lend support (white heart with pink background), input (“I have an idea!” which has a lightbulb image), reminders (“1 minute left”), among others.
