It’s that time of year to buy gifts for all the people in your life. But what to get them? You’d like to get them something they’ll appreciate, but you don’t know what. Search Amazon’s holiday gift guide and you’ll find mostly cheaply made candles, bath bombs, and gift baskets of stuff that no one really wants. I waded through all the junk to find sixteen gifts you can give that will show how much you care that you can buy without leaving the house. And, all but the second-to-the-last one supports a small business at the same time! I told you this gift guide was the ultimate.
