With only a few more days left until Christmas the last thing you want to be doing is running to the mall, sitting in traffic, and waiting in lines. If you’re looking for those last minute gifts for that co-worker you almost forgot, the party invites you just received, or for your Great Aunt Suzie that just called to say she was popping in for dinner on Christmas day, there’s still hope! Here are a couple quick, inexpensive, last minute gift ideas…

Food is always a favorite and the perfect thing to bring to the party you just got invited to for Saturday night. Try ordering some chocolate covered strawberries, cookies, pretzels or gift baskets from a trusted online site like Edible Arrangements. These delicious treats start at only $25 and can be picked up at the closest store or delivered in just a couple of days. www.ediblearrangements.com

Pick up a bottle of wine at the grocery store or local liquor store on your way to your event is quick and easy. Here’s a list of the top 10 most common wines at a great price www.foodandwine.com/articles/top-holiday-wine-picks

Personalize mugs, ornaments, photo books, and calendars are one of those quick gifts that seems like they took months to come up with. They can be easily created online and can be picked up at your local CVS, Walgreens, or Rite Aid. Just upload your favorite pictures and follow the step by step directions. In most cases you can pick up the next day or even sometimes the same day!
