15 Foolproof Wellness Gifts Perfect for Secret Santa—That Are All Under $30

Finding holiday gifts for the people you know and love is hard enough as is, but exchanging Secret Santa gifts with a coworker, extended family member, or classmate who you don’t know as well is another challenge entirely. Throw a price cap into the mix, and shopping can be not so merry and bright.

Still, when done right, a Secret Santa gift exchange is a great way to foster new friendships and spread a little love during the holiday season.

Your best bet when shopping for an office or friendly gift exchange is to keep it simple. Shop with function first, and prioritize gift ideas that’ll make your Secret Santa’s life easier in one way or another. If you don’t know them that well, avoid going too niche with your gift, and opt for something that’s generally enjoyable for most people. And because no one wants to feel like they got the short end of the stick, remember to put yourself in your recipient’s shoes—is the gift one that you’d be psyched to unwrap yourself? If so, then you’re on the right track.

To help you win your Secret Santa exchange this year, we rounded up our most universally loved wellness gifts that anyone in your group would be delighted to receive. The best part? They’re all under $30, a reasonable price cap for most exchanges (although most are less than $20.) Keep calm and shop on.

Wellness gifts for Secret Santa under $30

Stojo, 16 oz. Cup — $20.00

Everyone can use a reusable cup, and the Stojo is a personal favorite because of its space-saving, collapsible design. It’s made of a food-grade silicone and features a temperature-regulating sleeve that helps keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold, making it a must-have for everything from your morning latté to smoothies and iced matcha. And unlike other reusable cups that can only be hand-washed, the Stojo can go right in the dishwasher (on the top rack) for easy cleaning.

REI Co-op, Ribbed Watch Cap — $20.00

*Game of Thrones voice* Winter is… here. What better way to gear up for sleet and snow than with a cozy beanie?

And while other beanies are itchy, this one’s not, guaranteed to stay comfortable, even if they work up a sweat.

Ordinary Habit, 100 Piece Puzzle — $20.00

I standby giving puzzles as gifts because a) they make for a great brain exercise, and b) they’re a relaxing self care treat.

I.e., this ramen noodle puzzle that anyone—foodie or not—would get a kick out of upon unwrapping.
