00:00Hey there gift givers, struggling to find the perfect gift for that special someone?
00:03Don't worry, we've got you covered. Welcome to our countdown, the best gifts under $50.
00:11I'm your host, Kim Pfeiffer, Features and Special Projects Director here at Forbes Vetted.
00:16Whether you're shopping for a present for the hostess with the mostess, the fashion guru,
00:20or that guy in your life that's always impossible to find something for,
00:24we've handpicked the best of the best gifts that won't break the bank. Let's dive in.
00:29Starting off at number 10, we have the stylish coffee table book Colorful by Iris Apfel. As the
00:34last book written by the late great fashion icon, Colorful is a new collection of personal photos,
00:40life stories, and yes, of course, style inspirations that Apfel put together following
00:45her 102nd birthday. A beautiful coffee table book is always a home run, but this one is a
00:50particularly lovely gift for anyone who appreciates fashion, interior design, and a life lived in full
00:55color. Next up at number nine, it's the home for the holidays 12 Days of Puzzles. Those who love
01:01advent calendars and puzzles will love this gift. It has 12 windows that reveal a mini puzzle
01:06underneath. Once you finish all the puzzles, they make a single 500 piece scene of a cozy home
01:12celebrating the holidays. At number eight on our list, we've got the ground up nut butter tasting
01:16plate. If any of your loved ones love to snack on nut butter by the spoonful, they're going to love
01:22this sampler box from Ground Up PDX. Each jar is filled to the brim with handcrafted nut and
01:27seed butters made from high quality and often local ingredients like Oregon grown hazelnuts
01:33and Jacobson sea salt. Our number seven gift is perfect for the girl or the guy on the go,
01:38and that's the L.L. Bean medium boat and tote. Personalized gifts are an easy way to go above
01:42and beyond, and L.L. Bean's boat and totes have been having a major moment recently. You can add
01:47an embroidered name, monogram, or cheeky saying to the medium size, and it will still cost you less
01:52than $50. We recommend opting for the longer strap customization option to ensure a comfortable carry.
01:59Snagging in the number six spot on our list is the intelligent change, the five minute journal.
02:03This journal is an easy way to incorporate some mindfulness into your daily routine. Each morning
02:08you'll be prompted to reflect on what you're grateful for and how you hope the day will go,
02:12and then each evening there's an opportunity to reflect on the highlights of your day and what
02:17you learned. At number five, we've got the Grey Malon dog book. For any pet lover or art and design
02:23addict, this book is the perfect gift. Grey Malon captures the adorable and pampered well-dressed
02:28pooches from Beverly Hills to London to New York City to Paris, lounging poolside and soaking up
02:34powder on a chairlift in Aspen. It's truly a delight. Now we're getting into the really good
02:39stuff. At number four, we have a product that has gone totally viral with our editorial staff at
02:44Vetted, and that is the Presto stuffed Belgian waffle maker. Our executive editor purchased this
02:49after watching a TikTok on it, and it's now one of his favorite kitchen gadgets. He's made
02:53everything from waffles stuffed with eggs and cheese, to waffles stuffed with pizza sauce and
02:58meatballs, to even apple pie stuffed waffles. It is ridiculously easy to use, clean up is a snap,
03:04and it's only $49. Taking the number three spot is the What I Ate in One Year and Related Thoughts
03:10book by actor Stanley Tucci, a great addition to any coffee table or kitchen bookshelf. Inside the
03:15pages, Tucci records 12 months of eating in restaurants, kitchens, film sets, press junkets,
03:20at home and abroad with friends, family, strangers, and occasionally just by himself. It's funny,
03:25heartfelt, and perfect for the foodie in your life. We're down to the top two, and these gifts are
03:30truly special. Coming in at number two, it's the Easy Plant Heartleaf Philodendron. This self-watering
03:35planter is ideal for the person in your life that just cannot seem to keep a plant alive. This plant
03:41needs water only once a month. Simply open the lid, refill the container, and your plant will be
03:47sufficient for the next four weeks. And now, the moment you've all been waiting for. The number one
03:52gift pick for the top gifts under $50 is the Salted Raspberry and Chamomile Sparkling Beverage from
03:58Nahn. Nahn makes uniquely delicious, large format, non-alcoholic drinks with flavors that sit somewhere
04:04between a sparkling tea and a wine. The Salted Raspberry Chamomile, which has a perfect sweet
04:09tart balance and a gorgeous rosy hue, is great paired with food. Think salty snacks like olives,
04:14prosciutto, and cheese at happy hour, or sipped from a respectable fancy glass all on its own.
04:19The brand also sells sets if you want to level up your gift. And there you have it, our top 10 gift
04:25picks under $50. We hope this list makes your gift shopping a little easier and a lot more fun. If
