this needs to be split into two Threads ... Gifts for girls and gifts for boys ...

and I dont see under $50 is a good idea ... generally people waiting for gifts expect more than that in the $200 range .. $50 is easy to earn.

Maybe my family was in the minority. but when I was younger, I NEVER got a gift worth $50, much less $200.

I think this is more of a "gift" guide for cool things that you, as an adult, can buy for yourself, as a pc enthusiast.

They're looking for affordable gift ideas. Obviously there are plenty of expensive tech gifts, but most of those kinds of things should be relatively obvious, and most people probably aren't going to buy only high value gifts for everyone. Especially when it comes to gifts for friends, coworkers, and so on.

And if someone is expecting only $200 gifts, you should give them a rock instead. : P

lol .. well $200 is Average where I grew up ... my family Holiday gifts ranged from full consoles to mobile phone , Bicycles , ipods (and sony walkman before that), Cameras , Lego , car / train / planes Models , and sport gears (most expensive) etc ..

it is once a year and worth the wait. $50 ? come on , work in the library you can earn $50 in no time.

Gifts for readers of Tom's Hardware: Some kind of AdBlock, because the site is absolutely obnoxious without it at the moment.

How about a lamp? LAMP???? Check it out, this one comes with USB charge ports, Timer, and has different levels of brightness.

OK, for $30 I have to admit, that's a pretty nice lamp.

This would make a nice fifty dollar gift for ANYBODY that has or is building a system.

And, it's a brand new to the market product. At least the v3 version is anyhow. Seems to be MUCH improved over the v2.

Funny USB hubs are always good. A Pylon one or a B-B8 one or . . . you know, a relevant Blade Runner one or something.
Is there a VPN service that allows you to buy someone a years' subscription or something? I just got one for Audible, don't know if VPNs do that.

Well, I would go with this metal poster:

There are a lot of great gaming, comic posters there! I believe it can be a nice present! And the price is relatively good, in comparison to other metal posters, $44 only.
