Best Amazon Holiday Gift Sets Under $10
Name-brand beauty and self-care goodies can be pricey, but we found budget-friendly options for less than $10. There are even gift sets that cost as little as $4.99. That way you can pamper your loved ones without sacrificing your wallet.
During the holiday season, I personally like to gift hydrating products to help with the drier winter months. Think lip balms, face masks, and lotions. And these goodies tend to encourage self-care practices — a must for combatting winter blues.

Quality Amazon Holiday Gift Sets Under $15
If you’ve got a little more spending money, I recommend beauty products that offer a summer glow even in the middle of winter. Consider this Physician’s Formula bronzing palate or some golden nail polishes. And the best part? Many of these options are less than $10 after discounts.
Our Fave Amazon Holiday Gift Sets Under $20
Shopping for someone who doesn’t wear makeup and isn’t about more traditionally feminine scents? I got you. For that self-care aspect, high-end brand L’Occitane makes a neutral almond-scented gift box. Or, if you know a master crapsman, I’ve got just the Poo-Pourri set. And did I mention the cheapest of these options is just $11.35? What a steal.

Foodies will love these options under $25. Whether you’re shopping for an aspiring baker or a hot sauce fanatic, some solid choices start at just a little over $19. And because I just love beauty goods, of course, I had to sneak in a nail polish option too.
Best Holiday Gift Sets Under $40
Who doesn’t love the finer things in life? Especially when said finer things cost less than $40. Coffee lovers will love this four-piece set for $39.99. And, did you know you can buy Victoria’s Secret on Amazon? That’s right, you can AND it’s even cheaper than many in-store options once you factor in Subscribe & Save discounts and other promotions.
Want to save on Amazon holiday gift sets? In general, holiday gift sets are cheapest in July and mid-fall.
The consistently cheapest time to shop for holiday gift sets is actually in the summer months like July. This is likely because Amazon wants to get rid of last year’s stock to make room for this year’s.
We’ve been tracking prices for a hot minute and checking CamelCamelCamel to see when products are cheapest. For example, this Physicians Formula Holiday Gift Set hit its lowest price in the past year on July 13. Similarly, The Body Shop Berries & Bubbles Bath Ritual Gift Set dropped to its lowest price on July 10.
That said, shopping for holiday gifts in July is a little bit early. In this case, the second best option is late October and early November. For example, the lowest price for the Chicago Holiday Baking Set was $8.23 on November 3. Similarly, the EcoTools Wrapped In Glow Makeup Brush & Sponge Kit was just $11.35 as of Oct. 26.
Take advantage of Subscribe & Save discounts.
A lot of gift sets are actually eligible for Subscribe & Save deals. By stacking those discounts on top of other promotions or sale prices, you can get the lowest possible price.
For example, the Victoria’s Secret PINK 4-Piece Mini Mist Gift Set has a 5% Subscribe & Save discount AND an additional 20% off your first shipment. And if you don’t want to keep getting the same gift sets over and over, you can cancel in three easy steps.
Consider ordering last year’s holiday bundle over this year’s.
It’s no secret that retailers will sell last year’s Christmas products at significantly cheaper prices just to make room for this year’s. You can actually get really good deals this way. And since most gift sets aren’t labeled with the year it was originally released, the recipient won’t know.
To illustrate this point, let’s look at the Estee Lauder Holiday Beauty Blockbuster Gift Set. The 2023 iteration retails for $174.99. On the other hand, the 2022 version sells for $156.49. That’s a savings of $18.50 or about 10%.
