10 Last minute Christmas gifts under $50.00

1.Space Pen
At any price, this is my favorite pen that I have ever owned. Writes great and is small enough to fit in front pocket unnoticed. Refills are only $4.95.. Buy this pen!

2.Emergency Radio
I gave Emergency Radios to many of my family members. Most thought it was a silly gift but that spring there was a blizzard in Northwest Arkansas and my grandmother was snowed in for 4 days without electricity. Her only connection to the outside world was her emergency radio. Every house needs one!

3. iPod Shuffle
Who doesn’t need another MP3 player? For less than $50, this is perfect for anyone who wants to listen to music while working out or running. Also good for kids!

4. Skull Candy Portable Speakers for iPod/iPhone
These are great because they allow you to share your tunes with friends… even when there is no electricity!

5. Battlestar Galactica – Season 1 (DVD)
What a well written series. BSG even appeals to non sci-fi fans! Hot girls, space battles and mystery. Good addition to any DVD collection.

6. Leatherman Blast Multitool
A multitool like the Leatherman Blast is a great gift because it can be thrown into the glove compartment of a vehicle and give the driver quick access to screw drivers, pliers or even a knife. Great gift for guys and gals!

7. Leatherman Kick/Micra Combo
The leatherman Micra didn’t seem very cool until I got one. Great little keychain knife. I have given this out as gifts to friends and everyone has commented as to how useful it is. This combo is an INSANE deal. The Leatherman Micra sells for $19.95 and the Leatherman Kick sells for around $29.95. Getting both for $34 is awesome!

8. Firefly: The Complete Series (Blu-Ray)
I had never seen this series when it was originally on television. I caught the movie Serenity and LOVED IT. It’s basically a western set in space. Lots of humor and action! Great visual effects. Buy this series!

9.Absinthe & Flamethrowers: Projects and Ruminations on the Art of Living Dangerously (Paperback Book)
For the fire nerd in your family, this is a fun book to read. Educational experiments with a little danger involved.

10. Walking Dead Compendium (Paperback Book)
Probably one of the best comic books I’ve ever read. Warning. This is NOT for kids. Lot’s of adult situations, language, etc.
