It’s that time of year again – when Christmas inevitably sneaks up on you. Oh wait, nope…same day every year. But the procrastinators of the world (keep reading if that sounds like you – cause it’s definitely me) seem to find themselves year after year, trying to find gifts at the last minute.

Thanks to companies like Amazon with Prime shipping, last minute has become much more doable and less stress inducing – as long as you can remember to get your shopping done at least a week before Christmas. If you’re still OK driving around town to finish your gift list, then you have the chance to cut it a bit closer. For those last minute gifts that make you look like the unsung hero (and like you’ve been planning since October), read on my friend.

Whether you are shopping for a fellow business gal, a mom, or yourself, this list will get you going.

They even offer a 30-day home trial. If it’s not for you, they’ll pick it up for free and give you a full refund. Don’t have the budget or have a spin bike already collecting dust at home? Try using just the app. You can get a subscription for just under $20 a month and they have way more than just bike and tread.

Black Friday Deal: Half-off all Peloton apparel. Free “The Works” accessories pack with bike purchase.

 

Let’s be honest, this list could go on and on. It’s hard to narrow down great gifts each year that aren’t all over the internet (who needs to see the same gift lists over and over?). What have you got on your list this year? Whatever it is, I hope it shows up in your stocking or under your tree by the end of 2019. Tell me, what are your favorite go to gifts for your fellow boss babes?
