Gift cards are a great substitute for gifting cash.

With Christmas a couple of days away, there aren’t many shopping days left to score an awesome present or two. If you’ve forgotten anyone on your holiday shopping list, there’s no need to panic. You can still get plenty of gifts that make you a holiday hero if you shop a little smarter.

Some retailers are still offering products that they claim will arrive before Christmas, but there’s some uncertainty with shipping delays this year. The only way to guarantee you have a gift ready to go on Christmas morning is to stick to gift cards and subscriptions that don’t require a physical product delivery for the big day. 

Whether you’re shopping for the makeup aficionado, gamer, coffee lover, outdoor adventurer or DIY-er in your life, we’ve got gift cards, magazine subscriptions and subscription box ideas that can make the perfect last-minute gift.
