gifts for women–all under $100

It's easy to get overwhelmed by a mile-long shopping list, and though it may be the thought that counts, there's no reason not to present your mom, wife, or friend with a great gift. We've rounded up budget-friendly gift ideas she'll not only adore, but actually use.

  • BLACK FRIDAY SHOPPING TIPS

  • 1

    Make a list. It can get frantic when the sales start lighting up your inbox, so organize your gift-buying needs before chaos strikes. You don't want to miss out on getting a great deal for someone important (I.e., your in-laws, or a new niece).

  • 2

    Stock up: Deals rarely go deeper than during the holiday season, so think about upcoming gift-centric events and stockpile options now.

  • 3

    Know your return policies: Make sure that you're not splurging on final-sale pieces that might very well need to go back.

  • 4

    Maximize your budget: Besides searching for coupons and discount codes, consider enrolling in cash back programs that will get you extra dollars back.

  • 5

    Sign up for store newsletters, like the stores you regularly shop on Facebook, and follow them on Twitter. Retailers often use their social media and email changes to deliver special deals (sometimes you can score an extra 10 percent off just for signing up).

  • 6

    Buy in bulk and then customize: Can't find the perfect big-ticket item? Consider assembling gift baskets from smaller items (wine glasses and a great bottle of wine; a spa-at-home collection; a starter craft kit). Putting in a little bit of extra effort can save you big dollars, and make your gift stand-out.
