Let’s be honest — shopping at drugstores isn’t what it used to be. Everyone’s in an angry, disheveled rush to get their essentials. And there’s no need to peruse the aisles while waiting for a prescription because now you get all your little treasures while browsing in bed. But we’re here to remind you that gems can be found at your local drugstore, especially if you visit their website or app.

This year, CVS is making it easier than ever to cross off everyone on your list with its curated Gifts Under $10 section. You’ll find smart, festive assortments designed to take the stress out of the season. For stocking stuffers, coworkers you barely know, your kids’ teachers, or hosts, CVS has high-value, low-price finds across beauty, wellness, snacks, and seasonal essentials.

At a time when holiday budgets are tight and schedules are even tighter, low-cost convenience matters. With easy in-store pickup, extended hours, and hundreds of thoughtful items all in one place, CVS makes it possible to pull off last-minute gifting without sacrificing quality or care.

The assortment is surprisingly robust. Beauty lovers will appreciate full-sized mascaras and hydrating lip balms with a cheeky Christmas twist. The self-care enthusiast on your list can unwrap aromatic bath soaks or soothing herbal teas — Katie herself loves to give ginger peach tea for the holidays!

Snacks are another standout category, with festive chocolate assortments, gourmet cookies, and grab-and-go goodies that make perfect additions to gift baskets or office exchanges. Because let’s be honest — who doesn’t love a gold-wrapped Ferrero Rocher when the holidays hit?

This year, give yourself permission to keep things simple with CVS’s curated Gifts Under $10, available online and in-store at more than 9,000 locations. There are thousands of products, but we’ve narrowed it down to our top suggestions:
