Best Walmart gifts under $25 Dash Mini Waffle Maker

The Dash Mini has been making the rounds for a while now on TikTok , and it managed to secure a spot on our list of the best waffle makers of 2024 . Our testers appreciated its ease of use, nonstick surface and the perfectly delectable size of the small waffles it churns out. A holiday-themed Dash Mini makes a great gift, whether you need something for your holiday office party or as a white elephant present .

Lodge Grill Pan

With winter around the corner, some people may not want to use their outdoor grill, which is where this Lodge Grill Pan comes into the picture. Your giftee can now "grill" indoors with it, preparing anything from steak and chicken to fish and veggies. (Maybe they'll even invite you over to be their official taste-tester.)

Apple AirTag

There's no such thing as having too many AirTags and your giftee will probably agree. They can put their AirTags in many places , from inside their jacket to their bag to onto their bike. When they use the Find My app on their iPhone, they'll see where their missing item is. And if they're an Android person, you can always get them a Tile Mate ($25).

Renpho Smart Jump Rope

If you know a fitness fanatic, or someone who'd like to be one, this Renpho Smart Jump Rope is for them. They can track all their jumping and health metrics, and it'll soon make them look forward to using it. Plus, it's a great workout and good for both physical and mental health.

Best Walmart gifts under $50 Stanley IceFlow Tumbler (30-ounce)

Whether you've heard about the Stanley Tumbler on TikTok or from a friend, it's the must-have item for hot and cold drinks that your giftee will definitely bring everywhere. The comfort-grip handle, double-walled insulation and reusable straw are great features, too. And, unlike some other tumblers, it should actually fit into their car cup holder, which is another bonus. CNET's Abrar Al-Heeti became a Stanley convert and loves hers.

Oral-B Pro 1000

The Oral-B Pro 1000 rechargeable electric toothbrush tops CNET's list of the best electric toothbrushes of 2024 , thanks to its powerful cleaning and affordable brush head replacements.

Available in multiple color options, it has three brushing modes (daily clean, whiten and sensitive) and a built-in 2-minute timer to make sure you brush long enough, with the toothbrush pulsing every 30 seconds to remind you to switch brushing spots. It's compatible with various Oral-B replacement heads. Note that the step-up iO Series 300 (about $20 more) comes with an extra replacement head, while the iO Series 400 has Bluetooth connectivity, so you can connect to a companion app.

Baseus Wireless Portable Charger Magnetic Power Bank

The Baseus Mini wireless portable charger is one of our favorite power banks on the market right now for iPhone users. It features a 5000mAh capacity, which is enough juice to give most phones one full recharge, and the 20W USB-C port will get you to around 50% in just 30 minutes. It's also compatible with MagSafe iPhones (iPhone 12 or newer) and supports 7.5-watt fast wireless charging for some extra convenience. It comes in four colors - black, blue, purple and white - and it's extremely portable at just 6.3 ounces and 0.55-inch thick.

Sunbeam 15-pound Wearable Weighted Blanket

Weighted blankets are popular self-care items for lessening anxiety and stress. So if you know someone who can use some de-stressing - or just couch coziness - this 54-by-73-inch blanket is perfect for them. It's reversible, is super soft velvet and microfiber and even wearable: It has arm slits and a neck cutout so they can hold a book or mug of tea with their hands.

Best Walmart gifts under $100 Edifier W820NB Plus headphones

Edifier is known for its quality PC speakers and true-wireless earbuds, and the Edifier W820NB Plus headphones are a nice upgrade over its previous version. CNET audio guru David Carnoy tested these headphones and appreciated their comfortable feel, thanks to high-grade memory foam on the ear pads. Other features include an ambient mode that lets outside sound in and a low-latency gaming mode. The noise canceling has been upgraded slightly, and battery life is pretty impressive, with up to 49 hours of battery life on a single charge at moderate volume levels (and noise canceling off). You won't find a carrying case or headphone jack with these headphones, but it's hard to beat what you get for the price.

SodaStream Terra

If you know someone who enjoys sparkling water, they'll love the convenience of churning out the fizzy stuff at home - and it will save them money too. The SodaStream Terra is our top pick for the best soda maker for most people. It's easy to use and it has a slim design that doesn't take up too much counter space.

Click and Grow Smart Garden 3

This is a perfect tech-meets-gardener (or aspiring gardener) present because it allows your giftee to grow their own herbs, like fresh basil. CNET's David Watsky says, "It couldn't be simpler to operate, with self-contained seed pods, LED grow lights and a water tank that needs filling only every two or three weeks. A perfect starter herb indoor garden for someone with a not-so-green thumb." And this is also one of CNET's picks for best indoor smart gardens .

Fujifilm Instax Mini 12

This instant film camera makes a great gift for those who still appreciate holding an actual photo in their hands. They can then put the mini, 2-by-3-inch photos on the fridge, in their wallet, frame them, create a photo book... you name it. And if you gift it with some Instax Mini film ($17), even better.

Best Walmart gifts over $100 Apple M1 MacBook Air (13-inch)

For anyone on your gift list who's always wanted a MacBook Air, this 13-inch one is a great deal and is our pick for the best budget MacBook . No, it's not the latest model, but its price is well worth it. Some features include its Apple M1 chip with an eight-core CPU and a seven-core GPU. It also has 8GB of RAM, 256GB of storage, long battery life (up to 18 hours) and weighs just 2.8 pounds, which makes it very transportable.

Dyson V8 Absolute Cordless Vacuum

Friends and loved ones who appreciate a good vacuum will love getting their hands on this Dyson (no pun intended). It can be used on carpet, hardwood and tile floors, but also other surfaces since it easily transforms to a handheld vacuum. A HEPA filter, no-touch bin and the fact that it's just under six pounds are other features that your giftee will like.

Apple AirPods Pro 2 (USB-C)

If your teen or tween - or someone else on your gift list - has wanted some Apple AirPods, these are a very good option. They not only made our pick for best Apple AirPods , but CNET's David Carnoy says they're very similar to their Lightning predecessor and still provide excellent sound, as well as have great voice-calling and noise-canceling capabilities. He also says not to pay more than $190 for them, which is their frequent on-sale price.

Lego Harry Potter Hogwarts Castle Set

If you know someone who's both a Lego and Harry Potter fan, this gift is for them (and you can even join in on the fun and help them put the 2,660-piece Hogwarts Castle together). All the little details are amazing, and aside from the castle, they'll also build famous set pieces, like the Great Hall, Astronomy Tower and the Boathouse (to name just a few). Once it's completed, it'll look like a work of art and they'll probably never disassemble it (and we don't blame them).
