Top 5 Gifts Under $75
1) Cloth Paper Towels
Toss the toss-away guilt with reusable cloth paper towels. The roll might look like the typical household helper, but its tear-resistant and lint-free cloths are durable and washable so you can use one over and over. A roll can last up to about six months of wet or dry jobs, depending on what you use it for.
2) Klip Cable Protector - Set of 5
The Klip is a simple, easy-to-use charger protector that takes a proactive approach to keep your Apple cords from fraying. This small, lightweight set of clips slide onto each end of your charging cable, providing support at the connection points. Available in several colors, the Klip reduces strain by up to 80%, lengthens the life of your cord, and helps you easily identify it, too.
3) Goat Milk Soap - Set of 2
The key to cleaning hard-working hands? Goat milk soap that is handcrafted in small batches on a family farm. This set of made-in-California soaps combines goat milk with other natural ingredients like olive oil and ground walnut shells for exfoliation. The soap gets tough on epoxy, grease, and other stubborn, stuck-on messes while leaving hands moisturized. It’s great for gardeners, mechanics, DIY-ers, or anyone who wants a natural and effective way to wash up.
