It feels like Thanksgiving was just the other day, but over two weeks have already passed. That means the “I’m going to get my Christmas shopping done early” ship has sailed. In the midst of dead week and studying for finals, many college students may have simply laughed off gift buying. It is time consuming and costs money many of us do not have. But fear not Ramily, the stores of Fort Collins might have something for you yet, even on a student budget. Here are five places to check if you still need gifts for the fam or for that white elephant party you got invited to:

Curiosities

This store is definitely a favorite of many CSU students. It is a quirky local store located just behind Old Town Square at 242 Walnut Street. This is the store where your best friend got that funny mug or silly pair of socks. Their website describes the store as an “eclectic and funky gift store (that) has something for everyone.” Some of their products are on the more expensive end, but there are definitely frugal options. Mugs, socks, stickers, posters and the like can all be found for under $20. And they have a whole wall full of funny cards, some even designed by local artists, if you are really tight on cash.

White Balcony

Another locally owned store with some great options White Balcony is located at 146 South College Ave. While a lot of their merchandise may be out of a college kids budget, they have so much in stock there is no way you can not find something. They offer many of the same quirky gift options as Curiosities alongside things your mom will love. Their website describes their specialty as “unique and edgy merchandise,” which is spot on. There are lots of options to be found for under $20, including books, wallets, jewelry, accessories, cards, etc.
