2022 Holiday Gift Guide
123: Arbitrage Andy Comprehensive Gift Guide
Each year we put out a holiday gift guide to help our followers take care of their shopping, hopefully in a relatively timely manner.
This year we wanted to do something a bit different and provide a good range of items but also some higher quality picks that we definitely recommend.
Since our audience is mostly males we have skewed most of the ideas towards that demographic, making this an ideal list for women as well if they are buying gifts or for men that are buying other men gifts.
We’ve included some good ideas for moms, sisters, and daughters as well and like to think it’s a detailed and comprehensive guide to gift buying this season.
Now since we’ve always offered this list each year to our followers, we are putting out two this week.
This one today for paid subs will include specific gift recommendations, stores, prices, and sites to shop on, and ideas for men and women, pretty much every piece of info you need to get your shopping done by the end of next week if you want.
Given we are limited to the amount of links we can use in Substack we haven’t riddled this thing with affiliate codes in order to make $1.27 off of $200 of sales.
Instead we offer the more detailed list that we spent hours researching to our thousands of paid subs so they can review, get their shopping done, and focus on more important things like side businesses, jobs, and going goblin mode on some good scotch at the family or office party.
But Andy why are you charging for a gift list?!
Because it’s granular, detailed, took us a long time to synthesize and more importantly will help you get your shopping done much more quickly. We’ve compiled the top gifts people want to receive AND the ones you will enjoy giving (or buying for yourself).
We’ve made it easy by listing item’s with their real names and with prices so you can simply google them see if you want it, and buy or move on to the next option if it looks interesting to you.
Besides….
Our regular free list will go out later this week with 10 of our top highlighted items as usual for all subscribers.
We included the following sections in this years guide:
For Corporate Kings and Queens
For Readers
For Outdoor & Adventure
For Women
For Tech Fiends
We have over 125+ gift recommendations and each list is ranked by price starting with some of the most affordable options and moving into more expensive luxurious gifts.
If you’re anything like me I tend to put off shopping until like 2-3 days before Christmas, not because I don’t want to do it but just because I get busy, caught up in social events like holiday parties and bar outings, overwhelmed by finishing work before year end, etc. etc.
The goal with this list is to give you one solid resource to reference so you can do all your shopping from a computer without referencing 19 articles and a buzzfeed “non toxic men’s gifts” top 20 gift list.
This guide contains dozens of gift options, highlighted choices, additional shops and brands to check out, as well as pricing and availability details. We’ve taken care to write out the full gift titles so that you can easily plug and chug with google to source them at their cheapest levels.
As mentioned this year we wanted to centralize a lot of information and gift options in one place so that folks would have the ability to browse, google, and find pretty much everything they need for the Holiday season in one place.
Maybe you’re like me and have 56 tabs open on your laptop or computer at all times.
If so - it would be ideal to be able to have one source for the best gift ideas so I can knock out all of my buys before the season gets too hectic. That was the aim here, we’ve created an extensive set of gifts for different types of people and men/women.
Ultimately if you are having trouble coming up with ideas for gifts, this list will be the fastest way to likely cross off everyone on your list in a very short amount of time.
Let’s get into it starting with the best gift ideas for young professionals and corporate busy bees.
