Gift idea #1… XBOX One
XBOX One is the gaming system that I have heard the most about recently. Apparently it is the must-have when it comes to gaming. Why?
Xbox One was built by gamers, for gamers. This gaming system is perfect for adults and kids both. There are games such as Halo (exclusive to XBOX), Call of Duty (a huge blockbuster game), Madden 15 (as well as several other sports games, and Skylanders (as well as many other family-friendly games). In addition to being a great gaming console, Xbox one lets you do much more! Xbox One enables access to the latest TV shows and movies through your favorite apps. With Xbox One all of your media is at your fingertips when you want it.
Gift idea #2… JBL speakers and headphones
The JBL Charge 2 is the perfect speaker for get togethers. It has twin passive radiators for deep bass, a massive 6000mAh battery, and a hands-free conference speakerphone. But, the key benefit is the Bluetooth Social Mode which allows up to three different users to take their turns to play their own playlists on a single speaker. Pretty cool, right?
The JBL Flip 2 is another great option for your holiday shopping. It features dual performance-tuned JBL drivers and a built-in bass port. The key benefit of the JBL Flip 2 is the SoundClear echo and noise cancellation combined with the state-of the art microphone system to pick up calls on the speaker. Another great speaker, right?
This next item is something I own myself. The JBL Reflect Earbud headphones feature a sweat proof ergonomic design. The JBL Reflect BT’s key benefit is the design of the ergonomic eartips along with the built-in magnets which keep your buds on standby without loose cables. They are so great!
Gift idea #3… GPS devices
There are a number of GPS devices available for those that are in their vehicle often. With bluetooth connectivity for hands-free calling and traffic and weather updates, they are sure to love this gift. They will receive lifetime traffic and map updates so there is no reason to worry about this gift not being useful in the future. Garmin and Tom Tom are two of the GPS manufacturers you will find at Best Buy.
The TomTom Go 50s offers Lifetime TomTom Traffic meaning you can drive with TomTom Traffic for the lifetime of your device. You will also receive Lifetime Maps for the US, Canada, and Mexico which means you will always have the latest maps to get your around. Something really neat is the 3D maps features allowing you to see building and landmarks in stunning 3D. The 5″ touchscreen is the perfect size and has advanced lane guidance so you can be a proactive driver!
As you can see, there are great gifts to be found at Best Buy this #HintingSeason.

I’m so happy to say I have one of these under the tree w/my name on it. I found out by total accident…teasing my son by asking ‘WHO’ he and dad were shopping for without me, and he said, “a GPS” ahhahahaha. Out of the mouths of babes. 😉

I was just in Best Buy yesterday looking at the portable speakers. My kids are asking for one for Christmas.

I love shopping at Best Buy and it is the best place to get techie gadgets. I’m heading there next week to buy a television.

We use our phones now for GPS, but I love those speakers!
Kristen from The Road to Domestication says
I love that GPS system! Definitely a useful and fun gift!
Brett says
its time we upgrade our gps’s herre- ours are archaic and i fear they’ll miss whole towns at this point!! LOL

I want those speakers and I would love to get the new TomTom for my hubby. He is constantly getting lost but ours is one of the really, really old ones.
maria says
Yes!! Add a GoPro and I think that would be my entire Christmas wish-list!! Ha!! We love Best Buy, went last weekend and knocked out some gifts for the kids.
Robin (Masshole Mommy) says
My Garmin is so old & he’s always giving me the wrong directions. I need a new one!
Liz Mays says
My phone always gives me the worst directions. Time for an upgrade!
Amanda Ripsam says
My hubby wants a xbox One but we have to wait until tax time. Rent bills and Kids Christmas stuff comes first.
Stefany says
Agreed! Those darn bills ruin all of our fun! 🙂
Laura says
My older 3 are getting the xbox one as their pretty much only gift.
Stefany says
I bet they will love it!
aimee fauci says
Now that my daughter has moved in with us from another city, she could probably use the Tom Tom. I know I use mine all the time.
Stefany says
I miss my GPS system so much. My husband took it for his truck at work. I am going to look at one of these for myself!
