I need some holiday gift ideas (that I will probably gift to myself as well)!

These are the things I'm glad I got back then and would get again if they broke, that fit the price category:

an onion comb for dicing
shoehorn with a long handle
3 stage knife sharpening station
wireless phone charger (no more fiddling in the dark with the cable)
magnetic keychain holder (from AntPocket tools)
Unicorn Beetle Pro phone case and belt holster (if you're on board with the aesthetic)
a pair of Klim earbuds (wired, with foam tips)

Unicorn Beetle Pro

Tbh, their stuff used to be fire but on some phonws the cases are just too brittle. I went through three of them on my Note 20 Ultra, all cracking in the same way (in the corners), before giving up and switching to a UAG case

I ditched UBP for a Spigen case. It's the only case I've found that has a low profile built in lens cover/shutter.

Thanks for the heads up, I had no cracking issues yet, but after years of daily use the screen protector got worn out and the kickstand broke loose. Now I'm on the second one of the same model, but it's still going strong with no real issues.
