The Ultimate Gift Guide for 2022 Holiday Shopping
1. Arlee Home Fashions Suede Oversized Backrest Pillow
Perhaps you invited some friends over and don’t have enough seats, or maybe your significant other prefers *extra* cushioning on the couch. Regardless, the Arlee Home Fashions Suede Oversized Backrest Pillow will elevate any movie night. This style comes in four colors: burgundy (pictured above), beige, blue and dark tan.
2. Grubhub Gift Card
Does your streaming buddy prefer to order in—rather than cook—when binge-watching a show? If so, consider gifting a Grubhub gift card that can be used at their leisure. The food delivery app has countless options, which vary by location.
3. Natori Faux-Shearling Sherpa Robe
Take comfort to a whole new level with the Natori Faux-Shearling Sherpa Robe, which features long sleeves, pockets, a shawl collar and a self-tie waist. The piece is sold at Saks Fifth Avenue, where it’s rated 5 out of 5 stars. One person wrote, “Great cozy winter robe. Quality material.” In addition to morning teal (pictured above), it also comes in deep sea (green) and bone (off white).
4. What Do You Meme? The Office Game
Does a friend or a family member love The Office? Be sure to check out this adult party game, where players compete to create the funniest memes inspired by the hit TV series. Although it’s ideal for parties, it can also serve as an icebreaker when friends arrive at your next movie night.
5. Glam Up Facial Sheet Mask (Pack of 12)
The pack comes with 12 masks that target different skin types and issues, including refreshing green tea, rejuvenating tea tree, moisturizing avocado, firming pomegranate, revitalizing Japanese sake, soothing aloe vera, detoxifying oatmeal and more.
6. Lumon Industries Severance T-Shirt
The bizarre sci-fi thriller has taken the world by storm, and so it comes as no surprise that it's returning for season two. It'll be a while before the new episodes drop, but on the bright side, you can prepare for the return of the innies by sporting this awesome Lumon Industries tee. (FYI, youare reading this caption freely and of your own accord...)
7. Ynm Weighted Blanket
Do you know someone who could use a natural calming remedy during edge-of-your-seat flicks? Look no further than this weighted blanket. Not only does it come in 33—yes, 33—different colors, but it’s also available in several sizes and weights, ranging from five pounds to 30 pounds.
9. The Office: Talking Button
If your binge-watching buddy tends to interrupt, try purchasing The Office: Talking Button, which also comes with a trivia book. It will eliminate the need to talk during scenes, but it will also serve as a reminder to continue the conversation later.
10. Mini Projector For Outdoor Movies
Users can bring it outside for an outdoor movie night, or they can set it up indoors for a makeshift theater. Either way, this mini projector is compatible with TV sticks, smartphones, USB plugs and SD cards. It also comes with a projector screen, making it a one-stop purchase.
11. The White Lotus Resort & Spa Terry Cloth Cotton Robe

13. Great Northern Popcorn Antique Popcorn Machine
Sure, anyone can pour some kennels in a pan and make half-popped homemade popcorn. But if you’re looking to take it up a notch, be sure to check out this easy-to-use antique popcorn machine, which is designed to fit on a countertop. (It makes about six gallons of popcorn.)
14. Succession ATN News Mug
Sip your favorite beverages in style with this clever Succession mug—which, fun fact, is actually Kelly Ripa-approved.
15. You By Caroline Kepnes
You’ve probably heard of Netflix’s popular series, You, but did you know that it’s based on the namesake book by Caroline Kepnes? Once you’ve finished reading the first novel, be sure to check out the rest of the series, which includes Hidden Bodies and You Love Me.
16. UGG Sherpa Blanket
If weighted blankets are a no-go, consider gifting a luxurious blanket—like the UGG Sherpa Throw. The piece comes in four different colors.
17. Dearfoams Sydney Shearling Scuff Slipper
Based on the product description, these slippers are a must-have. “Our plush and luxurious shearling will always keep you feeling relaxed, no matter what you’re doing,” it reads. “Sheepskin fibers are naturally breathable and have temperature-regulating properties to keep your feet cool in the summer and warm in the winter.”
18. Samsung Soundbar
There’s nothing quite like going to a movie theater to watch a brand-new flick. Along with the dark environment, the sound quality is always so extreme that the bone-chilling vibrations can be felt for long after. This setup will help you recreate that experience at home, complete with a soundbar and speakers.
19. 'Trust Me I'm The Producer' Coffee Mug
Whether you know an actual crew member or someone who thinks they work in the entertainment industry, this mug is a fantastic under $20 gift. The cup features “Trust Me I’m the Producer” written on both sides, and it’s safe to use in the dishwasher and microwave.
