I’ve lost count of how many times I have had a mini panic attack on my way to a birthday or holiday party throughout my adult life. It’s only gotten worse since developing the infamous “mom brain” we all know and love. I mean, how much more can we possibly fit in our already busy and overloaded minds? I used to resort to gift cards, but I’m not a fan at how impersonal they can feel especially if the person I’m gifting to prefers something more meaningful. There is an obvious hack that I hadn’t even considered until recently and now it’s my go-to when I need a quick gift: CVS.

There’s a reason why CVS is the ultimate convenience store. They’re on every corner in most towns, have a wide range of products to choose from, and are super easy to navigate in a pinch in comparison to huge grocery stores. My local CVS is my go-to spot for drugstore necessities, greeting cards, and gift cards, but one day I decided to wander the other aisles and ended up striking gold. I found kids toys, wellness essentials, and household items that were perfect for gifting.

What’s most convenient though is that you can quickly browse CVS’ inventory on their website or mobile app before leaving your house then order for pick up at your nearest store. That way you don’t have to wrangle little people while on a time-crunch (that’s always a recipe for disaster). To make your holiday shopping even easier, we’ve rounded up our top picks from CVS for adults and kids.

Gifts for Adults

Whether you’re shopping for an aunt, sister-in-law, or work BFF, CVS has tons of cute options to choose from. Build a gift bag with hair styling essentials, their drugstore makeup faves, or self care must-haves for their next at-home spa night.
