Top 5 Gifts Under $75
1) Alt Precision Screwdriver Pen

SO Design: Alt Pen Precision Screwdriver Pen - Slate
2) Rechargeable LED Poi Balls

Not only is this outdoor kid’s toy a spectacle of light, it’s also a great exercise of your coordination and dexterity. The Poi dance traces all the way back to the Maori people in New Zealand. It involves swinging soft LED weights rhythmically to create geometric patterns. This version is lighter and brighter, which is great for beginners of all ages. Start with simple movements and as you try to master more complicated ones, you’ll build flexibility and creativity.
3) Single Non-Slip Pet Bowl & Mat Set

Ono: Single Non-Slip Pet Bowl & Mat Set - 32 oz - Cool Gray
4) Tip-Proof Iced Tumbler

A tumbler that won’t spill (even if you try). This tip-proof, no-spill tumbler creates an airtight seal against flat surfaces and only lifts in one direction: up. So you can’t accidentally knock it over, but you can naturally take a sip by lifting it up straight. The tumbler keeps the ice crisp and your hands dry, making it perfect for a sunny summer day.
5) Lucite Self Defense Ring

A lucite self-defense ring is a sleek and modern accessory with a tough side. With just a quick tilt, the flat surface of the ring becomes a sharp, pointed way to help protect yourself.
