I love this time of the year because you can usually find a lot of gadgets that you’ve been wanting come down in price. It seems however that the deals aren’t as great as far as gadgets go. That’s just my personal observation. At the same time, we’re all on tighter budgets too. Well, instead of showing you some ‘top’ gifts that are probably way off budget, here’s a list of under $50 gadgets you can consider for any mom or kids.
jWIN Electronics JX-MP224 1.5″ Color Video 4GB MP3 Player/FM Radio
$26.99
What I like: 4GB built in flash memory with expandable memory with miniSD. It even can be a voice recorder and one of the video formats accepted is .AVI. Rechargeable battery.
Sennheiser RS-110 Wireless Headphones
$37.99
This is an awesome price. Sennheiser is reputedly a good brand for headsets and audio equipment. I’ve had this unit on my radar for a long time and it usually averages $100. I eventually settled for a cheaper brand but having a wireless headset is a great mom tool like watching late night TV without waking up the kids. That’s what I use mine for most of the time.
George Foreman Vari-Temp Grill
$29.00
Last week, our family has used our 6 year old George Foreman grill twice and I will probably use it another time in a day or two because the girls asked me for grilled cheese sandwiches and I promised it to them. Easiest way to make them and a ton of other things too. I love this grill for helping me make healthy meals easily. We had a deal on hamburger recently. It was so good I stocked up but they were the 80% lean ones. I normally only buy 93% lean. The fat difference between them was a lot. Especially when I’m not used to it. So when we made hamburgers last week and we used the grill, all the fat dripped out. Yet the burgers still tasted awesome. Definitely a good gift choice especially for the price.
Conair Compact Garment Steamer
$29.93
Which mom wants to spend time ironing? Not me, you can bet your bottom dollar. Ironing ranks all the way at the bottom. Even doing dishes trumps it. But a steamer is so so much easier and faster too. We have a small one and it’s several years old but seen many uses.
HoMedics – Back Revitalizer 5 Motor Massage Cushion
$25.00
I got one for my husband a few years ago, the shiatsu one. It is great. Now they have ones with heat which would probably be a lot more relaxing.
HoMedics SoundSpa Lullaby With Picture Projection
$17.99
This is so cute! When my babies were still babies, we had one of those mobiles that made stars on the ceiling. They so love that. Even now, my youngest at 5 years old still enjoys the stars going around and around.
While not exactly a comprehensive list, I hope we’ve at least given you some ideas if you’ve been stuck what to get and not burn a hole in your wallet – that is important.

12 years ago maybe I would have said oh yeah! These days I really shudder at that thought. There are way too many emails that come through my multiple in boxes. Even if there weren’t, having email disrupt me each time is really really bad for productivity.
