A Boxer's Christmas

Rich or poor, proactive or procrastinating, we all reach a point in our holiday shopping where the list is down to one, hard-to-shop-for person. Maybe it’s your Great Aunt Mildred who’s 103, who has already bought everything she wants from our Secret Santa store, and has worn the same ugly Christmas sweater since the Nixon administration. Whatever your struggle, we’re here to ease the frustration with our GIFt guides.

NO CAPES!

The past few years in film have been a triumph for superhero fans. Wonder Woman, Logan, Thor: Ragnarok, and a whole utility belt’s worth of good movies graced our screens. Keep your superhero superfans flying high on life with our superhero collection, which features more Thor memorabilia than you can shake Mjölnir at.

The Golden Days

Though years have passed since these nostalgic toys first came on the market, some gifts are simply timeless. No matter what anyone says, you’ll never be too old to play with toys. (Or, you know, get them for your kids. Keep ‘em hip.)

Game On

Not everyone is a gamer. You might think, “Fred already has a good computer, why should I buy an upgrade?” To which Fred would respond, “Imagine eating plain frozen yogurt all your life, and then discovering ice cream sundaes.” We’ve put together a full dessert bar of premium games and gear, including laptops, desktops, consoles, mice, monitors, graphics cards, and other components that do important computer things.

Rated E for Enjoy

If the only thing you know about Beth in IT is that she’s a technophile, then you’re in luck. We’ve got tech toys for every kind of electronic enthusiast: DIY home theaters, photography, VR headsets--there are ROCKETS in here. ROCKETS. What a time to be alive.

Don’t Force It

Forty years of Star Wars fandom has churned out some really creative loot. Are there really people who are paid to dream up Death Star waffle makers, R2-D2 popcorn makers, or Darth Vader Underoos? We’d be jealous if we didn’t post on Imgur for a living.

Cat Tax!

Hopefully we’ve helped you find the perfect present, be it for your Imgur Secret Santa or ornery cousin. Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, and a Happy Festivus to the rest of us.

That cat's bouta become a dark lord

I’d take some adult size Darth Vader Underoos as well, to tell the truth. But only after net neutrality is a lock.

Depending on the kid, Video games or sports. Find out what kind he likes, maybe get a console like the Nintendo Switch or Xbox one. If a 1/?

Jock, posters and stuff for his fav team.Or you know shoot em a text and make him guess a present. He'll tell ya through the guesses maybe 2

First start off by treating him like an adult then put a bow on it then we'll have one less generation of 30yr old kids to deal with.

And if you buy the family plan, you get six premiums. One for you and you can gift the other 5. $14.99 a month. Gift that keeps on giving.

I thought it was 4 accounts, and you technically have to live at the same address (not that they have any way to enforce that).

Video games? But seriously, ask him for a wishlist. Even if you do not want to give straight off the wishlist, you can guess other things.
