To take the guesswork out of buying gifts this year, we at North Mecklenburg News asked our friends at The Grommet for their latest and greatest practical gift suggestions for 2021.
These guides are geared towards specific interests. You’ll be able to find something for even the toughest person on your Christmas shopping list.
Top 5 Practical Gifts
1) Non-Toxic Waterproof Spray - Set of 2

DetraPel: Non-Toxic Waterproof Spray - Set of 2 - Out on the Town Pack
2) Garage Organization Value Pack

Wrap-It Storage: Garage Organization Value Pack
3) Olive Tree Adoption & Oil Assortment

This olive oil gift set comes with a story. By adopting an olive tree for a year, you’ll learn about the family-owned business that has been making pure, cold-pressed, extra virgin olive oil in Southern Italy for generations. (You’ll even get a snapshot of the grove!) And, of course, you will also get three tins of their classic oil flavors.
4) Easy Clean Steel No Waste Shaker

Mix things up with a leak-proof stainless steel shaker bottle. Its capsule-like design does the blending job without any accessories, and can even work to puree soft fruits—just shake it. There are no corners for protein powder or supplement mix to lurk in, which also means no sneaky spots for bacteria to grow. Copper lining between double-wall insulation keeps drinks the right temperature.
5) 10 ft Charging Cable

Extra-long and extra-strong, this steel charging cable has an exoskeleton that protects it from damage and makes it virtually indestructible. It also uses special coil technology to minimize pressure where cables usually fray.
