Top 5 Practical Gifts
1) Electric Chainsaw Carving Knife

2) DUEX Pro Portable USB Laptop Monitor

3) Non-Toxic Lubricating Solution - Home & Garage Bundle
NEXUS Green: Non-Toxic Lubricating Solution - 2 oz
4) Guacamole Preservation Container
Usually guac won’t last more than a day without browning. But this guacamole container creates an airtight seal that keeps oxygen out, so it stays green and fresh for days. (It’s great for hummus, salsa, and tzatziki, too.) Push the the container’s base to remove the air, which raises the guac to the top. The push feature comes in handy as you start enjoying the dip—give a press and it lifts the contents to the top and avoids the need to scrape dip off the sides.
5) At-Home Personal Vision Test Device
Stay on top of changes in your eyesight with an at-home vision test—no optometrist appointment needed. The optical tool measures the lens power needed to correct nearsightedness, farsightedness, and astigmatism, and works with your smartphone to keep track of your eyesight info in its app.
