We understand that you might need to cut back a bit this year, so we came up with a list of presents for less than $30.

DC Hands T-Shirt
$27
Last year, our mention of Ork’s DC-neighborhood poster was a big hit, so we thought we’d kick off this year’s bargain-gift guide with another item to show your DC pride. This time, it’s this clever DC Hands T-shirt.

De*Nada Knitted Gloves
$26
Help your gift recipient stay warm and support local designers while doing it. De*Nada Designs offers loads of chunky, stylish scarves, hats, and more. Personally, we’re fans of these fingerless knit gloves.

Beer Soap
$6.99
What do you get for the beer lover in your life who has already sampled every cask ale out there? Short of a dedicated barstool at ChurchKey, these beer soaps may be your best bet. Pick three suds labels—anything from Blue Moon to Guinness Stout—and get showering.

Hey, Washingtonian, whoo hoo!

Thanks so much for featuring my beer soap trio! How totally exciting to find myself here, I really appreciate it.

I do have more beer soap available, though you most likely wouldn’t get it by the holidays, it’s still a great gift to yourself all year round.

Thanks again!

I was wondering why the Santa Flying pig did not make it to the Washingtonian gift under $30...what a shame! I love my Santa Flying Pig!

LAME under $30 gifts. Disappointed Washingtonian.
