The holidays are stressful enough as is without worrying about whether the gift you bought online will arrive in time to give it on Christmas (or by the end of Hanukkah). Luckily, sites like Amazon take the stress out of shopping with their quick shipping options for Prime members. If you need a last-minute gift for someone on your Christmas list, here are a few options they’re sure to love — and, above all else, get in time.

Le Creuset Mug Set
Some gifts last forever — so long as you don’t drop them. That said, my set of six has seen its fair share of bumps and bruises and has lived to see another pot of coffee. Whether you’re getting them one in their favorite hue, contributing to a collection, or kickstarting one, you can’t go wrong with Le Creuset’s classic Vancouver stoneware mug.
These patches are a “non-negotiable” part of our account manager’s morning routine. “I start my day with Grace & Stella’s energizing under-eye patches,” she says. “I put them on while the coffee’s brewing, and they get right to work de-puffing and boosting hydration.”
The team at Brad’s Deals spotted a limited-time discount on Polaroid’s popular instant cam bundle. Thrill all the family with instant holiday pics (and save a bundle, too). Brad’s Deals are here to help you capture keepsakes you’ll cherish forever at a fraction of the price.
Impressive noise cancellation and plush ear cups for all-day comfort: Whether you’re flying or focused, these headphones shut out the world just how you want.
This thermometer reads the temperature in seconds, so your steak hits perfect doneness every time. Plus, it’s waterproof, backlit, and built to survive grill-side spills.
Treat the pet parent in your life to a trusty camera that lets them check in on their furry friends while they’re away. With a 360-degree view of the room, there’s no need to worry about any blind spots where a pet may be hiding. Not only does it have night vision but it also has two-way audio to listen and chat with pets that can help relieve both pet and owner anxiety.
This stylish duffle bag is the perfect travel companion, whether it’s to the gym or for a weekend getaway. It has multiple compartments, a convenient wet bag, and a strap to keep it secure on your giftee’s luggage or carry-on.
The Our Place Wonder Oven is a versatile countertop tool that aggregates multiple features and functions. It can air fry, toast, roast, bake, reheat, broil, and steam. It’s just what beginner or advanced home chefs need to upgrade their kitchen this holiday season.
A gift card to Uncommon Goods is the perfect gift for the person who either has everything or loves a useful and unique find. They can shop for everything from experiences, like cooking classes or arts and crafts workshops, to personalized gifts, including a custom cheese board.
You’ve probably seen this bottle everywhere, because aside from the behemoth Stanley Tumbler, it’s probably the most popular one. Available in countless color combos, the real benefit of the Owala over the Stanley is its two-in-one lid, which locks, but lets you quickly sip from a straw or tilt back the bottle to drink, well, like you’re chugging from a bottle. It’s a cute, largely spill-proof gift to get a friend or your perpetually dehydrated family member.
Though your local ice cream shop may have closed for the season, nothing is stopping you from having your favorite frozen dessert at home. The Ninja Creami, which is on sale now, makes making ice cream, sorbets, milkshakes, and more easy: prep your base, freeze it, and process it using one of the Creami’s seven settings. Mix in your favorite candy, blend up vegan or non-dairy ice cream, or quickly mix a milkshake in your favorite flavor.
