With the holidays’ arrival, stores are prone to high demand and out-of-stock items.

   If you didn’t get a head start on gifts this year, here are a few items and recommendations found on Amazon that can be delivered quickly and help close out your holiday shopping bag.

   Slippers: These cozy shoes are reliable on any occasion. They are perfect to sport with a casual outfit, for wintry morning walks, and even for use inside. From Uggs to Birkenstocks, high-quality slippers can be challenging to find. Amazon, however, offers an equally comfortable alternative, with a 4.6/5 rating.

   Blankets: In my opinion, there is no such thing as too many blankets. Especially during the winter, there is no better place to be than snuggled up on your couch with your favorite blanket as you feel the heat radiate from the fireplace. Not only do they offer the comfort factor, but they also serve as decor, and can help to achieve a certain desired room aesthetic.

   Journals: Planners and journals for many are ways in which they can keep their life in check. They may also act as a release to thoughts that could not have been spoken. Amazon provides a multitude of journal designs and prompts to influence self-reflection and stay in touch with your day-to-day life.

   Home and Car Decor: Decor changes with the seasons whether it’s within your home or even in your car. Whichever you prefer, Amazon offers a plethora of different decor to appeal to your specific taste and style.

   Indoor Lighting: Recently, indoor lighting such as LED lights have been popular as decor in bedrooms and provide a soothing yet colorful ambiance to your personal living space. Amazon provides different versions of this concept, all of which deliver notes of comfort and relaxation.

   Clothes: Although not explicitly known for it, Amazon offers clothing, accessories, and apparel that could arguably be just as high quality as a name clothing brand. At other retail companies, fashion in high demand may be easier found on Amazon rather than in the original store.
