Sometimes shopping at the last-minute can be a good thing. You get your pick of all of the price cuts, and in many cases you find gifts that you would’ve never thought of that will be useful for the new year. Here are a few items that I think that you should check out if you are still shopping for last-minute gifts.

Kodak Printomatic Instant Print Camera – $68.99

Kodak is making sure your holiday season will always be remembered with their Printomatic Instant Print camera, so at your Office Dinner or Christmas Party, you can go ahead and take quick snapshots and have the images readily available on 2×3 prints to hand to your family & friends. I’ve used the Printomatic myself over the holidays and the point and shoot approach has worked a great deal, and the fact that there’s no messy cartridges to change out (or batteries to have to change), the Printomatic by Kodak was a hit at my holiday party. Keep a picture booth in your back pocket by picking up the Printomatic today.

D-Link Omna 180 Cam HD – $149.99

Smarthome cameras have been on the rise the past few years, and if you are looking for a great home camera that works with Apple’s HomeKit platform, has a super simple set up, look no further than the Omna 180 camera by D-Link. It’s one of the few cameras on the market that comes with expandable storage via Micro-USB, which means there’s no subscriptions you need to sign up for. More importantly, the Omna’s 180-degree camera is always on giving you full HD 1920×1080 resolution, even in complete darkness, and you can witness all things going on in your house courtesy of the Omna app from the App Store. Currently available for $149.99, you can head over to D-Link to pick up one.

Lifeproof iPhone X Cases – Starting at $49.99

With Apple’s iPhone X being a hot holiday item, if you are lucky to get one in your hands, you absolutely must have a case on it. Even with AppleCare, the iPhone X deserves a bit more hands-on protection, and there’s no better cases than the Lifeproof cases. Lifeproof offers three tiers of cases for the Apple flagship, the SLAM ($49.99), the NËXT ($79.99) and the FRE ($89.99) each with the own personal take on protecting the front and back glass of your iPhone X. The Slam is drop proof, the Next is both drop and “weather” proof, while the Fre is completely waterproof and covers the screen while the Slam and Next do not. I love the Next for it’s form factor and the fact that the screen is exposed, but it’s all a matter of personal preference. You can check out all three and decide for yourself over at Lifeproof.com
