The holiday season is officially in full swing. And despite telling yourself you're going to get a head start on your gift shopping, like, a month ago, you might already feel like you're behind schedule. The good news is that you still have plenty of time; even if you procrastinate way more, we guarantee you'll still be able to find brilliant options, especially at your local Target. The option to buy online might be questionable if you wait *too* long, but you can always filter your store's selection to show what's available immediately. That way, you can just click "in-store pickup" and not have to worry about whether or not your gifts will hit your doorstep in time. Whether you're looking for cool new toys, cozy pajamas, or cute stocking stuffers, we've curated a guide to the best last-minute presents you can find at Target ahead. Keep reading to shop our selections!
The A New Day Women's Eve Tall Dress Boots ($40) look luxe without the steep price tag, and they're editor-approved. One of our editors tested them out and said they're "easy to pair with all kinds of outfits and look just as nice as designer options." Check out her complete review of the A New Day Women's Eve Tall Dress Boots.
You can't go wrong with gifting a cozy blanket, especially a neutral-colored one, so you don't have to worry about whether or not it'll match their aesthetic. The Threshold Cozy Chenille Bed Blanket ($59) checks off all our boxes.
The Casaluna Clarity Oil Diffuser ($16) comes with an essential oil mix and eight reeds that help to spread the scent of the oils throughout your space. We love how it doubles as a lovely decorative piece.
If they love to maintain an elevated aesthetic and entertain, consider buying them the Hearth & Hand with Magnolia Miniature Four in a Row Game ($15). Or, if you know they already have a similar version, consider the equally adorable Pick-Up Sticks Game ($10) or the Bingo Gaming Set ($50).
Target has so many stylish slipper options for the whole family, starting with the Stars Above Women's Chandra Slide Slippers ($20), which look luxe but won't break the bank. For men, one of our top picks is the Goodfellow & Co Men's Myles Adjustable Slide Slippers ($15).

Target's Favorite Day line is seriously underrated and full of fun (and delicious) treats. Hear us out: How cute would it be to curate a cute basket full of sweets from the line, like the Favorite Day Holiday Cookies & Cream Mix ($11), Holiday Salted Caramel Popcorn ($2), and Belgian Milk Chocolate Covered Pretzels ($1). To make it extra cute, put it all in the Brightroom 11" Small Coiled Rope Cream ($8), add a bow, and you're good to go.
We love the fun texture of the A New Day Athleisure Soft Weekender Bag ($40), and so do shoppers. "This bag is amazing!" writes a shopper. "I snagged several while on sale for gifts. It is VERY roomy and the quilted look is so unique!"
Matching family pajamas can get really expensive, but the Wondershop Holiday Cream Tartan Plaid Matching Family Pajamas Collection ($10-$25) are fairly priced, and high quality. There's an option for kids, parents, and even your four-legged friend.
The family will have a blast with the Wondershop Holiday Ninjabread Gingerbread Man Cookie Kit ($5). It comes with gingerbread cookie mix, icing, candies, and four ninja cookie cutters.

Capture fun memories with the Fujifilm Instax Mini 11 Camera ($77). It makes a fun gift they can actually use over the holidays, and it comes in a bunch of different colors. Just don't forget to throw Fujifilm Instax Mini Instant Film Twin Pack ($15) into their stocking, too.
Family game night has never looked so good thanks to the SkeeBall The Classic Arcade Game ($24). It includes a fold-up skee-ball game board, five solid wooden skee-balls, and a score pad.
If breakfast is the most important meal for them, gift the Dash Mini Waffle Maker ($13). They can make yummy waffles in just ten minutes, and it's easy to clean with a nonstick surface. One of our editors tested the Halloween version and deemed it a must-have, and judging from the top-notch reviews, we're guessing this one's just as popular. Read her view of the Dash Pumpkin Mini Waffle Maker.
The Professor Puzzle USA, Inc. Simple Joys Jigsaw Puzzle ($29) is one of the most darling puzzle designs we've ever seen. It has 1,000 pieces, so it'll keep them occupied for some time.
