29 Black Friday stocking filler killer deals for gamers, all under $50
I've been wading through all the Black Friday deals guides, and have picked out the very best stocking fillers for under $50. Why? Because I feel your pain.
This year I have two Christmas stockings to fill—more than usual but I admit it's not as dire a situation as some of you out there. Both the recipients are avid gamers, and both are fully grown adults (physically, though I'm not too sure about mentally). They've grown relatively discerning in their adulthood, and it's not so easy to find presents that are both cheap and high-quality to fill their stockings. Tech is an especially difficult one, because your average person doesn't have time to scour reams of reviews when they're scrambling to make the yuletide gay.
Thankfully, I have three years of gaming tech reviews under my Santa's belt, so you can concentrate on watching your budget, rather than hundreds of reviews for a few little stocking fillers. This deals season is brimming with affordable tech too, and I'm confident the below selection of cheap-but-good gaming mice, keyboards, headsets and even merchandise will keep the gamers in your life amused until it's time to open the rest of their presents.
Some of the most thoughtful gifts will come in the form of merchandise. It shows you don't just want to drag them away from their favorite games when dinner's ready, but that you really pay attention to their passions. Fans of the old Metal Gear and DOOM franchises will be pleased by the goodies below, and prints are a timeless way to say «Those hundreds of hours you've spent staring at the screen have all been worth it.»
