Need to find a gift for that tough to buy for family member?  Don’t know what to buy for the office gift exchange? Owe someone a “Thank You” and don’t know how to say it?  Read on for 5 simple, local Olympia gift ideas–all under $15.

1. Bag of Coffee from Olympia Coffee Roasters

If you haven’t tried Olympia Coffee Roasters coffee your life is incomplete.  They pride themselves in fresh roasting, small batch organic coffees and they do a bang-up job.  This is the ideal gift for the serious or casual coffee drinker.  I would recommend their signature “Big Truck” blend or if you’re feeling festive their seasonal “Holiday Blend.”

They have 2 locations in Olympia: one in downtown and one on the westst side of Olympia. You can also order from their website and have the coffee shipped to yourself or the person you are giving it to. A 12oz bag ranges from $11-15 depending on what type you buy.

2. Pepperoni Sticks from Western Meats

This is a great stocking stuffer idea for all the men in your life.  Western Meats makes a mean pepperoni and they make a variety of types to suit your fancy: Teriyaki, Buffalo, Chipotle, Hot, Venison, and the list goes on.  Western Meats is located on Tumwater (map). A pound of pepperoni will cost you $8-10 depending on the type.

3. Designer Dish Washing Gloves from Compass Rose

Looking to make a fashion statement while doing the dishes?  This is a great gift to spice up an unpleasant chore.  You can find these gloves at Compass Rose in downtown Olympia (map).  A pair of gloves costs $16.

4. Smoked Dog Bone from Western Meats

While you’re at Western Meats picking up that Pepperoni, pick up a giant smoked bone for the family dog.  Fido will thank you.  One of these big bones costs $10.

5. Vacu-Vin Wine Saver from The Wine Loft

Tired of wasting the rest of a bottle of wine after you’ve had a glass? You won’t be anymore.  This handy little device acts a vacuum pump, extracts the air and re-seals the bottle of wine.  Highly recommended. It prolongs the life of a bottle of wine for several days without a discernible difference.  Great gift idea for someone at the office or for anyone who enjoys wine. The Wine Loft (located in downtown Olympia, map) has these in stock for $13.
