Best Buy Canada’s Gift Guide: The Best Gift Ideas in One Place

If you’re looking for an easy way to shop for gifts for everyone on your list, Best Buy has a great selection of gift choices for every occasion. Whether you need ideas for gifting or you’d like to see an assortment of the latest tech that would make a good gift for any occasion, you can shop in-store or online and easily find the perfect gift for someone special.

Gifts for Mom

She deserves more than something last-minute. Gifts for mom should be thoughtful, useful, and a little bit indulgent. From smartwatches that help her stay on top of her day to digital frames that keep her favourite memories on display, we’ve curated picks that bring comfort and connection together. A great  Christmas gift for mom could be a premium espresso machine for quiet mornings, a tablet for streaming her favourite shows, or a massaging foot spa that turns evenings into self-care. Whether she’s tech-savvy or just ready to upgrade her routine, these gifts are made to make her feel appreciated—every day.

This collection was curated with searchers like you in mind—whether you’re looking for Christmas gifts for mom, gift ideas for your mom, or simply something meaningful for a mother figure in your life.

Gifts for Dad

Whether he’s a DIY pro, a movie buff, or just hard to shop for, the best gifts for dad combine everyday usefulness with just the right upgrade. Think noise-cancelling headphones for his daily tasks, a smart speaker for the garage, or a new 4K TV to level up game day. A Christmas gift for dad could be as simple as a wireless charging station—or as exciting as a top-rated soundbar or a toolset that finally replaces the one he’s had since college. And when it comes to the extras? We’ve got stocking stuffers for men that are anything but filler: portable power banks, smart key finders, Bluetooth trackers, and more. Practical, tech-savvy, and totally dad-approved.

Gifts for Kids

Make their eyes light up. Gifts for kids should bring joy and curiosity, whether it’s a craft that fuels creativity, a toy that moves, or a game they can play with everyone. This collection includes age-appropriate surprises and imaginative gifts that hold attention beyond unwrapping.

Think playful stocking stuffers, family-friendly games, and hands-on kits that spark excitement again and again.

Gifts for Someone Special

Some gifts carry extra weight—the kind you give to a partner, a close friend, or someone who’s been your constant through it all. In this collection, discover gifts for someone special that speak volumes, whether you're looking for a romantic gesture, a personal thank-you, or something quietly meaningful. From cozy luxuries to timeless keepsakes, we’ve curated both gifts for her and gifts for him that feel thoughtful without being predictable. And when you want to add a little extra surprise? Explore our stocking stuffer ideas—small gifts with big heart, perfect for finishing touches and unexpected smiles. 

For Your Partner

Whether it’s your first holiday together or your tenth anniversary, the best gifts are the ones that feel like you thought about them all year. From smartwatches and premium earbuds to digital photo frames and sleek grooming tools, our collection of gifts for him and gifts for her is built to impress—and built to last. Want something simple but meaningful? A smart mug, a sunrise alarm clock, or a favourite vinyl with a Bluetooth turntable can turn small moments into rituals. And if you’re going big, don’t forget the little things: our stocking stuffer ideas add just the right finishing touch.

For Your Best Friend

They’ve been through everything with you—so give them a gift that shows how much that means. Whether it’s a Bluetooth speaker that travels everywhere with them, a cozy heated blanket for movie nights, or a mini projector for impromptu watch parties, our gifts for someone special are all about shared moments. We’ve included gifts for her and gifts for him that feel fun, personal, and just unexpected enough. Add a few stocking stuffers—like wireless chargers, fun phone cases, or skincare tech—and you’ve got a gift they’ll remember well past the holidays.

For Long-Distance Gifting

When you can’t be there in person, the right gift brings you closer. Our favourite long-distance gifts include digital photo frames preloaded with memories, video-calling devices that make connection feel effortless, and cozy tech like heated massagers and sleep sound machines. Whether you're browsing gifts for her or gifts for him, you’ll find items that feel comforting, thoughtful, and incredibly useful. And if you're mailing it in? Our stocking stuffer ideas include lightweight, shippable gadgets and personal tech gifts that travel beautifully.

Gifts for Every Interest

The best gifts don’t just suit a person—they reflect what they love. These collections are designed around passions, lifestyles, and the things people choose to do with their time.

Top Gaming Gifts

Gamers know exactly what they like—and so do we. Our top gaming gifts deliver performance, comfort, and immersion, with picks like high-res headsets, charging stations, RGB lighting kits, and ergonomic gear.

People light up when you support what they love. That’s why gifts for every hobby are one of our most intentional sections. From fitness to art, from baking to journaling, from DIY projects to weekend escapes—every pick here is meant to fit into their passion, not interrupt it.

Not sure what they’re into? Look for tools that help them do what they already enjoy, or curated kits that let them try something new. A gift that fuels a hobby is never wasted.

Gifts for the Home

Home is personal. These gifts for the home are picked with care for people who love nesting, hosting, or curating beautiful spaces. Think cozy throws, elegant drinkware, smart kitchen tools, and decor pieces that work in any room.

Perfect for housewarmings, holidays, or hostess thank-yous, these gifts feel like comfort and style in equal measure. Need something seasonal? Many of our smaller home goods make excellent stocking stuffer ideas that elevate any corner of their space.

Thoughtful doesn’t have to mean expensive. Our collection of gifts under $50 proves that meaningful moments can come in small packages. Whether you’re shopping for stocking stuffers, a coworker’s gift exchange, or a sweet surprise for a friend, these picks are practical, stylish, and anything but generic. From cozy accessories and home accents to travel-ready tech and self-care favourites, these under-$50 finds deliver high-impact gifting without the high price tag.

Gifts Under $100

When you want to give something elevated—but still stay within budget—our gifts under $100 hit the sweet spot. These pieces feel premium, with quality that goes beyond their price point. Explore beautifully packaged skincare sets, wireless audio gear, personalized accessories, and crowd-pleasing home upgrades. Perfect for those “just right” moments—like your sibling, your in-laws, or your best friend—these gifts show up strong without going overboard.

Best Buy Gift Cards

When you want to let them choose, but still give something thoughtful, Best Buy gift cards are the answer. A digital or physical gift card gives your recipient the freedom to pick exactly what they want.

It’s not the fallback—it’s the flexible gift that guarantees satisfaction, works for any occasion, and always arrives on time. Pair it with a handwritten note or one of our curated gift boxes for a personal touch.
