Chances are high you may be looking at last minute gifts for your dj mates, or perhaps your girlfriend has no idea what to give you. Even better yet, I know we are ALL tired of lame stocking stuffers, so how about sending your mom some real gift ideas that won’t just sit in the drawer.
Let’s start off with the perfect suffers under $10 and then move into the more pricey stuff.
Headphone Adapters ($1.99)
These things are the socks of digital djing, your mom should just be buying extra pairs every year without even asking questions. I like these versions better than the screw in kind because they work with in-ear monitors too! Available here

Officially way cooler than candy cane- and potentially way more fun! Available here
LAPTOP STICKERS ($6.99)
