The 2022 PopCult Gift Guide Master List

The PopCulteer
December 9, 2022

This is it. The Master List of every single thing I recommended in The 2022 PopCult Gift Guide.

I made changes to The Gift Guide last year.   Last year I started combining every day’s recommendations into a single post. This forced me to be more concise in my descriptions, which was a good thing. Instead of writing 4,000 words every day about three gift ideas, I managed to cover five gift ideas a day in about 1,500 words. That continued this year, and the end result was more than 100 gift suggestions made in 20 days.

This made my life easier, as did skipping weekends. It’s no secret that a good number of PopCult readers visit the blog while they’re at work. Dropping gift suggestions over the weekend gave the items I picked then a bit of a short shrift. This way every gift suggestion gets full exposure, and I got a couple of days each week to recharge my batteries. Plus I didn’t have to suspend PopCult‘s regular weekend features for the month.

Because of the nature of how I did the gift guide this year, the links will take you to the post that includes the items listed, but you may have to scroll down a bit to find the exact item you’re looking for.

With that said, let’s dive into the Master List…
