Short on cash but need creative gift ideas for the green and healthy loved ones on your list?  Find the perfect gift without the stress this year.  Our 2008 Holiday gift guide was made for any budget or personality.  Best of all, it can be done all online.

This year's biggest trend was hands down, going green which is why quite a few of our top gift ideas are of course earth friendly.  Kicking off our list for 2009 are Yoga ToeSox made with Organic cotton for only $10.  The perfect gift for the new yogi in your family.  These are great for anyone who slides during yoga or may just sweat a little more than most.  Buy these online at Amazon.com.

For the domestic Suzy Homemaker or Anal Adam on your list, you've got to buy Nellie's Dryer Balls.  The eco friendly version of dryer sheets reduces lint, wrinkles and drying time (which means less energy is used by your dryer).  They soften fabrics naturally and last approx 1000 washes.  These balls can be purchased for $18 at various online retailers. 

One of the most shocking revelations this year proved that bpa was in fact a cancer causing chemical used in our water bottles.  Reduce your risk and those you love by purchasing  a non-Toxic Sigg Aluminum Water Bottle.  This bottle is stylish, ight weight, leakproof and no weird after taste here.  Prices start around $15.

Need an idea for a gift suitable for the active indidual, then you must check out Koie's Puddle Jumper Bag.  Listed as one of Oprah's favorite things, you can use this bag for a weekend getaway or trip to the gym. Many swear its the perfect diaper bag too! From your ipod, glasses, pens, papers, clothing, bottles, cosmetics, etc., you can even throw your stinky sneakers in the back separated ventilated pocket! This bag represents functionality at its best while not compromising your sense of style!  Priced at a reasonable $75, you can purchase this gift at Koieproducts.com.

For the lady on your list that likes to squeeze in her gym time before or during work, this gift is a time saver!  The Hot Iron Cover allows you to pamper, straighten and jet back to work without allowing extra time for the straight iron to cool.  Just slip the cover on top of the appliance immediately after unplugging and go.  A must have for the straight hair obsessed. 


And lastly, for the fashionably active, this leopard print yoga mat is a must have.  Show your inner animal in the studio with this quarter inch thick yoga mat.  Starting at $19.99 this fashion statement can be purchased online at http://diet.com/store.
