Potential Gifts Under Five Dollars
Delivered September 28, 2019. Contributor: Gail
Goals
To have a list of 20 potential gifts under 5 dollars for US citizens above 60 years of age. An ideal response would be 20 gifts in different categories delivered in a slide deck with a picture illustrating the gift, a title with the gift explained in 2-3 words, and a text box explaining in 1 tweet why this would be a good gift.

Summary Of Our Early Findings Relevant To The Goals
- Our first hour of research found nine potential gifts under 5 dollars for US citizens above 60 years of age. These gifts are all in different categories. We provided the name of the gift, the price, where it could be purchased, and a description/potential tweet.
- We did not have time in the initial research to create slides for them.
- We can, in the subsequent research, provide Google Slides, as we do not work in Power Point. If an exact slide template format is required, one should be provided to us in any reply. If not, we can create our own.
- Please select one or more of the options provided in the proposed scoping section below.
