One of the best things about having a roommate is being able to share. Whether you're borrowing a sweater or you love using each other's cool kitchen items, they're always willing to lend something when you might need it. So, as you buy presents [1] for everyone on your list this holiday season, you won't want to forget about your roomie, too.
When it comes to gifting them, it's time to say thanks for always being there, and maybe even get them a gift you can secretly enjoy, too. Ahead, we curated a list of picks that will surely put a smile on their face. From amazing candles to a cool kettle [2], you just might reap the benefits of these, too. Take a look.
