December 8 — aka the final day of Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour —  is looming upon Swifties with impending doom. No more grainy live streams, trading friendship bracelets, unhinged surprise song mashups, “Midnight Rain” poses, or Swiftball (IYKYK). That day will be a tragic one, especially since it’s coming right when the holidays are in full swing.

Good thing Five Below is helping to maintain that Taylor Swift-inspired magic! 

As TikToker Randi Kayy (@randikayy) pointed out in a video that’s received more than 107,000 views, the store has a bunch of Swiftie-inspired items available at the moment. And I’m super excited about the gift wrapping options specifically — I’ll need the extra holiday cheer to get through my post-tour sadness.

I might not be exchanging friendship bracelets at Taylor Swift concerts in December, but thanks to Five Below, I can swap friendship bracelet wrapping paper ($3 for 40 square feet), gift labels ($1.25 for eight), gift card holders ($1.25 for two), and gift bags ($2 each). The store’s holiday friendship bracelet pattern is full of fun and bright colors with illustrated bracelets that say festive things like “Santa” and “merry.” 

According to Kayy’s TikTok, Five Below also has “Anti-Hero” lyric-inspired gift bags that read, “I’m the present it’s me!” I just know these bags will immediately get a chuckle out of any Swiftie receiving a gift in one of them.

Not all of the Five Below items are available online, but these gift card holders are:

You’ll need to check your local store for others. But if you’d prefer to shop from your phone, here are a few similar options:

Now I just need to shop for holiday presents that live up to the excitement of this gift wrapping!

Isabel is an incoming sophomore at the University of Vermont. She is studying public communication. She grew up in Portsmouth, Rhode Island, where she frequented the beach often during the summer. Even though her heart belongs to the ocean, the mountains are becoming a close contender. Her favorite part of living in Burlington, Vermont, for college is its unique coffee shops. Her perfect day would consist of going to a cute café in the morning, then spending the day at the beach swimming and reading, then ending the day by shopping and getting dressed up for a nice dinner downtown. Through Dorm Therapy, Isabel is excited to be a voice for young adults embarking on their college journeys and she hopes to make this big transition of life more comfortable for others in the same place as her.
