Drones, such as the Parrot A.R. Drone, have become more common in every day life.

As the leaves turn different colors and the temperatures drop, start making those Christmas lists and checking for the best sales. For a few gift ideas, look at the list below.

Fitbit Flex
As Christmas comes, so do the pounds. For $99.95 you can combat that. The Fitbit Flex monitors your actions and provides feedback. For example, it monitors sleep habits like tossing and turning so you know the quality of sleep you got that night. It also counts how many steps you have taken daily, along with how many calories you burn throughout the day. The stylish bracelet should last you five hours without needing a charge. It comes in 11 different colors, so you will surely find one that fits you.

Fugoo
As the holidays approach, we begin to attend parties with friends and family. The Fugoo could make those parties more extravagant. The Fugoo, a portable bluetooth speaker, can change any boring party into an exciting dance party. The Fugoo can turn any room into a nightclub with the six separate speakers located in the shell of the speaker, which produce 95 dB of sound. The Fugoo can last 40 hours without needing a charge, which any music lover would love as a gift. For $199.99, the Fugoo can be a great gift for a friend or for yourself.

Parrot A.R. Drone
Drones have started to become more common nowadays. You can get a friend one for as low as $299.99. The Parrot Drone can be used outside and inside, controlled by an app you download on a phone or tablet. Simply use the touch screen on the device and fly it around. The drone also has a camera for recording your flights. Then you can post them anywhere you want to. With all these great features cannot pass us.

Xbox One
Gaming systems have improved significantly in the last decade. The Xbox One has a variety of activities from the good old streaming of videos to battling it out with friends in Xbox Live. The Xbox One offers everyone something for a low price of about $350.

Parrot ZIK
The Parrot ZIK can be a great gift for the music lover. With the noise-canceling technology of these headphones, they can listen to their music peacefully. The wireless headphones won’t get tangled or ripped out of your phone, because they don’t have those troublesome wires. Use Bluetooth to pair your device to the headphones and control your music via an app. Controls for volume and skipping music can be used by touching the outside of the headphone with the touch sensitive earpiece. All these cool features come with a nice price tag of about $400.
