When money’s tight, you’re always on the lookout for gifts that are long on creativity and spirit but gentle on the debit card. Elsewares—one of those indie-artsy online shops—has something that would make a really memorable offering for all kinds of big occasions: a custom cartoon portrait by Texas artist Ryan Feerer. You email Ryan a photo and two of your friends’ favorite things (the guy pictured here likes coffee and cookies, obvi) and the artist will send you a framed cartoon portrait in a week or two. They’re normally $125, but today there’s a 25-percent-off deal through Daily Candy (code ELSEWARES25), which brings it to under $100 ($93.75 to be exact). Still too steep? Go in on it with seven friends. Find out more about Ryan Feerer’s custom portraits here.
