Buying for someone who camps is hard. They already own the obvious things, half of what looks useful only fits certain rigs, and nobody wants another novelty mug. So we pulled this list from our own shelves. Every item below is something we stock and ship from Upland, California.
Stocking stuffers under $25
Buy without knowing much about their setup. Multitools, lights and camp-kitchen odds and ends get used no matter what they tow.
-
$12.99
Mini 14-in-1 Multitool Pliers Pocket Knife
Pliers, drivers, and a blade in something that lives in a pocket or glovebox.
-
$12.99
12-in-1 Credit Card Pocket Multitool

A bit more substance: lighting that changes how the campsite feels, or kitchen gear that replaces a compromise they have been living with.
-
$26.99
Tire Repair / Plug Kit Heavy Duty Emergency
Unglamorous and genuinely valuable. Trailer tires fail far from help.
-
$33.99
Folding Portable Charcoal BBQ Grill
Folds down for storage, which is the whole problem with camp grills.
-
$37.99
RV Awning LED Strip Lights 20FT 12V

Emergency Survival & First Aid Kit 142pc
A serious first aid and emergency kit. The gift nobody buys themselves.
-
$62.99

-
$358
RV Fold-Down Outdoor Table, Diamond Plate Exterior Bar Table
Folds against the rig when moving, drops down as outdoor counter space at camp.
For the one building an off-grid setup
If they talk about amp hours and state of charge, they are partway through a power build and know exactly which piece is next. Guessing wrong here is expensive and hard to return.
We carry a deep Victron Energy range along with solar panels and charge controllers. Unless you know the model they are missing, a gift card beats a guess.
For Black Series owners
If they tow a Black Series RV, we keep a separate list of upgrades and spares that fit those rigs, from OEM parts to the accessories owners add first.
No idea what they need? Send a gift card
RV owners are particular, and a part that does not fit their model is worse than no gift at all. An RV Parts Giant gift card arrives by email within minutes, never expires, carries no fees, and works on anything we sell, online or at our Upland store.

A few practical notes
- Order early in December. Larger items such as mattresses, panels and heaters ship freight and take longer than a small parcel.
- Prices change. The prices above update from the product pages, and the product page is always right.
- Not sure it fits their rig? Call 1-844-GIANT-44 (844-426-8344) or email support@rvpartsgiant.com with the make and model. We would rather answer first than process a return.
