Why this gift works

The First Aid Only 299-Piece First Aid Kit (FAO-442) packs bandages in several sizes, gauze and trauma pads, antibiotic ointment, burn cream, sting relief pads, a cold compress, an emergency blanket, moleskin, a thermometer, gloves, scissors, tweezers, pain relievers and a first aid guide into a zippered nylon case with a clear liner, per retailer listings. It weighs about a pound.

Nobody thinks to buy one until the first kitchen cut. It is a practical, inexpensive add-on to a bigger gift, and it fits a cupboard or the car.

Who is this gift for?

Great for

  • A first apartment
  • A dorm room
  • A road-trip glovebox

Think twice if

  • She has a stocked kit
  • You want a trauma kit

The catch

Much of the piece count is small adhesive bandages, the medications and ointments expire and need replacing, and it is for minor injuries, not a trauma kit.

Skip if she already keeps a stocked first aid kit.
