Shawn Johnson and Andrew East are showing Us their version of gold medal-worthy gifting! The Olympic gymnastics gold medalist and former NFL star couple teamed up with Amazon to reveal their top recommendations available with Amazon’s Same-Day Delivery — and they start at just $5!

In an interview with Us, Johnson and East opened up about their holiday gift picks for the season, what it was like partnering with Amazon and how the retailer’s Same-Day Delivery service helps with last-minute gifting and makes life easier as parents of three.

“There are so many logistical concerns with having kids,” East said. “It’s nice that Amazon handles a lot of logistical problems so that parents don’t have to. But I think we do depend on Same-Day Delivery for everyday essentials or last-minute gift stuff.”

In a campaign promoting  Amazon’s Same-Day Delivery service, the Couple Things podcast hosts saw what it was like to be Amazon Flex Drivers drivers for a day. The two raced against each other to fulfill Same-Day Delivery orders in their hometown of Nashville, Tennessee.

“​​It was fun,” Johnson said. “It was humbling. We have a newfound respect. But [it was] also so cool being able to actually go into the facility, see the new hub and see how the whole flex drivers and same-day delivery works. We got to see everything from how they package all of the stuff to how they get it in the carts, to how they get it in the cars. Then being able to deliver that to kids and then a gymnastics gym was really special.”

As parents of three little ones, Johnson said that she notices herself using the Same-Day service “a lot more during the holidays,” when “life gets more hectic and chaotic.” However, the pair have also used it for last-minute emergencies, like when they hosted a Friendsgiving and forgot to buy a large dish for their sweet potato casserole.

“I was making so many things,” Johnson said. “And being able to do Same-Day Delivery for a casserole dish, which seems like a very specific item to run out and grab, was amazing.”

As self-proclaimed “most frequented” customers at Amazon, the two also curated their very own Same-Day Delivery gift picks for everyone to shop. It can be found on Shawn’s Amazon storefront, but we’ve also added some of our favorites below! It includes a few everyday necessities that you might need in a pinch, but also time sensitive gifting ideas as well.

“It’s our favorite things we have in our house,” Johnson revealed. “I feel like it’s the most-used things. But also, instead of putting like, toilet paper on there and the truly everyday household items, it’s our favorite things that we’ve ever found on Amazon that we frequently recommend to friends or gift to friends.”

In the line-up, you’ll find everything from workout essentials, home goods, toys for kids and more. With Amazon’s Same-Day delivery service, you can come home after a cold day spent outdoors to a brand-new Bedsure Heated Blanket, simply by clicking the “buy now” button on Amazon. And if your phone charger ends up lost or broken as they inevitably do, the Apple MagSafe Charger can be sent to your doorstep within a few short hours.

However, it’s great for last-second gift finds as well. The Laneige Lip Glowy Balm and the JIASUQI Open Toe Fuzzy Slippers make great stocking stuffers, while the Adidas Vl Court 3.0 sneakers and the MALACASA Casserole Dish Set are hero gifts. Of course, the family-friendly roundup includes a few fun gift finds for kids, too, like the Pinwheel Crafts Paracord Bracelet Kit and a Hasbro Gaming Jenga Classic Game.
