If your family already owns every last minute, "I'm in Miami" mug you've bought from the airport, then opt for something at the new Miami Marlins gift shop at Miami International Airport. According to Miami Today, the store is "small but merchandise-packed" and opened this past Saturday.

It's located near Gate D28 and carries caps, stuffed animals, jerseys, T-shirts, baseballs signed by players, cups, glasses, photos of players and more. After seeing how well the Miami Heat store did when it opened at the airport in 2012 (it raked in $129,000 in its first ten months!) Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos Gimenez reportedly stated there was no reason for the county not to approve, according to Miami Today.
