Putting a stocking together for my DP and I've just realised it's all good so far!

Hit me with your awesome stocking fillers?

Have a mooch in B&M / Home Bargains. They have great stocking fillers like mini games, puzzles, joke gifts.

We don’t do gifts really. But pop some chocs and a dvd in the stocking for Xmas night together.

My thoughts too! I hadn't planned to but then he dropped into conversation about my stocking so now I have to do one. We're not really doing presents for each other this year so maybe a few stocking fillers will be nice.

Everyone gets stockings here, including a tiny one for the cats! I like doing them.

DP is getting his favourite (expensive!) chutney, fudge, chocs, a coaster, a card game, a santa stress ball, some little bits for DnD, and if I can find it, a book.

Because it's fun!

This year my husband's stocking fillers are mostly edible but there are also a couple of small fidget toys and a Christmas tree decoration.

In previous years some of the other things I've included have been;
Comb
Soap
Cufflinks
Pocket Square
Socks
Small books
Lego Yoda and seagull (if you know you know)

and plenty more that I can't remember of the top of my head!

I got one of those floating poo plugs for my son a couple of years ago and it’s quite realistic! A couple of times I’ve found it in the bottom of the bath and thought it was real for a second! 😂😂

We do stockings, instead of main presents. Set a smallish budget and have fun getting creative. I have really struggled for ideas this year though. I have socks, slippers, couple of small puzzles, chocolates/ sweets, Star Wars metal water bottle for gym, new bentos style lunch box to take to work, and a Star Wars key and key ring (key is our house key from local locksmith and bit random, but looks fab and he will love it).

Moleskine notebook
Smythson diary
Fortnums biscuits in a long thin tin
M&S Socks
Bars of Tony Chocolonely
A stojo coffee cup
Small bags of coffee beans
Probably stuff some loose celebrations in there

It’s quite a big stocking so the tin of biscuits was tactical to fill it a bit!!

Stockings are only for small children who believe in Father Christmas.

Thank god. I nearly panicked I should be doing this. Then I remembered we never do this.. it's for the kids!
