Stocking fillers - what does Santa put in your DC's stockings?

I'm desperately looking for inspiration for Santa. He is on a budget this year, so wants stuff that's relatively cheap, but fills up a stocking. Any help much appreciated!

My ds is 8 and will be getting in his stocking:

An ink pen (everyone in school has one Hmm!)
Folding ruler
Choc coins
Socks
Uno
Small Playmobil set
Bakugan (sp)
Balloon racing cars
Harry Potter 20Q (if I can fit it in)
Diablo

All items bought over the last few months and massively reduced - think it's come to about £12. I might get some vests but not sure if he can hold out until Christmas without any!

I love the nutella, mini cereal box and fizzy drink ideas. He hardly ever has nutella or anything fizzy and I've seen mini packs of nutella recently but will have to spend a bit of time trying to remember where it was. He tucks into a bowl full of dry cereal at the weekends when he gets up at least an hour before me so he can watch tv in peace Grin so the mini boxes might keep him entertained so I can lie in.

Morrisons sell the mini Nutellas, in their pick & mix mini jams section!

Thanks. I might have to make a special trip there and buy a selection Grin!

Always

Choc coins
Sugar mouse
Candy cane
Jelly lollies in Xmas shapes

Then, lip balm, deoderant, flannels, bath toiletries, little purses/wallets...and any other small thing that has taken my notice. This year I found a tiny clock which is set in a Matchbox-sized pewter VW Beetle.

bubble bath.
tooth brush and tooth paste ( both spiderman decorated).
finger skate board and stickers to decorate.
chocolate coins.
book of some sort.
2 lego mini kits ( free with a newspaper the other month).
Satsuma.

That will probably fill it up, I only use a modest size sock.
