The holy grail of men's stocking fillers...

[Jedbartletforpresident]

I need stocking filler ideas for DH which MUST be:

• NOT food or drink related
• small in size
• cheap (preferably under £5)

I already have a new camelbak and book which will take up quite a bit of space hence the need for small items.

Planning on getting:

• a nice bookmark
• a loose change dish (struggling with this - don't want ceramic, would prefer wooden or leather/fake leather but struggling to find something cheap and small enough)
• a men's folding shopping bag for him to keep in his car. (Have no idea if this exists)

Mini brain teasers. Tiger usually have some good ones. If not Amazon.

Novelty tie.
Stress ball
Novelty Christmas hat
Racing Santa, Grandma etc
Grow me - Hot stuff - Christmas Tree - Snowman - Sprouts -
Novelty socks
Robot man soap
Cleaning putty
Extendable Back scratcher
Novelty money box

This is 6.50nas trial size but might be nice and soothing if his skin is irritated with the radiotherapy. I also recommend reposemwhich is aromatherapy cream from templemspa and settles skin after irritation.

Also a molton brown mini or loccitane

Loving all these chocolate orange substitute ideas! I feel like I could fill the stocking with small round things now!

What a wonderful thread. The mumsnet ladies have come up with some great ideas — which I’m totally stealing—

Have a look at prezzybox Plenty of fun ideas on there I think.
( I particularly like the sandalsocks

I've just ordered an extending magnet with LED light

If your DH likes superheroes, I was in Menkind earlier today and they had a little torch that instead of a normal light it projected the bat signal :) It had a clip that could attach to a keyring etc.

How about a magniband, it is a band that goes around your phone and is a magnifying lens for camera, you can get it on Amazon for around £5 in different colours

This orange shaped pill box is available on amazon...

Otherwise maybe an orange stress ball or a pair of orange socks rolled into a ball?

Sorry he's been unwell, I really hope he's getting better every day.
