Stocking presents for teenage boys 18 & 16

[SentToTheSynByn]

Each year I find it increasingly difficult to find presents for the stockings. However they love them, and I love giving them so the search continues.

Successes in the past have been toiletries, tshirt, stationery, bike gadgets, key rings, books, gloves, pizza wheel, hot sauce. Always include a pair of Christmas socks and chocolate coins.

So far on the list this year is a scratch card.

Would anyone like to add to the list please?

Shamelessly placemarking for a very awkward 16yr old

Lush sell credit card size wash things. You tear off a bit and use it in The shower/to wash.
Watch out for gift cards as I’ve found my teens tended to lose them/forget to use them and you run out of time to use them after 1-2 years for many.
Game or Xbox vouchers would maybe be an exception- or ones you can load online onto an account.
Skipping rope, mini weights, wrist strengthen ball thing, grippy finger strengthener, earbuds, travel size smellies, mini alcohol, sunglasses.

Earphones (always losing them!)
Lynx
Not sure if this is a stocking present but he LOVES designer boxers
Teeth whitening strips
Charcoal toothpaste
Tweezers
iPhone splitter so he can charge and use headphones
Sweets
Hot chocolate sachets
Can of American Soda (the Works sell them instore - Fanta Grape etc)
Roll of Pringles
Socks
USB Stick
Sheet masks
Phone charger
Torch
Screw drivers

I have 2ds’s 16 and almost 12
Things I’ve put in their stockings in the past have been hot choc sachets - 4 for £1 in Tesco's, puncture repair kit, bottle of cider, bottle of pop, toblerone, wallet, underwear and socks, maltesers/crunchie/twix chocolate spread in a jar, jelly belly beans, table tennis balls, mini tools, magazine.
Love this thread for new ideas!

I brought my two older boys Netflix voucher last year which they loved and also I buy those sweets bamboozled I think they’re called where you eat one and either it’s nice or nasty (think earwax flavour or honey) also phone cases are good stocking gifts !

Ohhhh also I buy them a can of American drink like cherry Dr Pepper or American sweets and they are usually popular !

DS (16) adds Worcester Sauce to everything so he is getting a bottle of that in his stocking, along with a jar of that biscuit flavoured spread.
he will also get socks and boxers, toiletries, guitar picks and then stuff like a mini-torch, odeon/Costa voucher, chocolate orange, Lush bath bomb....
