Decent stocking fillers for teens

10 replies

CamdenLurker · 10/11/2020 15:53

I'm very nearly done with buying Christmas gifts, just need a few stocking fillers for my 4 dc DD's 13 and 15, DS's 17 and 23.

I don't want to buy rubbish or stuff that won't get used, the boys are easier as I can put mostly edible stuff in, but the girls are trickier.

So far for dd1 I have:

Socks
Mini hairbrush
Dock & bay hair wrap
Candy kittens sweets
Eleanor and Park book

Dd2

Stick on nails
Candy kittens
Mini hairbrush
Face halo make up remover

Ds1

Fender T-shirt
Shaving cream
Reeses mini cups

Ds2

Socks
Shower gel
Wireless charger

They will all have the obligatory chocolate coins.

I just need some ideas so I can bulk it out, but with decent stuff, I'd rather pay £5 for one thing that £1 each for 5 things.

What are you buying your teens and older for stocking fillers?

My best "bulk out" items this year are:
Smellies - body spray, fancy shower gel, nice shampoo
Favourite noodles
Mug cake sachets
Moisturiser
Razor and shave cream (posher stuff than normal Grin)
Pens & notepads
Chocs/snacks/Pringles

I try and look for things DD12 will use so they're not hanging around all year. She's at the stage where nice smellies are a plus so this is generally pretty easy and she has no brand loyalty! I tend to buy things I'd like and are on good offers Grin

I also buy underwear for her stocking and wrap each item separately!

FippertyGibbett · 12/11/2020 07:41
