DD is at uni 400+ miles away, so won't have much room for taking things back. We're giving her money towards driving lessons, but we always have a stocking and something under the tree. Just wondering if anyone can give me inspiration for small inexpensive stocking fillers please. She doesn't need anything for her room at home and has more than enough clothes at uni.

Voucher in a small gift box - maybe for a takeaway or cinema ticket? Or a scratch card.

Magic remedy. I got in in a stocking ages ago and have never been without it since. Useful for all sorts of things.

Amazon vouchers come in natty little boxes. So long as she is ok to use Amazon, that's the whole consumer world fitted into a stocking

What about a pack of playing cards and either a book of card games or print off some ideas for fun games- we play a game called liar and spoons which you can find instructions for online, great fun if at uni with mates and a few drinks....

Anomia game, depending on the size of the stocking! It’s a very popular game with my dc who are of similar ages, quite a compact little box.
im going to put some lush shower gel in my dds stocking, at uni she’s buying herself some very cheap stuff 😂
Spices/balsamic vinegar/chilli oil, not expensive in the grand scheme of living costs but things that are a bit of an intial expense.

Small gin/ cocktail cans are a good one for a uni student!
