help. i need ideas for stocking fillers

[csa]

for mil and dil. inexpensive stuff and preferably those that can bulk up the stocking. have about £15 to spend on each. any ideas will be most appreciated as i have only this lunchtime to tear around the shops to buy them

A book or two ? If you buy in Tesco or supermarket they are much cheaper. Or WH smiths usually have buy 2 get one free.

Nice scented candles ?

Chocolates ?

15 pounds for stocking fillers - goodness I haven't spend that on PIL, BIL and SIL present put together - I must be tight.

Lots of chocolate?

Chocolates, little bottles of wine or beer, little something from the body shop, favourite magazine, lottery ticket inside a card.

ooo.... lots of good ideas so far. keep them coming

bobbybobbobbingalong, that's because there are 9 people contributing to the stocking budget

Feel better now - I'll just find another 8 people. But why are you doing all the shopping if you only have a lunch hour - what are the other 8 doing?

Hand cream, lip balm. Miniature whiskey. Pens. Pack of playing cards. Satsuma.

bubble bath, notelets, desk diary/calendar thingy, cuddly toy

btw, like the lottery ticket idea!

Nail varnish, posh hot chocolate sachets, disposable camera, special tree decoration to hang on the tree, posh box of tissues (well it is the cold season!), Resolve sachets, posh dried fruit and nut assortment.

ooo... i like the posh hot chocolate sachets and posh dried fruit and nut assortment ideas.

any more anyone?

Do adults get stockings? I dont.

not usually but pil do cater for the lot of us (18 this year!) every year for the best part of a week and a few years ago, we thought it would be nice if santa pays them a visit.

Lottery ticket idea came from receiving a tenner's worth as an engagement present from a friend. The card read, 'Tacky, eh? But not if you win'.

we also have adult stockings at my Mum's.

This year I have given various toiletries / a wind up cockroach for dad, kids have made fudge which they put inside home made crackers, DH ahs bought whoopee cushions.

But ours are deliberately joket stockings.

legs???

hehehehehehhe, sorry am horrible. am also completely unsure what to get.

I always get a stocking, and so does dp, one of my favourite parts of the day.

(you only get one if you still believe in FC )

Her - Costume jewellery, scarf
Him - Socks Cufflinks tie pin,scarf

Diary, pen, memo block, smellies, key ring M& S had some good gadget type things 3 for 2 !

thanks all. here's what i got from the shops.

mil - sudoku book, hand cream, dried fruit & nut selection, liverpool fc mouse mat to go with some bath stuff that sil has already bought. will probably get the ladies in lavender dvd to round it all up.

dil - sudoku book (thought they could have a competition ), bar of choc, little book about british servicemen and again to go with bath stuff already bought by sil. the rest of the budget i'll pass on to sil. maybe a nice pair of walking socks.

right, better get some work done this afternoon

and ha ha kateandfelicity. surely you mean feet?
