<p>Probably an annual thread around here but any ideas for Stocking Stuffers? Post what you are doing so other’s may get ideas from you. I need ideas for a couple small things for our boys, late teens/early twenties age.</p>
<p>I have:</p>
<p>razor blades
toothbrushes
candy
ear bud cord winders from Eddie Bauer
gift cards for fast food places
lip gloss for the girls</p>
<p>I need some ideas for smaller things for the boys along the lines of the lip gloss. </p>
<p>So, what are your stocking stuffers this year?</p>
<p>Burts Bees makes lip balm that guys like.
movie theatre gift card
World Market has little bottles of hot sauce
wine bottle stoppers (for the young adult)</p>
<p>How can you not have any tools on that list? They need some tools! There are plenty of smaller inexpensive tools that would fit in a stocking you could get. Make sure you only get quality tools though (don’t go to Harbor Freight!). Try roaming the tool dept at Sears with a focus on tools that say ‘Craftsman’ on them. You can also get tools at Home Depot and Lowes. Make sure you get known brand names and ideally things not made in China if possible.</p>
<p>Unlike Apples to Apples, which can be played with the entire family, including my 84yo mother, I think Cards Against Humanity appeals to a narrower demographic (to which I do not belong):</p>
<p>I second the tools idea. Kitchen tools are handy if your kids live in an apartment and cook for themselves. I’ve got D an instant read kitchen thermometer when over Thanksgiving, she asks how to tell when a roast chicken is done (turkey is too big to cook for one). Kitchen stores are also fun to browse around for small items.</p>
<p>If the stocking is rather large, Bananagrams is always good. (I think that pretty much everyone on the College Class of '13 bought that one year.)</p>
<p>I don’t think H has ever been pleased with anything I’ve ever put in his stocking. He doesn’t eat the candy, doesn’t use any of the stuff. So I’ve started buying little kitchen gadgets that I want and putting them in his stocking.</p>
<p>Fun socks. DS wanted argyle. VS underwear, travel size shampoos, lotions, etc. candy, kitchen things. We got one kid a stocking full of small Penzys spices.</p>
