Get prepared for Christmas with these Stocking Stuffer Ideas for Men and Women!
Do you struggle with what to buy for stockings? It can be so easy to spend a lot on a stocking, so I think it’s important to try and stick to a budget. It can be hard to come up with ideas as well that aren’t just going to the dollar store and stocking up on junk. So today I wanted to share a few ideas with you for stuffing those stockings for both men and women. Some of my favorite things to receive in my stocking growing up were the most practical like socks or toiletries, things that I hated to buy for myself.

– Nail Polish– If you know me then you know my collection of nail polish is large but I’m always looking to add to it. Lately I’ve been loving all of the gel polish you can get in stores!
–Socks– I love getting socks in my stocking personally! Especially fuzzy socks, those are my go to in the winter because I always have cold feet.
–Lotion– This is a must have in the winter, am I right? Dry skin is no fun and Christmas is the perfect time to get stocked up on your favorite lotion!
-Candy- Getting some of your favorite candy is always a fun thing to buy especially if you try to avoid buying yourself candy regularly.
–Lip Balm– Can you really ever have too many of these? Not with the way they disappear so easily! EOS Lip Balm is my current favorite but there are so many great options out there.
–Earrings– I always love getting a cute new pair of earrings to wear. Such a fun way to dress up an outfit and they make great stocking stuffers!
–A Good Chick Flick– I’m always game to receive a good chick flick in my stocking. Some of my personal favorites are 13 Going on 30 and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days!
–A Book– I love to read new books and winter is a great time for that because it’s so cold out so there isn’t much fun happening outside unless you’re just a glutton for punishment. I however prefer to cozy up under a blanket and read a good book. My favorite author is Karen Kingsbury, I love her books!
-Practical Items- Shampoo and Conditioner were a staple in my stocking growing up and we appreciated getting those practical things that we didn’t like buying for ourselves. Other ideas are razor blades, body wash etc.
–Small tools– My husband is always eyeing those little sets of screwdrivers and drill bits at the home improvement stores so I know he would love to see them in his stocking.
-Gift cards- I always love getting a gift card in my stocking because you can go and buy whatever you want. That’s always so fun!
–Pocket knife– This is one thing I always appreciate when my husband has it on hand. He’s always able to open stuff for me and he loves having it handy.
–Golf balls– If the man in your life is a golfer like mine is then this is a good addition to their stocking!
–Movies– Who doesn’t love a good movie right? Picking up a good action movie or comedy that we have not seen is a great stocking stuffer.
-Gift cards- I always love getting a gift card in my stocking because you can go and buy whatever you want. That’s always so fun!
I’d love to hear what ideas you have for stocking stuffers for men or women? I am always looking for new ideas!
I love getting gift cards in my stocking! Another thing that we get from my mom every year is rechargable batteries…those things are the bomb.com. After about a year of constant use and recharging, they start to lose their ability to hold a charge, so it’s perfect that she “restocks” ours every year!
Oh those things are great! How great to have them restocked each year!
