I have 12 year old twins - boy & girl

There are tons of girly things for me to buy to put in daughters stocking - nail polish, make-up, etc...

But, I can't seem to come up with ideas for a boy.

I do already have the toothbrush & candy! :thumbsup2
 
What does he like?

Some things going in my DS's stocking are:
candy, of course!
gaming magazine
$20 playstation network card
LeBron James mini-fathead
2 Diary of a Wimpy Kid bookmarks (favorite quotes of his)
Eviltron - creepy noise making gadget


Other things we've done in the past:
Nike socks
packs of baseball or football cards
Axe body spray
mini lego sets
movie dvd
itunes card
webkinz

How about.....

Earbuds
Gift card (fast food, game stop, donut shop?)
Beef Jerky (a must have for my 17yr old boy since he was about 10)
Those hand warmer things (I find them at the checkout at Walmart)
Wallet
Movie tickets
Laser light (BIG hit with my boys including the husband)
Chapstick
Christmas ornament
Subscription to his favorite magazine?
I usually throw in an Axe deodorant for good measure. LOL
 
I have 18YO twins - boy and girl. My son has always been the harder of the two to buy for. Food has always been good - beef jerky, power bars, nut mixes. Does he play a sport? What about a pump/needle for a ball? Trading cards? Ball cap? Ear buds for a music player? Tickets to a local sporting event?

Good luck
 

Our boys want food, the kind I won't buy normally. Beef jerky, odd flavored pringles, sunflower seeds, nuts. They also get multi-colored ink pens, giant candy, like smarties, long taffies, etc. But the new item this year is going to be duct tape.
 
My DS 13 is getting (in his stocking)

Mini Mag Lite
Work gloves
Axe body wash
A movie
toothbrush
boot socks

Not sure if that helps but there you have it!
 
My son will be 13 a week after Christmas. He is not getting all of this, but here are some ideas.

candy
itunes gc
lanyard
psp game
tool kit
mechanical pencils
sharpies
slingshot
bookmarks
flashlight
nerf darts (if he has nerf guns)
keychain
body wash or spray

pocket knife
multi-tool
light mine http://www.amazon.com/Striker-Hand-...TF8&qid=1355414438&sr=8-2&keywords=light+mine

Movie Ticket (certificate from AAA)

My middle DS is getting duck tape too but we got him a bunch of differnt colors so it's going in a big box not his stocking. :goodvibes
 
Haven't seen it mentioned yet, sorry if it has, but my boys love getting batteries.... theyre always needing them for game controllers, remotes, etc
 
I find the boys to be so much harder too!
I have a 14 year old ds and a 19 year old dd. I remember last year the day after Christmas I gave her a bag of stocking items I didn't even put out since she had way much more than my ds.
This year, I did better I think.
Does your ds play sports? My ds plays baseball for his HS and also on travel so I got him:
sports cream pain relieving rub (he pitches and catches)
espson salt to soak
always body wash for shower, body spray
tooth whitening toothpaste
Monkey Butt powder (I thought he would like the name, its powder to prevent chaffing)
Shoe shiner wipes
Releif socks
Pine Tar Soap (it's black so I thought he would like it)
Migraine Cooling patches for his head (he gets migraines and really likes these)
Clubman Talc Power
Hair Gel
Everlast Jump Rope
A stress ball

Other things too but I had the list in front of me at work for what I got on drugstore.com

Good luck!

put 11 colors on his Christmas list.. along with just a few other inexpensive things. (This is in addition to the over 60 rolls he has used in the last two years.)

He loves it and makes some amazing things. He has made both grandmas pointsettias in pots for Christmas.

The unfortunate thing is the 10,000 tiny pieces stuck to the carpet in his room, and the bottom of every sock in the house that is covered. :rotfl:

If they are into DT you might want to also invest in "non-stick" scissers and a plastic mat for them to craft on.
 
I have a 13yo and 15yo ds, here's what I can remember, besides candy:

Big Bang Theory trivia playing cards
dvd
McDonald's GC
touchscreen gloves
metal brainteasers (Cracker Barrel)
glass bottles of rootbeer and coke (actually goes on the floor under the stocking)
Maybe you touched your genitals hand sanitizer (joke for 15yo who likes to put hand sanitizer on his hands and put them on my face wet :headache:)
little salt/pepper holder for camping (for Boy Scout)
flying slingshot monkey
hot chocolate packets

I can't remember what else, it's probably mostly candy and a toothbrush.
 
My DS would love those BBT trivia playing cards! Can I ask where you found them? Thanks for the idea!

They were in Walmart in the game aisle of the toy dept., where the playing card games are like Uno. I think they were about $6. HTH.
 
As a stocking stuffer for my 16yo son, I made a dogtag (military-type) at the kiosk in the pet area.

I put his name on the first line, his nickname on the second line (I hashtagged it like on twitter, LOL), our address without the city/state, but with the zip code, and his cell phone # on the last line.

It was only $7 ($5 for the tag, $2 for the neck chain) and I know he will love it. In fact, I almost gave it to him early because I was so excited about it.
:)
 
I have8, 15 and 18 year old guys to buy for...

whoopie cushions
nano speed racers
pop rocks
silly string
