[iconian]

Thanks for the ideas.

Lottery tickets, my husband loves candles, magazine subscription, nuts. One of those oversized bottles of Corona (if there's a beer drinker) - I'm putting beef jerky, slim jims and a spray cheese in my little boy's stocking because he wants them all the time at the store and I refuse to buy spray cheese! LOL

You stuff like me!!

Lottery tickets, big time. My boys expect them now, as we've been doing this since they were little....like 5. Start that gambling early.

Gum, those big "movie theater size" boxes of candy are always on special at Walgreens, if you're a good "roller" - a fun pair of boxers always go into my boys stockings (they still have the "fresh squeezed" ones, from last year ) Chapstick, matchbox cars...even for the men, if they're cool cars, are always appreciated here. Those 25 cent bags of chips/cheetos. Bottle or can coozies.

And your apprehension of spray cheese appalls me. I assume you've never played "Guess what I just drew on the Ritz cracker" game, while on a long road trip, with Ritz and Spray Cheese. You're not living....

I don't think I saw these suggested yet.


- Men's/Boy's gloves (mine seems to to loose them)
- Under the car magnet to hold spare key (since my BF just locked his keys in the car yesterday, lol)
- SD cards for camera
- Flash (thumb) drives
- umbrellas (small ones)
- Beer coozies (I stole my BF's so I should buy one of these too)
- Stamps or return address labels, you can make the labels.
- BBQ Sauce/stuff or Hot sauce

That's all I can think of.

Stockings are expensive to fill! Now I know why my parents always put a few pieces of fruit in the toe/foot area!
I saw a brand name of cashews in a can on sale two weeks ago, buy 1 get 2 free, and loaded up for gifts and stockings.

Other than what's already been listed:
car window scraper
pocket packs of anything
microwave popcorn
new comb/brush
kids get a new ornament every year

Jerky was always one of my favorites.

I'm making a list of all the great ideas here!

I do lottery tickets and jelly bellys for DH with gift cards to fast food also. Im going to add hand/foot warmers and jerky.

DD is getting some hair stamper thing, a lip gloss tin. she loves hot sauce so I was going to get baby bottles of tabasco if I can find them. She also loves chocolate so I might try to find the huge kiss.

DS is easy, Legos! I will put candy in as well.

DH is getting
ear warmers ( the kind that wrap around the back of the head)
Butane lighter ( the long kind for the fireplace/grill etc)
cashews
contact solution
Chipotle gift card
candy
lottery tix

DS (16)
giant Hershey bar
Slim Jims
sours chews
liquid candy
McD's card
batteries (the only he has asked for)

DH has a chapstick issue , only likes one kind and I tend to steal them ... so Santa is bringing 10 packs of strawberry chapstick lol. He only likes the strawberry flavor.

Wow, these are awesome ideas. I have a couple to add:

Books
DVD's
CD's
Small desk calendar ( I use to get my husband Dilbert)

Socks! They are cheap and bulky. Get the 11 year old some low ankle socks from Vans. They are B1G1 1/2 off.

Giant Herhsey Candy Bar (they take up lots of room, too)

Batteries --You can buy the 20 pack of AA or AAA Duracel batteries from Staples this week and get all of the money back in Staples rewards, so they batteries are essentially free. Order on line an pick them up in the store.

Gold Coins-the $1 sac coins are common,or the ones with the Presidents-we have also put Euros -kids like the look of the bills and they can be traded in at the bank if they want. Disney dollars. Mini photo albums with great pics of them from the year. Skins for their phones. Favorite movie candy and always a chocolate santa.
