Title: Stocking Fillers?
Post by: libby1 on November 11, 2014, 03:25:05 PM
Hi Girls

Any ideas on cheap stocking fillers? And I don't mean legs  ;D

Every year I buy lots of little toys etc to put in my boys (age 9 and 18) stockings, it ends up to be quite expensive and a bit of a waste of money  :-\

Any ideas?

iTunes gift card for the older one. I usually get the £15 one when its on offer for £12. If I buy chocolate I try to get something different that they wouldn't normally buy. Depends how much you want to spend on each item really.

brusells + chocolate =  :-*

Can't help - sorry.   Presents for Men/Women catalogues are out now - might get some ideas there?  Or old fashioned sweeties, i.e. gob stoppers, black/jacks/liquicise all sorts etc.?

Bit Old fashioned but ..... Autograph Book each ...............you can get them on the internet still from one pound odd and upwards.

In my old autograph book is the only pieces of handwriting i have left from grandparents - can be fun to give the book to friends and then see what they write or draw - i had quite a few artistic friends and some who ruined a page !

I always put chocolate in, an autograph book sounds like a good idea. I like old fashioned things  ;D

Charity shops may well have small items too.
