Stocking stuffers for men
Permalink Closed

I'm running low on ideas for stocking stuffers for my husband. Any ideas you can share?

Golf balls, golf accessories (gloves, tees, etc), fishing accessories. Gift cards to Home Depot or Best Buy. CD's. Socks (so exciting). New belt. Candy - my DH loves a certain type of candy that's not readily available. Cufflinks. Spices or other culinary-related items (my DH loves to cook, so exotic spices or unusual small cooking utensils are always a hit).

HTH some!

I opened mine today & here are some of the things that were in it
Cute little pink pen & a pen that writes gold & has marabou fuzz on the top
mini sharpie markers
a few pads of paper
mini bowling
Holiday coffee / tea mug from starbucks
he went to the $1 spot at Target & got me a surprisingly cute pair of earrings & a lipstick holder
craft scissors that cut in different shapes
pink camo journal
Desperate housewives, which wouldn't fit so I say it's not a SS but he says it is. Whatever, I have it, so I don't care!

But this is very detailed to me - I all those things - I'm a sucker for pens / paper for whatever reason!

ETA: i'm confused as to who needs SS gifts, so here is what I put in his
Avator history magazine (tailored to fit his interest, obviously) - but there are mags for any interest / hobby so maybe something he enjoys?
star wars pez dispensers
Magic boxers - they are little bitty & you put them in water & they grow (academy sports)
silly putty
mini etcha sketch
Star Wars watch from Burger king - $2 with purchase of value meal!
those capsules that you put in water & they turn into dinosaurs
Lots of Candy

My stocking was SO much better than his - I felt bad!

some things i got him:



  • burt's bees

  • leather gloves (both of us always lose gloves)

  • biore nose strips (we have this sick habit of pulling off the strips and staring at it)

  • umbrella

  • tolberone (he likes that chocolate)

  • socks

  • gum

  • wine

  • i took a coach business card holder that he got from his company and embossed it with his initials

  • firewood starters

  • boxers/white undershirts

  • dry-cleaning gift certificates (who really wants to spend money on dry cleaning)

  • those ear-band things that wrap around the back of your head, so on his commute his ears are warm, but it doesn't mess up his hair.

  • some cubs items. 

it's just us for christmas (because of me working) so i want him to have a ton of gifts to open.

Omg - I got all paranoid and freaked out when I saw you'd posted on this thread. I was like, "uh-oh, is she buying that guy a stocking?" Hee! And then I wondered if it was a new guy. Hmmm... any updates?

i was standing in line at Barnes & Noble getting him the "sudoka game book" and a $25 GC for my nephew when i saw it.  they had one of those rounder type deals with all kinds of little "Mini Kits"....  I think it was $7...  and also, if i remember correctly, it said "Mini Kits" on top of the rounder...


hth!
