Stockings for late teens

[Vanillapod]

I don’t want to stop the stocking thing as DS loves it but…
What on Earth can I fill it with?!
Consumables only really ideally as he doesn’t need (snd I don’t want) ‘stuff’
Socks are usually a good and bulky option but I’ve only recently replaced all of those 🤦🏼

I have got him a Fabi Dabi Doll actually which is ‘stuff’ but the rest needs to be non clutter!

Help! 😆
Maybe each gift can be like pass the parcel!

I still do one for ds and he is 21 and doesn’t live at home anymore 😆
Little things I got him were an espresso cup and saucer from DLP, green tea and fruit tea, decent toiletries (rather than the normal lynx and stuff)
Vegan chocolate/ sweets and the obligatory Christmas socks.
Might actually get him a hot water bottle as his apartment in Manchester only has a couple of smallish radiators.
Also saw a cool mobile phone projector on firebox but as he has a massive telly I think it’ll be redundant!

Costa/ starbucks/ Greggs voucher goes down well usually

My teens get a lot of practical items I’d have to buy anyway
Razor & shaving gel
Charger wires/power bank
Gloves
Cleaning putty
Screen wipes
Deodorant/body spray
Pens
A tube of Pringles & a bottle of their favourite soft drink

So far Ds also has a mini torch, credit card tool,key ring & lanyard, stress ball

I’ll add a couple of fun/ jokey items and they always get the traditional Xmas socks,new toothbrush,a choc orange & choc coins

I do always try and put things in that I’d buy anyway but it’s nice to have something a bit different. He does love a bath bomb so I’ve got one of those. Maybe I’ll find some nice
bubble Bath (not the usual radox!)
A gift card is a good shout too. He’s often in Nando’s so I’ll grab that when I’m next in Sainsbury’s.

My girls are 10&12 and I’ve found stockings harder this year as they have ‘stuff’ and don’t need or have space for any more of it. I ended up getting them hair products (better than we normally buy) and nail polish (we share a huge collection of different colours) and some lip balm. It’s a small stocking so I don’t think anything else would fit now and that lot was £40ish so I’m done with the stockings!

My boys are 21 and 17. They will get deodorant and aftershave, pocket quiz game each cos they like playing them with their friends, chocolate oranges, crazy boxers from Oddballs, a book each by their interests (eldest getting funny stories about Rugby, youngest will get something computing/ gaming related and some sort of gadget
