One of the best parts about Christmas morning is finding all of the goodies that were left in your stocking. But, finding the best items to stuff them with can sometimes be a challenge. You want the stocking stuffers to be useful without spending too much money on these little gifts. Here are some affordable stocking stuffer ideas for him and her that anyone would love to receive on Christmas morning.
Stocking Stuffers for Her
These affordable stocking stuffers for her are gift items any girl in your life would love to find in her stoking. Most of these stocking stuffers are under $10 so you really can’t go wrong. Fuzzy socks, nail polish and lip balm are more traditional items, but beauty sponges, a water bottle and cardholder would be a nice surprise.
- Barefoot Dreams Socks
Fuzzy socks are one thing, but Barefoot Dreams socks are in a league of their own. - essie expressie Quick-Dry Nail Polish
Nail polish is a staple stocking stuffer, but what makes this one so great is how quickly it dries. - 25 oz Stainless Steel Thermos
You can never have too many water bottles. This one looks just like the popular ‘swell bottles for for a fraction of the price. - Knitted Beanie
A must for any stocking if you live in a cold climate, no questions asked! - Credit Card Holder with Keychain
I can not live without one of these on my keys. This one in particular is at such a good price and isn’t a typical stocking stuffer item making it a nice little surprise. - Pepper Spray Keychain
It’s always good to include a practical gift. This pepper spray keychain is not only useful, but it comes in super cute colors. - Rosebud Salve
Another basic gift, but you can never go wrong with a lip product. This one works wonders and really helps sooth dry and cracked lips. - Silk Scrunchie
These have been all the rage the last year or so. However, they aren’t always cheap. This one is right under $10 so it’s perfect. - TONYMOLY Sheet Masks
A face mask is great, but a set of face masks is better! Buy the set like this or buy them individually for $3 each. - Fuzzy Mittens
I know what you’re thinking. What’s so special about mittens? These mittens are so insanely soft that everyone on your lists will want a pair. - Phone Case
A lot of people like to switch up their phone case so it always makes a prefect little stocking stuffer. These ones come in so many colors so you’ll be sure to find the perfect one for whoever you are shopping for. - Airpod Case
Similar to the phone case, airpods cases are fun to switch up. Again, these come in a variety of colors and are super durable. - 6ft Charging Cable with Wall Charger
Regardless of who you are shopping for, a charging cable works for everyone. This one is great because the cord is 6ft long. - Wet Brush
If you never heard of the wet brush, you’re missing out. This brush is specifically for, you guessed it, wet hair so it’s easy to untangle hair after taking a shower. Trust me, it’s a game changer. - Beauty Sponges
Next, if you are shopping for a beauty lover, these makeup sponges are a solid go to. They need to be replaced often so getting a whole pack is amazing. - Calculator
This calculator is a great stocking stuffer idea if you are shopping for a college student or someone who works at an office. It’s super cute and affordable. - Scalp Massager
Lastly, the scalp massager. This may seem a little random but it’s great for really giving your hair and scalp a nice clean in the shower.
Stocking Stuffers for Him
When it comes to stocking stuffers for him, it can be a bit more of a challenge. Here are 17 ideas that I think any man would love to have in his stocking, and most of these are under $10 making them affordable and budget friendly.
- Under Armour Crew Socks
Fuzzy socks might not work for guys, but these Under Armour socks sure will. They come in different lengths and colors so you can get your guy what he likes best. - 25 oz Stainless Steel Thermos
Guys like water bottles too, but may not have any cute ones like this! - Carhartt Hat
Get a guy a Carhartt hat and he will love you forever. There are so many colors to choose from that you might even want to get one for yourself. - Phone Case
Guys may not be as in to switching out their phone case as girls are, but that doesn’t mean they want the same one for forever. This phone case comes in a variety of colors to choose from and is at an amazing price. - Shower Drink Holder
Silly stocking stuffers are the best, especially for guys. This shower drink holder would make any guy smile. - Jack Black Industrial Strength Hand Healer
This stocking stuffer is great because it’s something your man probably wouldn’t buy himself. - 6ft Charging Cable with Wall charger (2 pack)
Like I said, this make a great stocking stuffer no matter what guy you are shopping for. Better yet, this is a 2 pack making it the perfect gift if your man is always losing his phone charger. - Bottle Opener
This is such a fun gift for any guy. It’s especially perfect for someone in college (21+ of course), a guy who just moved into his own place or even a dad. - Leather Airpod Case
I’m obsessed with this leather airpod case and I think any guy would be too! It protects your airpods while still looking super cool. - Saucemoto Dip Clip
Another funny but practical gift. What guy wouldn’t want a dipping sauce holder for his car? Be honest, you know you want one too! - Golf Balls (12 pack)
Not every guy loves to golf, but if it does than this set of 12 golf balls is perfect. - Touchscreen Gloves
Touchscreen gloves are a must since just about everything these days is touchscreen. If your man doesn’t have one already, these ones are super affordable. - Tire Pressure Gage
If you are looking for something practical for his stocking, it doesn’t get more practical than this. - Jack Link’s Beef Jerkey 5 Pack
I don’t know what it is, but I feel like all guys like Jerkey. This 5 pack is a great deal and will last him beyond Christmas morning…maybe. - Keychain Screwdriver
