Favorite Things Party: Favorite Stocking Stuffer

Happy Cyber Monday to you!

Favorite Things 2015

The last Monday of November is upon us. I mean, one more month and 2015 is over. CRAZY! So today, it’s a favorite things party with Andrea and Erika. And what’s on the brain?

Stocking Stuffers!

Now that i’m old, I help mom with stockings. We have 10 stockings to stuff on Christmas. She needs the help! I tell her to get stuff that we would actually use. You know, the little things we don’t want to spend my money on. I broke it down into categories based on age and gender for you. A lot of these items are versatile. Go crazy!!!

For the younger females…

Make-Up Removing Wipes
Larabars (Or protein/snack bar of choice)
Chapstick (One of those things you don’t think of ’til you really need it.)
EOS Lip Balm
Pureology Conditioner
Crop Shirt (For $7.00, throw a work-out shirt in my stocking. why not?)

For the older females…

Fuzzy Socks with the gripper bottoms (on sale for $8.40)
Scrub Daddy (My mom’s obsessed.)
Bamboo Kitchen Utensils (this 5 piece set is $6.50. we love wooden!)
Fleece Neck Warmer ($7.20)
Odor Neutralizing Gel Beads (They smell amazing.)

For the younger males…

Disposable Razors ($6.00 – Buy one get one 50%)
Card Wallet ($9.00)
NCIS DVDs ($10.00 – or any favorite shows!)
Gaming Giftcard
Deodorant (Boys smell, so get them a 2 pack deodorant for $4.00)

For the older males…

NFL Pint Class 2-Pack (On sale for $12.60)
Cafe Mocha M&Ms (Only at Target. Men like chocolate too!)
Golfing glove (If your males are golfers, this is the perfect $5.00.)
EarBuds (If you’re like us, you always have these lost.)
Shorts (Men love to bum around in comfy shorts…and for $5.00??)
Boxers

When I think of stocking stuffers, I think of cheap and practical. We’re already buying more expensive gifts, we need cheap to fill stockings. Which is why DVDs, pieces of clothing, and a mug or two are a good idea. They take up a lot of room 😉 I got your shopping done in just one place and on sale thanks to Cyber Monday!

Hopefully you have items shipping your way this week. Christmas is coming, friends! If not, at least you got some ideas. My family would love all of these gifts if we got them in our stocking.

Merry Shopping!

Favorite Things 2015

It’s officially the last day of the summer months and to be honest i’m not mad about it. There were a lot of favorite moments this summer, so i’m just going to highlight everything because I just want to remember it all and I couldn’t pick a favorite one anyways 🙂

May

Dad took me to Boston to see our Sox play the Yanks at Fenway. BEST way to start summer.
