101 Useful Stocking Stuffer Ideas #GiftGuide

Every year, the last items I go out and buy are the stocking stuffers. When my kids were little, I would buy candy, toy accessories and batteries for new toys. As they get older, I try to buy useful stocking stuffers.

To help you out, I’ve come up with a list of 101 useful stocking stuffer ideas.

The price range varies from a few dollars to over one hundred dollars. I realize that some may be over the top, but I wanted to be sure to include something for everyone.  Some of these ideas may trigger new ideas for you.

And….sometimes it’s fun to put the big present in the stocking!

Many of the ideas are linked. All links are affiliate links.
