    So I'm almost completely done Christmas shopping (woooo!), and all that's left is my DH's stocking.  I never know what to get for those little gifts (other than candy).

    What do you put in your SO's stocking, if you partake in that tradition?

    I am thinking of adding some toiletry stuff (mens body spray, etc). 

    He is also always looking for a good cheap pocket knife (the kind that he's not upset if its lost). 

    I also may try to get him 1 really nice pair of boxers

    Mostly little stuff like that that I know he will enjoy.

    I usually do toiletries likes shaving cream, deoderant, etc. Plus some boxers, his favorite candy, and something small-last year was a Red Sox water bottle that he kept at work.

    This is what FI’s getting in his stocking:

    • Razor Blades (FI uses the power disposable razor and the blades are like $15 per pack!)
    • Gum
    • Socks
    • Boxers
    • Candy
    • 2 Pack of toothbrushes (I purposely get manly colors since during the year I look for toothbrushes that are pink and he ends up with whatever the other color is (sometimes purple, lol))
    • A few gift cards (Generally food related ones – Starbucks, Moes, Dunkin, etc)
    • Axe body spray
    • Some office supplies (Post its, pens (he uses special pens so I ordered a few of those), mini stapler (he’s always complaining that we don’t have one)
    • Earbuds
    • iPhone 4 case
    • Some Geeky stuff from Thinkgeek.com

    We don’t exchange actual gifts so I bulk up the stocking to make up for it.

    I always put in boxers, a few scratch off lottery tickets, a couple chocolate bars/treats, chapstick, a mini-hand lotion and purrell he can keep in the car... That kind of stuff. usually his stocking ends up overflowing because the boxers take up so much room! LOL!

    You guys are giving me some excellent ideas!

    I'm adding boxers, lottery tickets, a Subway giftcard, and hockey team stuff to his stocking. :)

    Usually a Christmas ornament (Phillies or Eagles), mini-cologne which is good for traveling, chocolates, boxers, socks for work, and a stuffed animal on top.  Oh, and a 365-day-calendar for his desk at work. Usually The Office or Family Guy. :)

    Stocking for me have never really involved "real" gifts - more just goofy and/or necessary stuff.

    I'll go with a lottery ticket (tradition from my parents that I'll be continuing), candy, work socks, boxers, golf tees, some pens, deoderant, body wash, etc

    I always put in boxer, socks, and I usually throw in the latest video game he's been lusting over. :)  I've also put in giftcards in the past for stuff he really wanted like Xbox live or to places like Lowes/Home Depot.
