$5 Stocking Stuffers for Men

[mrsemilys]

I need a few stocking stuffer ideas for DH and my dad. I would prefer they are around $5 but would spend more for something really good.

I'm already getting DH banjo strings and candy but I can't think of anything else. All I can come up with for my dad is a pocket knife thingy but I don't wanna do that....

Small bottles of booze.
Gum.
Beer bottle opener.
Nice Pens.
Chapstick.
Deodorant.
Bars of man soap (like the Dove Men+ Care).
Gift cards.
Single pot coffees.
Whiskey Stones.

Different men would like different things. I filled my Dad's stocking with
Hand warmers (He spend's a lot of time outside with the grand kids).
Travel mug
Warm Socks
Chapstick
King Sized Snickers
Jar of Pistachios
Tic Tacs
Sudoku Book
Crossword Puzzle Book
James Patterson's newest paperback
and an orange on top (Every stocking in the family has an orange on top).

Mine always wants new fingernail and tonenail clippers. Whatever, dude.

It's more than $5, but still not a ton. TJMaxx had a nice assortment of nice wallets in the $10-15 range

Where are these $5???

They're not $5 (they're $15-$20) but the OP did say if the item was "good" she'd spend more, so I threw that in.

Great ideas!! Thanks

Gum/Mints - Attach a flirty note that promises a kiss to go along with the mints!
Scratch Off Lotto Tickets - Make sure to call dibs on a small gift for a big win.

Gadget Cord Organizers - Cord clips, cord wraps, and cable twisters may be over the $5.00 mark, but are well worth the investment if your hubby's many cords are driving you insane.

$5.00 Gift Cards - Grab a few different cards for local convenience stores and places like Dunkin' Donuts. Perfect to grab a quick snack or coffee on the way to work.

Ear Buds - Check out places like Ross, TJMaxx and Marshall's for name brand ear buds at half the cost.

Snacks - Candy bars, Cliff Bars, small bags of nuts, and the like.

Shot Glass - For after the kids are tucked into bed!

Toiletries - Axe body spray, after shave, shaving cream and body wash in manly scents are always a good idea.

Razors - Scan the men's section at stores like TJMaxx and Marshall's for inexpensive compact facial hair trimmers.

Magazines - Pick up the latest copy of Men's Health, Men's Fitness, Maxim, Mental Floss, etc, for some light reading.
