When we look back at our childhood Christmases, we always remember the big presents we get. But part of the experience is the joy of the unknown – opening those mysterious presents where we can’t possibly guess what they are. Those stocking fillers go a long way towards making the day special, and they’re a tradition that’s been going on for generations.
Typically, stocking fillers are small, inexpensive treats that help to bulk up the stocking, sack or pillowcase. So we’ve put everything that falls into that category in one place, so you can pick and mix the ones you want. We’ve got small toys for kids of all ages, plus gadgets and tools that anyone can enjoy. There are also plenty of toiletries and aromatic products in here, which might perhaps appeal to the older children in your life.
You’ll also find that timeless stocking filler – sweets, biscuits and chocolate – in abundance. There’s no limit to the amount you’ll get through, so it’s best to stock up right away. If you accidentally buy a bit too much and have to eat it yourself, we’ll forgive you.
Among our stocking fillers, you’ll also find plenty of quirky and retro items, too. We love the classic gifts from yesteryear, and the ones that have stood the test of time will make it into our range. From toys and games to tricks and jokes, there will be something amusing for the person you’re gifting, and it’ll be just that little bit unusual, for added interest.
As we’re a homewares store 365 days a year, you can expect plenty of our smaller items to appear here too. They’re great for older kids, particularly students, or those who love getting their hands covered in flour in the kitchen. Bedroom and bathroom gadgets will always be popular gifts, and if you know someone who loves growing plants and gardening, we’ve got plenty of inexpensive green-fingered gifts you can wrap up and give them alongside their main present.
The best stocking fillers are the ones that have a particular resonance for the person you’re giving it to. Whether it’s something meaningful to do with your family relationship or friendship, or perhaps a little in-joke or a cheeky message, take a look through these token gifts and you’re sure to find something that will put a smile on their face – or maybe a little tear in their eye (the good type, of course).
