Stocking Stuffers
One of the greatest traditions of Christmas morning is running to the mantel to find your stocking  bulging with little goodies from Santa. As an adult, shopping for stocking stuffers is just as fun. This guide will lead you through finding tons of tiny treasures with which to stuff your stockings to the brim. Just remember that the sky is the limit!
Quick Hints- Don't disregard your budget! Christmas shopping is expensive, but that doesn't mean you have to overspend. Calculate how many stockings you have to fill and how much you can afford on each one so that it fits into your overall Christmas gift buying budget.
- Don't wait until the last minute! Sounds obvious, but it's easy to forget about stocking stuffers. Start shopping for Christmas gifts as early as possible, and when you happen across a small trinket that you think would work well in a particular person's stocking, get it. You'll end up with a better variety of gifts and the stocking won't appear to be thrown together last minute.
- Keep things small. No gift should be larger than six to eight inches.
- Most if not all gifts should be wrapped, except perhaps gifts that will stick up out the top of the stocking, such as a chocolate bar, candy cane, or a doll.
- Small fillers like bubble gum, candy, and rolled coins are good to use when coupled with bigger items.
- Choose both fun and practical stuffers and maybe something that really stands out as the crème de la crème.
- Make sure that you stick to age appropriate gifts.
