It's the holiday season and time to buy gifts for those special people in your life. I like getting and buying a stocking stuffer. They are neat little gifts, inexpensive, and most times very useful. So what kind of stocking stuffers do you buy? Here are a few last minute ideas if your still looking... 1. A Desktop Mug Warmer- to heat up your coffee or tea. 2. Fancy Chocolate- an example could be a Chocolate Toffee Coffee Bar. 3. Christmas Cookie Cutters/Snowflake Molds. 4. Bird Feeder Guides- Introduction guide to Feeders, Feeds & Common Backyard Birds is perfect for bird enthusiasts. 5. Kleenex Ultra Soft Facial Tissues- travel packs will fit perfectly into a stocking. 6. Burt's Bees 100% Natural Hand Salve. 7. Dental flossers- got to keep those gums healthy. 8. Liquor Samplers- a little Bailey's or Kahlua goes a long way on a chilly day. Now its your turn... What are your favorite stuffer items to buy? Source- suggestions from Reader's Digest

I was thinking more along the lines of Debbie Harry's legs.

We don't buy gifts anymore. Most of the family has passed away except for cousins; and my husband and I don't exchange gifts anymore. I remember getting an orange and some nuts in my stocking when I was young plus some little gifts.

We used to put chocolates and candies in the Christmas socks, the rest wrapped under the tree.

I remember my brother buying Ornament keepsakes (from Hallmark) for my Mom which makes for a nice stuffer. Hard to resist chocolate

@dgobucks226 I bought two boxes of delicious Belgian chocolates, now I can say that Belgian chocolates are as good (may be better) than Swiss chocolates.

@LadyDuck Wow! I can't believe the Swiss chocolates could be topped? Having Switzerland's Famous Lindt Chocolate is one heavenly treat

Matchbox cars, a mini face-powder compact, and various sizes of batteries. Mom always stuffed the toe, with a Florida orange:)

Yes, the orange and also walnuts at the bottom and you knew you were finished. Those matchbox cars were popular stuffers! Another good stuffer is a Hallmark Keepsake Ornament. see photo

My parents always put oranges and apples along with walnuts in our stockings. My son asked for a car for Christmas a couple of years ago. The Hot Wheels Porche fits perfectly.

Those are cool little gifts. A good item for kids is a book of animal stickers. It contains 1,000 stickers! I remember getting candy kisses. Another useful stocking stuffer for an Adult is Assured Instant Hand Sanitizer in a 3-pack.
