Stocking for a 17 YO DD

rigsby1967

My 17 year old DD decided she wanted a stocking this year so she went out and got the biggest she could find :rotfl:, she has main presents so i wanted the fillers cheep as possible.

So far i have thought of scratch cards, alco pop, deodarant, making a personalised chocolate bar, cake stuff (she likes baking cakes), any other ideas

I can't knit or sew so nothing involving those please

Thanks

Have a look on Play.com they have some good stocking fillers and not to expensive, don't forget Quidco!

I'd be down the poundshop buying a smaller stocking to fill, and then inserting that in the big stocking maybe with shredded paper to fill the gap!
she sounds very greedy wanting a huge stocking filled as well as her main presents
one of the supermarkets (sorry can't remember which) has little stockings about 6" tall that you could completely fill with a bar of chocolate, a lipstick, a satsuma & 3 or 4 chocolate coins!

if you wnat to fill the big stocking then a whole net of satsumas will do nicely in the toe along with a couple of those giant chocolate coins, small presents wrapped in bigger boxes, socks, scarves, that sort of bulky thing! shredded paper to fill the gaps can actually be quite nice too ...

I had told her i am not filling the stocking but she wanted one just a part of a decoration to hang up anyway so she has no idea i am filling it, I am putting some of her other presents in it as well.......undies, p.js, clothes, ect..............and she is so greedy she went out and bought me a sat nav, and a watch for christmas and something else that i have no idea so before the put downs it might be best to get a bigger picture of my very greedy daughter as all i wanted was some ideas for the filling not what you think of my DD.

I was a bit taken aback by the comment that she must be very greedy too. She sounds normal to me! And I think filling a stocking with a stocking just sounds.. well.. odd!

What about other toiletries such as shampoo, conditioner etc?

A nice notepad/diary and pen?

The usual satsuma/chocolate coins?

A voucher for you to be her passed driver if she is learning to drive?

Copy of the highway code for the same reason?

A book? Cheap cd/dvd (maybe a Christmassy one?)

Stuff from Claire's - hair styling things etc?

Make up - not sure if it's too late to order from ELF, but you could always take advantage of Boots offers this time of year instead.

Mini photo album, compact mirror, keyring - all things that have personalising potential if you have time.

Not sure what cake stuff you had in mind, but Asda has a great selection of sprinkles that aren't too expensive, and you could chuck some brightly coloured/patterned paper cake cases in as well.

An IOU for some songs on iTunes or Amazon (only around 50p-£1 each).

Warm woolly socks - cheap from market stalls but very comfy & nice and warm on Christmas Day

I completely agree too, that doesn't sound greedy at all. And I certainly wouldn't put a whole bag of satsumas in..maybe one for tradition.

It depends on her tastes of course but you can buy some really wierd small branded things which are quite cool- like Paul Smith toothbrushes, some of the Jack Wills homeware (not the stupidly expensive bits though). Quite a few of those sort of companies will have stocking filler type sections...

Why do we sometimes see negative when we don't know the situation/person. How about a cookery book and also a recipe book for her to write her favourite recipes in

What a mean reaction! I didn't think she was greedy at all. I bought my DS a stocking this year even though he's only two and doesn't really understand. It's huge but I loved the design and I'll only be filling it with a couple of things.

I'd have a look in superdrug/boots/bodycare etc for some of those mini travel sized toiletries. You can also get some nice bits from B&M and Home Bargains too.

Also, if she likes baking, Poundland have loads of the silicon stuff which is fab!
