Ideas for men's stockings(not the wearing kind!)

  • Morning all!!

    Thanks so much for contributing ideas :)

    I had a couple of ideas and ordered a few things which I thought I'd share with you.

    My partner is desperate to use our shed (believing he will make it his workshop!) Although in truth it will end up being filled with junk :) So I found a couple of books on Amazon which are called 101 things to do in a shed - only cost about £3 so nice cheap stocking filler.

    Also based on the idea of getting beers/cider I found something called a fridge monkey - its basically a rubber matt with ridges which allows you to stack up your drinks in the fridge without the risk of them falling down. It's from Amazon (I seem to buy a lot from here!!) and costs about £5.

    I think I am definitely going to buy him a diary for work and a diary for himself as he is always forgetting things.

    Some great ideas above, might be 'borrowing' a couple :)

    Some bits I've put in my OH stocking for this/past years:
    Socks (Simpsons, Mr Men etc)
    Beer glass
    Bottle opener
    Lego minifigures
    Wind up toys
    Wallet (he only likes the cheap velcro type)
    Sweets/chocs - toblerone!
    Little fact/quiz books
    Funky pens
    Mug
    Drinks coasters

    I found a little Guinness snow globe type thing on the debenhams site the other day but it seems to have disappeared

    (You might be able to tell that OH is just a big kid who likes beer :rotfl:)
  • Maybe a DVD, CD, or music download if he has an mp3 or i-pod?

    I like the scratch card idea too.

    Also, maybe voucher for fav rest/cinema/gig/sports venue etc
