Stocking Gifts for Teenage Boys

Spendless

2 years ago I started this thread for us to all share ideas, because I know this age range is hard to think of things for

I bumped it last year but for this year I thought I'd start a nice new shiny thread, as otherwise it's long to read and trends, availability and prices all change.

So far for my now 14 yo son (almost 15 at Christmas) I have got some mystical fire sachets left as he still loves bonfires.

I know key-rings get mentioned a lot, but if any of you have teens like mine who lose everything, what I got the family is coloured keys, so they could stop losing theirs and then claiming I had put theirs on my key ring (hubby was actually the worst offender for claiming this!!) This sort of idea,

but DD has a pink leopoard print, son has a bonfire and husbands is black with a slogan on. I got mine from Timpsons.

Looking forward to reading (and pinching!) other peoples ideas.

How about most things in Hawkins Bazaar? Executive type toys, toilet humour toys, rude toys.

Toiletries aimed at that age.

T-shirts

mandco

power bank - ideal for charging phones ect on the go
cashstash keyring
bike repair kit - if they cycle/bmx
calendar
mini nerf gun (you're never to old)

with boys I find it really helps if they have any hobbies/interests as you can usually find lots of related stuff. also fav football/sports team/tv shows can be a good source for ideas

clarryd

How about:

after shave lotion (cheap one)
wallet
toblerone
socks
pens
small box chocolates (very mini size) £1
hair gels, putty
promise cards - little bit of effort needed - (eg: I promise not to moan about you not cleaning your room for a week x 1 card - I promise not to moan about you bringing your clothes down for washing x 1 card etc)

My husband did this for me on valentines and I had things like, I promise to run you a bath x 1 time, I promise to make you a cup of tea x 2 times, I promise to give you a foot message x 1. I just handed him a card when I wanted a cup of tea etc. He couldn't say no because it was a present.

The person who replied before you was a spammer. Now they've been removed, your post is now number 4 (it was no5 before).

Hope that helps x

Luckystar

I always put headphones in my teenage sons stocking, argos have these for £5 at the moment with good reviews

A pot noodle is always a staple stocking filler too:)

Terrys chocolate orange. choc coins. viz annual. deodorant.

Just saw in Superdrug last night that they had nets of chocolate Brussels sprouts in the 2 for £1 with the chocolate coins and mini Santas. Little round chocolates wrapped in foil of a green leafy design. Good for a lad who isn't keen on his sprouts!
