Please help! I'm stuck. Need ideas to fill my 26 yr old hubbies's Christmas stocking!
So far I have:
Razor blades ( things he needs, trying to be MS style :money: )
Furry handcuffs
Lush gift set
Chocolate coins
Going to get a lotto ticket or Christmas scratch card too.
But that's it. And it's a big stocking!
Any ideas very welcome. Thank you!:D

Does he play golf ? You could put some tees in. What about a magazine or book ? Try somewhere like Aldi, I got some great multi-tool gifts, you know the type of thing, penknife, scissors, screwdriver etc. all in one.
Aldi currently have a skiing promotion (or they did last week) and have thermal hats and gloves.
Also, if he likes a drink, what about a small bottle of spirits, or can of beer.You're only young once, but you can be immature forever0 -
cuddly toy?
sexy underwear for you - that he'll get the benefit of? (and than you get to choose what YOU'd like)

Batteries
Dull, but oh so useful

little matchbox car, shampoo (my OH keeps pinching mine!), shaving gel, squirty cream (to go with the handcuffs!
) beer glass, little polystyrene planes and other kids toys, wooden puzzles, bottle opener/corkscrew

ooh some good ideas here I might nick the car and plane idea for my hubby!
Some more ideas I've used before / will be using this year:
Chocolates of any description (this year it is jack daniels choccies and good old thorntons)
Undies / Socks (tradition in our house always get socks and undies in stockings!)
Keyring
Tangerine (well it is a christmas stocking!)
Little desk puzzles
Small paperback books
Pocket diary
Oooh just thought of one I got yesterday - armband holder for an MP3 player ...Tescos £2.46 (the iPod ones are about 20 quid!!)
Our local pound shop has loads of boysy stuff like skipping ropes (boysy adult ones not kids), wrist/ankle weights / drinks bottles etc if he's into keep fit. Or they had loads of fishing gear if he's into fishing.
Bottle opener
Aftershave / deodorant / shampoo / etc.0 -

i think its a case of trying to strike a balance between fun and practical, without letting your spending get out of hand!know thyselfNid wy'n gofyn bywyd moethus...0
