Believe it or not, Christmas will be here before you know it. Here at SPY, we love looking for gift ideas for everyone on your holiday shopping list, and we think that picking out the best stocking stuffers is something of an art form. We’re always on the lookout for fun new stocking stuffer ideas, and we think we’ve found some awesome options for 2022.
Oh, the stocking stuffer. A Christmas tradition that is devilishly tough to do right. It’s one thing to get a gift, but an entirely different battle altogether when that gift has to be small enough to fit in a stocking. Sure, you could go with cash or a gift card for your stocking stuffers, but do you really want to be the one who phoned it in again? No, we didn’t think so.
There’s a complicated list of best practices for stuffing a stocking. So if you’re determined to find the best stocking stuffers of 2022, here are some guidelines to keep in mind:
- Don’t include anything more expensive than the main gift you’re giving the recipient
- Don’t include anything that costs less than $5, unless you’re sure it’s a quality product (think chocolate bars or hot sauce)
- Make sure everything inside a stocking is useful or enjoyable
- Include mostly edibles if giving to children, but only some edibles for adults (but is there really such a thing as too much chocolate?)
- All stocking stuffers must be small enough to actually fit inside the stocking
- Some of the gifts in a stocking should be wrapped
- When filling your family Christmas stockings, make sure each child gets similar items to avoid hurt feelings
This list might sound confusing and complicated, but as long as you’re stuffing a stocking with love, there isn’t really a wrong way to do it. And with the right stocking stuffer ideas, this might become your favorite holiday tradition.
Luckily, we’re here to help. We’ve rounded up some of our favorite Christmas gifts that almost everyone will enjoy unwrapping this holiday season — and will actually use throughout the year. So instead of tearing your hair out trying to stuff a stocking with a handful of throwaway items, check out our recommendations for the best stocking stuffers for Christmas 2022. With this year’s supply chain delays, we’re recommending you start Christmas shopping as soon as possible. And if you’re shopping for someone specific, you can also check out our guides to the best Christmas gifts for men and women, too.
