Budget Friendly Gift Guide Series: Stocking Stuffers

We are continuing the Budget Friendly Gift Guide Series today!  Everything seen is under $50, and today’s gifts are the best stocking stuffers.  A lot of these are actually things that I have, or some things I have purchased for stocking stuffers in the past.  Let’s move on to this gift guide!  There are multiple categories for all different types of people this gift giving season.

BEAUTY

Straightener

This straightener is perfect for traveling, or if you are at the office and you don’t want to bring your regular straightener, you have a mini one.  It’s super small, and is great for little touch ups, or if you’re like me and have thin hair, it actually works for thin hair.

Clinique Balm

I SWEAR BY THIS BALM.  I bought it in the travel size (which is more than enough if you don’t wear too much makeup) when I went to Poland.  It was great.  It felt nice on my face when I was taking off my makeup, and it wasn’t as harsh as a makeup wipe, although the Neutrogena wipes seen in the gift guide are the only ones I will use.  However, if I’m taking off a little bit of eye makeup I will totally use the balm because it helps get that makeup off without it being harsh.

Makeup Wipes

I only like to use these wipes.  They are the least harsh wipes I’ve used.  They also get out a lot of makeup.  I usually get the fragrance free ones.

Invisibobble in Pink and Black

Y’all, these are life changing!  They are a little pricey for a small box of 3 BUT, I’ve been using the same one for over 6 months now and it hasn’t stretched out, nor has it broken.  I thought these were only for thick haired gals, but it works for my thin hair as well.  I’ve noticed less hair falling out at the end of the day when I take my hair tie (or in this case invisibobble) out.  I’ve read a lot about these and have also asked my hair dresser if these are in fact better for your hair than regular hair ties and she said yes, this is all she uses now.

HEALTH

Pepto Liquid

Ok, so I’m one of those people who eat way too much over the holidays and I usually need pepto bismol no matter how disgusting it is haha.  You’ll never know when you might need some pepto, especially if you have people traveling via car to you for the holidays!

Pepto Tablets

When traveling, I personally like to have the tablets because they are less messy, but I did notice that the liquid is more effective.

Dayquil Nyquil Liquid

A lot of people are getting sick or are sick, and this set is a lifesaver for a lot of people.  It was for me last year.  I was sick from mid December to mid January.

Dayquil Nyquil Tablets

Just like the pepto tablets, the day/nyquil tablets are less messy when you are traveling.

ORNAMENTS

Ballerina

My mom started this tradition of getting ballerina’s for me every year.  When I was younger, she had (now she passed them onto me) these 2 ballerina ornaments that were older than me and she knew they were my favorite.  When I got older and left home, she gave me these two ballerina’s for my tree.  Ever since I was younger she has been buying me ballerina’s.

Animal Ornaments

Ok, so y’all should know by now that I LOVE animals, so here are a few ornaments for that animal lover in your life.

Beagle // Cat // Rabbit // Maltese // Pug // Bulldog

FOR HER

Popsocket

I have a different type of popsocket on my phone, it’s a metal ring, BUT, I honestly really want this particular one haha.

Lipsmacker

Blast from the past, my 90’s self is living!

Socks/Slippers

I know I’ve talked about slippers a lot lately, but some of these are perfect for stocking stuffers because they are slipper socks.  Also, I REALLY want the Simba slipper socks haha.

Llama Socks // Fox Socks // Unicorn Slipper Socks // Simba Slipper Socks // Reindeer Slipper Socks

FOR HIM

NES Classic Wireless Controller

This is perfect for that gamer in your life.  Or, it could also be perfect for dad.  It’s thanks to my dad that I know what Super Nintendo is, along with the cartridges that you have to blow into to “fix.”

Cologne

Do you have a guy in your life that likes to have different colognes?  I know this would be perfect for my uncle, because he has every single cologne out there haha.  He has one in each car, in each bathroom, and at work.

Hair Kit

Some guys (except my fiance) love to take care of their hair, so here is a fun kit for them!

Morning Handsome Mug

This would be perfect for your SO.  Whether they drink coffee or tea.

Chewbacca Slipper Socks

This would make a great gift for that Star Wars lover in your life.

Shaving Razor

I mean, you can never have enough razors.  I feel like I’m always going through them haha.

    These are great gift ideas. I just picked up some trial size and minis for my girls yesterday. Get the Popsocket. I love mine…and then I got the clip to go in the car. It makes talking on the speaker so much easier.
