Practical Stocking Stuffer Idea: Dry Sprays!
I love presents. I love picking out the perfect gift for that perfect person. I love wrapping them up. I love watching the person open it.
I’m pretty sure that I’ve missed my true calling. I think I really should have been an elf working at the North Pole helping Santa.
One thing that I get stuck on though are stocking ideas. (You know, just to help Old Saint Nick out….) For us, stockings have always been filled with some fun items, but also practical things.
So what do you (Or Santa!) put in the stockings? Here is a list of practical stocking stuffer ideas to help get you started!
- Dry Spray – Have you tried these new dry sprays yet? Available at Meijer, these sprays are strong like your favorite deodorant, but go on without all the residue. Gone are the days where you have to go change your shirt because you have the dreaded deodorant stain! (Please tell me I’m not the only one that has had to do this!) These sprays last for up to 48 hours and give you a really clean feeling!
- Gas gift cards – Who doesn’t need this? Giving someone a free tank of gas is always an amazing gift!
- Gum, Chocolate and Candy – Oh my! A little something sweet goes a long way! Pick out a favorite candy, go gourmet or try something new!
- Filling the stocking of a coffee drinker? Get them a new mug!
- Phone/tablet chargers. Around our house chargers are a hot commodity! Plus, our wires are always needing to be replaced it seems. (P.S. Have you seen the 10 foot long chargers? Awesome!)
- Socks. Everyone needs new socks! Pick out practical socks or some in fun designs. Either way, you can’t go wrong!
- Gloves are something I can never have enough of. My hands are always cold it seems like. I try to keep a pair in my car as well as my purse, but it never fails, when I need a pair it seems like I don’t have any.
- Magazine or a new book.
You can find all of these items (and so many more!) at your local Meijer store.
You really need to try out the new dry sprays from major brands such as Dove, Degree and Axe. I promise, once you do, you won’t go back to traditional deodorant. There is just something about how clean it makes you feel! Not to mention, the protection it gives you as well.

I’m with you, I love all things presents 🙂 I normally put several small colognes in my hubby’s stocking, but I’ve never done a dry spray!

Great idea! For my oldest son and hubby! Both of whom are SUPER hard to buy for so these would be great!
The dry sprays sound interesting and I’ll definitely check them out. Great list of stocking stuffers!

When it comes to shopping for my mom I always get her things like this. She lives a very minimalist lifestyle and would rather get presents that are things she can use. I took this trend and now do the same for our stockings.

Those are great stocking stuffer ideas. I think I might do just that.
I would be an elf too! That is why I am loving your list. Great gift suggestions!
I always have problems wondering what to get for stockings. You have given me some ideas… but, I want to try the dry spray for myself.

I haven’t heard of dry sprays before. I always include toiletries in stockings.
These are all great ideas. The chargers really stuck with me though. We go through so many so that would be a great stocking stuffer in our house.

I haven’t seen these dry sprays yet, but I shop Meijer every Sunday. I am going to be on the lookout for them to put in my daughter’s stockings this year!

I usually leave stocking stuffers for last and I always rush throwing it together finally this year I finished it first!
I wish my children would give me a gas card. These are all great ideas.

This is a great idea for stocking stuffers because these fit perfectly in stockings. My husband loves these male body sprays.

I love those stocking stuffer ideas. We usually don’t do stocking stuffers. But thinking this year we will.

Never tried dry spays, that’s why this can be very good stocking stuffer. I like gift cards, easy and can be bought in any store.

Those are all great stocking stuffer ideas. I don’t have a meijer near me though but I’m sure I can find them elsewhere. 🙂
