Frugal Stocking Stuffers

Getting a little frazzled as the clock ticks down to Christmas? Even if you have everything else done, you may not have those fun stocking stuffers bought. If your pocketbook is much lighter like mine, then you will appreciate a few ideas from this list...

A favorite photo from the past year

Hat, mittens, or scarves

A fun pen

A new mini address book with your name added

Candy from Cracker Barrel

(they have the fun old fashioned ones that are hard to find like Cherry Mash, Chick-O-Stick and Salt Water Taffy that's a foot long!)

A deck of playing cards

A makeup bag and a cosmetic product or two

Share a favorite recipe on a decorative Recipe Card!

A great shade of nail polish

For pet lovers...a box of pet treats or a pet toy

Small gardening tools 

Travel size toiletries
