Last minute stocking stuffer ideas for the whole family
I've compiled an extensive list of last minute stocking stuffer ideas for the whole family. Many of these items for children can be found at your local drugstore or grocery store. No matter how hard you plan to have all your presents purchased and wrapped ahead of time, there seems always to be one last minute mad dash for a forgotten present, a gift that hasn't arrived in time, or you suddenly see notice flat and lifeless your stockings are going to seem. Looking for items to fill isn't hard, except for when you're pressed for time. Suddenly all those great ideas elude you. Here's a list that should help you and your loved one through the years. Print it out and put it somewhere safe! Furthermore, if you have any great ideas, I would love to know them!
