It’s a Christmas tradition in my house to open stockings first before moving on to the bigger gifts. Notorious for gifting creative stocking stuffers, my mother taught my sister and I to put thought and love into each little prize. Her stuffers were so incredible that we never even rushed to get to the presents under the tree.

Now that I’m older, I love putting together really fun, creative stockings for my friends. Here’s a list of some great ideas for yummy, budget friendly stocking stuffers!

Luna BarsI am obsessed with these things! They come in delicious flavors including S’Mores, Dulce De Leche and Iced Oatmeal Cookie, but are chock-full of vitamins and minerals. Their new recipe now includes Vitamin D, a nutrient proved to be essential for warding off the winter blues. Bars run about $1.50 each, or $18.75 for a box of 15.

Sweetriot Chocolate “Peaces” – Itty, bitty pieces of chocolate dunked raw cacao in a nicely sized, portion-controlled tin all for $19.99 for 3 tins.

Wine Wipes - Small, compact little wipes that take red wine (and other stains) off your teeth. This helps to avoid embarrassing moments under the mistletoe for just $18 for a pack of three.
