Pin image for 175 Stocking Stuffers Under $20 for Everyone on Your Gift List. Gifts for adults, women, men, teens, kids, babies & toddlers.

‘Tis the season of joy and happiness. My grandma used to hang the stockings on December 1st. Then, when we would go out for dinner or something, she would be the last one out of the house. She would stick a small stockings stuffer in the stocking for us. She used to say Santa Claus has stopped by to see if we were being good. It was so much fun to get those little gifts! It got to the point we would check our stocking several times a day to see if Santa had stopped by.

This post is chock-full of stocking stuffers under $20.

Stocking Stuffers for Adults

• Travel Cord Organizer

• Tea sampler: Taylors of Harrogate Classic or Twinings 48-Count Variety.

• Hot cocoa: Ghirardelli Hot Cocoa, Premium Indulgence or Godiva Hot Cocoa.

• Coffee sampler: La Crema 6-piece sampler or Coffee Master Around the World Variety.

• Cookies. My favorites are: Grandma’s Variety Pack of 30 (stick one in everyone’s stocking) and Barnett’s Gourmet Chocolate Biscotti Favors Gift Box Sample.

• Popcorn (under $20). My favorite is the “Popcornopolis Popcorn 12 Cone Sampler“. Since it’s already divided into 12 samples, you can pop something in everyone’s stocking.

• Homemade Christmas Pretzel Kisses. Quick, easy, but really cute. Just put in a cute bag and add a gift tag (can use Free Printable Christmas Gift Tags if you want).

• Ghirardelli! Who doesn’t love chocolate? I normally buy one of the larger packs and then break it down for stocking stuffers for two or three different people. The normal “bags” come with 40 pieces, more than enough for multiple different people in their stockings!

• Nuts. My favorites are: Broadway Baskets and Jaybee’s Nuts Gift.

• Pretzels. My favorite is Pretzel Plate Sampler.

• Candy. My favorites are: Tara’s Handcrafted Sea Salt Caramels, Tara’s Caramel Apple, and Krispy Kreme Jelly Beans.

• A meaningful picture, framed. To often we snap pics, store them online, and never have them around the house. This works for men and women. My father-in-law loves pictures of him and his Corvette framed.

• Gift cards. I used to hate giving gift cards. Until I started receiving some myself and realized how amazing they are! Make sure to match the card to the user’s interests.

• Scratch-off lottery tickets.

• Car air freshener. I’m particularly fond of the Yankee Car Air Fresheners.

• Back Scratcher. Because sometimes your favorite back scratcher (someone you love) isn’t available.
