It’s always nice to get a head start on holiday shopping. I definitely prefer to be home baking cookies and wearing slippers than battling traffic and standing in long lines.
Throughout the year, I post little items on my blog that would make great Stocking Stuffers. They are usually $5 or less and almost always ship for Free. Pick up a few here and there, and before you know it, you’ll be all set! I’ve also been known to make the occasional raid on my stocking stuffer stash when I need a last minute gift. That box has saved me more than once!
