That’s a lot for a stocking. I’d put those gifts under the tree. Everyone does it differently, but we’ve always done it where the smaller (meaning cheaper, not size), fun items go in the stocking and the more expensive things go under the tree. And the home equity loan means you’ve spent too much!
Hello Cathy clan! Happy Monday! I hope you all have a great day and don’t get a lump of coal in your stocking! ;-)
I agree with Lightenup. Those are all under the tree gifts. Our daughters’ stockings are usually filled with the ‘little’ things – like a toothbrush (a tradition passed down from both my parents and my in-laws), lip balm, and other handy items – along with some chocolate of course. My contribution is to individually wrap every item.
Almost finished my Christmas shopping (thank you Pandora at Disney Springs). Just a couple of more items to purchase on-line and I can relax until next year.

You can get all that stuff now on your phone

I wish my stocking had that kind of stuff. I usually just get a bunch of random useless crap and candy. I’d rather have an ipod.

Yup—those would be some pretty nice stocking stuffers.
And keep in mind that these prices were accurate in 2006—just think of what they’d be now …
HI, MOM. Hello, Clan.
