Mobile Stocking Stuffers
Every year, I struggle to find great stocking stuffers for Ponzi. My fiancee is difficult to shop for, despite what she claims. It’s frustrating, but every year I manage to pull it off without showering her in chocolate (which never gets consumed, anyway). I’ve tried little books, but they remain unread. I’ve tried arts and crafts, but they never get assembled. Geeks are so much easier to shop for!
My wish list of “wants” and “needs” is rather extensive, but I just added six Proporta items to it tonight. Expect even more gift suggestions (and accompanying links) in the coming weeks. Who wouldn’t want these?
- Car Cigarette Lighter Socket Splitter (3-Way with LED light)
- Solar Charger – USB charger – Mobile Device Charger
- USB Mobile Device Charger (USB Rechargeable Battery) with Car and World AC Power
- Headphone Cable Tidy
- UV Security Light and Marker Pen
- Car Power with Firewire Socket
These recommendations aren’t linked through any affiliate program, by the way – I make them because I’m sure you’re struggling to find something for that special geeky someone, too.

Proporta USB Mobile Device Charger (USB Rechargeable Battery) with Car and World AC Power
That set is amazing, for $80 + VAT that’s quite the set for the world traveler. I am impressed.

dawn at Life Inchoate today mentions something Ponzi might like (she doesn’t read this, does she? ): http://www.autosportcatalog.com/index.cfm?fa=p&pid=1456&cid=9
Geeky and chick-ey.

Chris,
Awesome stuffers. I almost wish I was married to a geek. Hey, isn’t a new house with a ceiling that isn’t collapsing into the master closet a pretty good Christmas gift? I know it’s not the same as having a triple cig lighter adapter on your stocking, but still is a pretty impressive Cmas gift.

Cool gift ideas Chris. Almost makes me wish I was married to a geek. Hey though, isn’t a brand new house with a roof that isn’t crashing through the master closet and walls full of mold a pretty good Christmas gift? I know it’s still not like have a 3way cig lighter adapter in your stocking, but still it’s not bad. :-) Have fun in San Fran!

Stocking stuffers for Ponzi: Diamonds, pearls, rubies, emeralds, sapphires are a girl’s best friend. I bet you could find something a very interesting stocking stuffer for your first Christmas as an officially married couple.

How bizarre is it that I type stocking stuffer on Google and I end up on your site. Once I saw your pic I knew it had to be you. I see you’re still asking girls to marry you….I’m supposing this time your question was not answered with “I have to ask my mom� and you didn’t pull her pigtails. :)Congrats and best wishes!

There’s some great stocking stuffers in this catalog, though they don’t break them out that way. Look under “gifts for her” and “cooking and dining.” This is a Portland, OR company. They have a lifetime, no questions asked, guarantee. I’ve done work for them. Good place to shop. This is another of their catalogs, and they do have stocking stuffers as a category. (Who doesn’t need Streamside Sushi Sticks?) They used to be called Early Winters. Don’t miss the Buff Bandana that you can wear 8 different ways. Top Seller.
