Stocking Stuffers

It’s no secret that I love Christmas. One of my absolute favorite things, though, is to stuff stockings. Stockings were always fun and special when I was growing up, so I went all out to make Ponzi’s special this year, as well.

Here is a list of what I put into her stockings. Yes… there are two! She has two feet, so she may as well have two stockings.

  • KitKat bar
  • Light Blaster (bends and refracts light. Cool to look at xmas lights through)
  • Hazlenut chocolates
  • Service bell (like at counters in stores) to get ahold of me easier
  • Audio power pack for iPhone… one for her purse, and one for her car
  • Pound of Major Dickinson’s Blend coffee from Peet’s, which is her favorite
  • Neon glow 22″ necklace
  • Play money… to help start her on her coin collection. What?! Play money doesn’t count? Oh well, it’s still fun.
  • Harmonica
  • Life Savers Storybook
  • Kazoo
  • A cow keychain that moo’s and has an LED light. This is to symbolize the fact that she wanted to donate to a charity that buys a cow for a needy family, who can then use it for milk… and eventually meat.
  • Oreo cookies
  • Paw rubber stamp
  • Earplugs, so that she won’t have to hear the Ventrilo stream when she doesn’t want to
  • Chocolate coins. Unfortunately, they don’t make plain ones anymore, so these are SpongeBob Squarepants ones
  • Stretch Deck, to help her with stretching more, which is something she plans to do
  • Sour Patch candy

i have that cow light hahaha

omg its chris!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3rd -_-

lmao @ the macintrash repeating xD

a substitute for those glasses would be some acid.

iphones wouldnt be great because they may or may not have at&t as their phone company

my parents, uhhh, “Santa Claus”

lmao

i think if you could give someone an iphone or a windows mobile smart phone. they are awsome because it like have a laptop but in your pocket.

You don’t use the same cow for milk AND meat. O_o

“macs like chocolate”

That is a LOT of stuff….I usually only get a few things for christmas….then again usually the things are worth at least $100

those chocolates are expensive how could he not say the name there famous over here.

lol i need to get some stuffers thanks for the tips

I love those neon glow necklaces- At one point I accidentally broke one and the liquid still glowed when it was out of the tube.

chris great form good demonstration I wish I got Ponzi’s stocking(s) I got nothing but candy you really know how to stuff a stocking.

P.S. sorry about the whole heyitsrachael thing sorry

your puting a kit kat bar next to a fire place its going to melt

Nice, thats alot of stuff lol.

and the socks will burn :(

Some great stocking fillers Chris, but I’m not sure if I would want a mooing cow! I think memory sticks and USB hubs can be good ones too.

mooooooooooooooo, it lights up,lololol
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw is all i can say

HAHAHA …Thats why people use stairway railings now!!!! :)

boring..chris just do us a favor and jump out the dam window

?? he did say the names of the chocolates lol. Except he mis-pronounced “Ferraro Rocher”. And it isn’t that expensive…like he said, he got it for $3…is that expensive? lol, not in my opinion.

Hey, I get oranges in my stocking. :D. I also think that it was a good idea for the Powerpack! I wish I had one, but I can’t find any in my area. Thanks for the tips and I will use them next year!

In my Earth Space ckass last year we used those glasses to see the different color wavelengths of different elements when they are electrified, it was really cool.

Our family has a tradition of getting each other gag gifts and this list was a source of great ideas. Thanks. BTW, my mom got me a “hand held computer” for christmas this year. It is a pocket etch-n-sketch. :)

The last time I had stockings up my dog took them down and ate everything!! I never did them this year..

Happy Holidays!

“feraro ‘Rocher’” LMFAO
