A good stocking filler is small, a little bit of a surprise, and cheap enough that you can buy several. The trick is to mix a few kinds: something to eat, something for the bath, something to read and something to build. That way the stocking has variety even when each gift is only a few pounds.

Everything on this page costs between £1.75 and £10.99, and each item is sold by a shop that lists it as in stock or ready to add to a basket. Chocolate and bath bombs travel well in the post and suit nearly any age. The LEGO sets suit children from 6 or 7 upwards, and the Dickens paperback is short enough to read on Christmas afternoon. Prices change, so check at the shop before you buy.

Questions people ask

How much should I spend on a stocking filler?

There is no fixed rule. Many people spend a few pounds on each small gift and fill the stocking with several, which is why this page runs from £1.75 to £10.99.

What are good stocking fillers for adults?

Chocolate, bath bombs and a short paperback all work well for adults. The Hotel Chocolat selectors and the Lush bath bombs here are easy to wrap and cheap to post.

What are good stocking fillers for children?

Small LEGO sets and chocolate shapes suit most children. Check the age guide on any building set; the LEGO sets here are for ages 6 and over or 7 and over.

Do stocking fillers need to be wrapped?

That is up to you. Many families wrap each item so there is more to open, while others leave small items loose in the stocking. Small, flat gifts are the easiest to wrap.
