Even after all of the presents are wrapped and resting beautifully under the tree, I seem to forget every year that I’m not done shopping yet after all. I don’t have the stockings stuffed!
Are you ever in the same boat? Well don’t worry guys, I’ve got you covered. 2 stops and $20 bucks will do it (and that’s if you have a family of 4!) It’s all about Target dollar bins and Dollar Tree Every single one of these stocking stuffer ideas are a buck! I hope this will help cease any stuffing of stockings anxiety. 😉
