Christmas stocking stuffers have long been the afterthoughts of gift-giving, mere "Let's just get this out of the way" or "Oh no, I forgot again" presents like oven mitts, bulk chocolate candy, and anything bacon-scented. (Do not get us started on wh*skey st*nes.) Most of these last-minute gift ideas are just begging to be tossed in a junk drawer or the donation pile, never to see the light of day again. Granted, it's a fate they probably deserve.

But let's be clear on something: You don't have to buy stuff that's bad, boring, or cheaply made just because it's small in size and set to arrive before Christmas. Picking out the best stocking stuffers is a cinch, so long as you know who you're shopping for... and where to look.

You've already got enough on your plate this holiday season, so we've done the searching for you. Below, we've rounded up an extensive list of tiny-but-impressive presents at a range of price points that can work for everyone on your list. So, whether you're searching for stocking stuffer ideas under $25 or something fancier that will catch them by surprise on Christmas morning, we have more than 60 unique gifts to inspire you.

Let the holiday shopping commence.

A ChomChom Roller

For pet parents

Black fabric versus white pet hair: The ultimate showdown. Relieve your friend or family member of incessant lint-rolling and gift them the ChomChom, a reusable dog and cat hair remover that can pick up any shedding the vacuum skips over. It works on almost any surface (from couches to carpet to car seats) and doesn't require sticky tape or papers.

A microSD card

For gamers

The Nintendo Switch's 32GB storage capacity seems ample until you try to install another game alongside "Breath of the Wild." If the gamer in your life is jonesing for copies of "Pokémon Scarlet" and "Violet" or "Splatoon 3" this holiday season, stash a 128GB microSD card in their stocking so their console has room for more downloads.

Squishmallows “Bluey” stuffy

For the toddler set

Any kid obsessed with the Heeler Family will adore this super plush Bluey Squishmallow. Use her to play "magic xylophone" and "keepy uppy," or simply snuggle her at bedtime while dreaming about being a fruit bat. At just 6 inches tall, she's small enough to poke out from the top of a stocking and will be a welcome sight come Christmas morning.

A Fire TV Stick 4K

For binge-watchers

At the risk of sounding dramatic, a Fire TV Stick is life-changing for anyone who doesn't have a smart TV. It puts Netflix, Hulu, and the rest of their go-to streaming apps all in one place (sans HDMI cables). The latest 4K model features Dolby Vision, HDR, and HDR10+ support; it also includes a companion Alexa Voice Remote for hands-free control.

An ice roller

For skincare savants

A #skintok favorite, ice rollers are often touted as magic bullets for under-eye puffiness and inflamed pimples. (They also work well for massaging achy muscles, if you can find one big enough — think cryotherapy on minimal coin.) This one's got over 15,400 5/5-star customer reviews on Amazon and comes in five colors.

Bala Bangles

For fitness fanatics

Bala Bangles are this year's must-have fashion accessory — and if you know what's good for you, an off-brand dupe won't cut it. These lightweight ankle/wrist weights are designed to add "comfortable resistance" to workouts, whether your recipient's into yoga, boxing, or just basic Hot Girl Walks™️. Each pair comes with a matching carrying case.

A shaving bib

For bearded beauties

"You left beard clippings in the sink" is such a common complaint that one man went on Shark Tank to pitch Beard King: A shaving bib that attaches to any mirror, solving this age-old problem once and for all. It's a genius way to keep the counter clean and even comes with a handy travel pouch. One size fits everyone!

A pickleball paddle

For sporty types

Gatekept among the Florida retiree crowd before it went mainstream in 2022, pickleball is a beginner-friendly sport that combines tennis, badminton, and ping-pong. Your recipient can hit the court in style with one of Recess' pickleball paddles, which have sanded texture surfaces for extra spin and control, sweatproof faux-leather grips, and a range of fun pattern options. Let the games begin.

A Lush bath bomb

For spa lovers

The combo of stress and so-cold-it-hurts weather is almost unbearable, but an easy solution (that also happens to be extremely photogenic) is a bath bomb. These soapy spheres dissolve into fragrant, fizzing froth when they hit water; the colorful handmade ones you can get from Lush come with an extra sprinkle of clout.

A clip-on strainer

For college students

Pasta is an essential comfort food to keep on hand — and if you're gifting to someone who's low on cabinet space, this clip-on plastic strainer keeps them from having to buy a totally separate utensil. The adjustable clips grip tightly to both small and large pots, and not having to hold a colander underneath lowers the likelihood of burnt fingers.

Stasher bags

For snackaholics

Made in a variety of sizes and a rainbow of different colors, Stasher's reusable silicone bags and pouches are eco-friendly alternatives to the single-use plastic variety. (Bonus: You can safely toss them in the freezer, oven, microwave, and dishwasher.) Plop a few of your giftee's favorite chips, candy, or snacks in there and you're golden.

A mini mushroom grow kit

For gardeners

No yard, no problem. This organic mini mushroom grow kit from Back to the Roots will make it possible for your recipient to grow tasty oyster mushrooms year-round (and with very little maintenance, besides misting their crop once daily). It's better than "farm-to-table" — it's "table-to-table."

An Oura Ring Gen3

For wellness warriors

If you like it, put a ring on it, right? The Oura 3 is "the latest and (so far) greatest release in the so-hot-right-now genre of wearables known as smart rings," writes Mashable editor-at-large Chris Taylor. This non-blingy ring, after all, is packed with research-grade sensors that can monitor metrics like stress, sleep, heart rate, and temperature. Choose from four finishes: Silver, gold, black, or a matte black "stealth."

A Cricut EasyPress Mini

For DIYers

Know someone who makes all of their presents by hand? Cricut's EasyPress Mini (its teensiest heat press) is a portable DIY sidekick that can transfer designs to small projects like shirts, hats, shoes, and stuffed animals. It works with iron-ons/Cricut's Infusible Inks and includes an insulated safety base for easy storage.

A deodorant-removing sponge

For people who wear all black

There's not a person in the world who hasn't dealt with annoying deodorant stains (unless they don't wear deodorant, which is a whole other problem). Your giftee can keep their 'fits fresh with this portable pink sponge, which makes those pesky smudges disappear ASAP.

A mulberry silk pillowcase

For luxury lovers

"Indulgent" is a word rarely used to describe pillowcases, but it certainly applies to those made of mulberry silk — which protects hair and skin from friction damage in all of its breathable, buttery-soft glory. Brooklinen's come in nine colors and can be bundled with other sleep accessories like pillows/eye masks. (They also make matching scrunchies, FIY.)

A heatless hair curler

For low-maintenance types

Made from smooth satin that doesn't tangle or pull, this bestselling foam hair rod promises flawless heatless curls while you sleep: Just secure it in place with the included clip, wrap it with slightly damp hair away from the face, secure each side with hair ties, then hit the hay for no-fuss styling overnight. It costs $590 less than a Dyson Airwrap, for what it's worth.

A pair of cloud slides

For cozy folks

Slippers are a classic stocking stuffer, but these top-rated cloud/pillow slides are trendier than most. (Plus, they won't get crusty over time like fuzzy, fluffy ones.) They're made from ultra-lightweight Ethylene Vinyl Acetate with a cushy, 1.7-inch sole and 13 colors options. Pro tip: Your giftee can soften the upper strap with a hair dryer and two pairs of socks for a custom fit.

A pair of gold hoop earrings

For romantics

A pair of classic hoops is a staple in any jewelry box, and this medium-thick pair made with (durable but affordable) 18k gold vermeil is a happy medium between minimalism and vintage. Mejuri is still the "It Girl" of fine jewelry brands, and if your recipient is on TikTok, they'll be over the moon to flex something from there in their OOTDs.

Mike's Hot Honey

For certified foodies

Brooklyn's own Mike's Hot Honey is exactly what it sounds like: All-natural honey infused with chili peppers. It's a simple but god-tier condiment that can be drizzled on just about any food for a sweet-and-spicy kick, from roasted veggies to ice cream to fried chicken. (Haley here: I love it in a hot toddy or on a fat slice of Detroit-style pepperoni pizza.) Pink Sauce could never.

An odor rub-away bar

For home cooks

Garlic and onions are indisputably delicious — and the world's most stubborn scents. This dishwasher-safe stainless steel "bar of soap" eliminates those odors from your hands like magic when you "wash" them with it (because: Molecular science), working with or without water.

A cookie press

For bakers

OXO's Good Grips Cookie Press is a baker's saving grace during the hectic holiday cookie season. "Perfect cookies at warp speed if you follow the directions and do what they say," says one of 6,600-plus Amazon reviewers who gave it a five-star review. It includes a set of interchangeable discs in 12 patterns, including snowflake, tree, wreath, daisy, and sunflower.

A mini Le Creuset cocotte

For girlies who love soup

Surprise, surprise: Everyone's favorite fancy French cookware brand *does* make something at a stocking stuffer price point. Available in 14 hues (pictured here in artichaut), this extremely adorable 8-ounce mini cocotte is ideal for eggs, individual pot pies, mini cobblers, and ladle-fulls of French onion soup smothered in gruyere.

A 3-in-1 avocado slicer

For guac obsessives

It’s normal to carry around spare guac, right? Make an avocado lover's dreams come true with this handy 3-in-1 tool. They'll be able to slice, pit, scoop, and whip up avocado toast like the best TikTok food bloggers out there, then throw the tool in the dishwasher after the prep is done.

A milk frother

For aspiring baristas

It's no Nespresso machine — those don't fit in stockings, anyway (!!) — but a handheld milk frother makes it easy to elevate an ordinary latte or cup of hot chocolate with a dollop of creamy foam. Boasting over 61,000 5/5-star ratings on Amazon, this one comes in nearly 40 colors and includes a stand so it doesn't get lost in a drawer.

A bamboo chasen for matcha

For fancy tea people

A good chasen (read: Tea whisk) is the key to a frothy and lump-free matcha latte. For the friend who always orders one on Starbucks runs, this starter kit contains a 100% natural bamboo chasen (traditionally used instead of metal ones), a matching scoop, and a cute stirring spoon.

Nugget ice cube trays

For beveragino buffs

No need to splurge on a GE Profile Opal nugget ice maker when some cheap ice trays can get the job done just as well. These are made from dishwasher-safe, BPA-free silicone that bends to help its mini-cubes release easily. "This is the most similar I can get to Sonic ice at home," writes one Amazon reviewer. Say less.

A Vacu Vin Wine Saver

For wine snobs

Realistically, it's highly unlikely that a wine lover would ever leave much in a bottle once it's been opened. But for the rare occasion when they decide otherwise, this vacuum wine stopper and pump set will ensure their Merlot or Pinot Grigio stays fresh for up to 10 days. (Big plus: It's dishwasher-safe.)

A bottle of red wine stain remover

For spill-prone wine snobs

White wine drinkers are pretty much in the clear, but red wine devotees are risking it all when it comes to white shirts, furniture, or carpets. Spray-on Wine Away can remove new and dried wine stains as well as coffee, ink, blood (yikes), juice, and more. It's especially great for people with messy kids... or drunk uncles.

A Baggu reusable bag

For farmer's market fiends

Can you ever *really* have too many reusable bags? Hint: The answer is no. Grab one of these durable totes from the TikTok-famous Baggu brand for your on-the-go bestie (or for someone who just needs to stop using so much plastic). They come in over three dozen funky colors and patterns, fold up into their own pouch, and hold up to 50 pounds.

A LifeStraw personal water filter

For wilderness explorers

A No. 1 bestseller on Amazon, the humble LifeStraw is a portable filter that can remove bacteria, parasites, dirt, and microplastics (yum!) from natural water sources. Any outdoor-inclined pals who spend their weekends hiking and camping will get a ton of use out of this thing; it can purify 1,000 gallons of water with proper care and maintenance.

A Bug Bite Thing

For patio patrons

Here's another great "as seen on Shark Tank" find: The Bug Bite Thing is a reusable device that uses suction to remove insect venom, saliva, and other irritants from the skin, preventing itchy reactions without the use of creams or chemicals. If your recipient spends a lot of time on patios or around bo
