Think sleep masks, Laneige lip balms, silk scrunchies and LEGO sets, all suitable for slipping inside their stockings ahead of Christmas morning. Not the right vibe? I’ve also located novelty gifts, miniature gadgets and edible gifts like cocktail cans and coffee guaranteed to please, too.
So, whether you’re looking to stuff a Christmas stocking or simply add some smaller presents to their (neatly wrapped) pile, I’ve found you options. And, best of all, most come in under £30.
