Anyone have any interesting stocking ideas? I have both SO and my dad to buy for and don't want to fill their stockings with candy and junk food like years past.

Already ordered Bacon salt and Malt Salt awesome site will probably be buying both of those a lot if they taste good.

A couple of years ago, a Pea (sorry I can't remember who) mentioned how much her dh loved shaving products from the Body Shop. I purchased the following for my own DH and he LOVES THEM!
Shave cream

Shaving brush
Before this dh always used shaving cream in a can - but he's loving this "retro" shave stuff. Never would have occurred to me if is hadn't been for 2 Peas!

They could easily be stocking stuffers too!

I just got a box of man cave candles that was linked on the first page I believe.


I opened the box and almost gagged (definitely NOT a scent i'd be burning in my house, but that's the point. ha. The candles are strong, the packaging is fabulous and the scent is dead on. I can't wait to give these to the men I ordered them for
Shipping was also super quick, LOVE that! I'll definitely be ordering again. Pure Scented Candles

I bought DH a tee shirt that said "in dog years, I'm dead" with am image of a skeleton. He loved it so much, we bought another one as a backup, lol. I can't find it on the wireless catalog site anymore, but this one is similar. http://www.tshirtoutlet.com/rl37.html

I found this lunch box size car oven for DH on amazon. I can't wait for him to try it out. He travels and takes his lunch everyday, and this way he can have some more variety.

Dh and his brothers and best friend grew up playing Resident Evil video games and now still enjoy zombie games and shows. I am considering making each of them something like this:

Thinkgeek.com has a customizable portal gun replica (from the video game Portal or Portal 2) for $99. If you have a techie/gaming geek like my hubby, it's to die for.

I wanted the Whiskey Stones and searched around. They seem to be $19.99 everywhere, but I found them at the Eddie Bauer site on sale for $16.95. Their site shows a minimum order of $49 for free shipping. Searched for a coupon code and got Free shipping. Score!!!

Coupon code for Eddie Bauer free shipping with no minimum order = JOY

I got my husband an effing gear t shirt last year for Christmas. The first time we saw them, we were both hooked. My husband is a huge huskers fan, so I got him the effing Lincoln Nebraska t shirt.

This is a Made in America company too. I emailed them to see and was thrilled that I was buying and supporting an American made company.

They also have an "Eff Sandy" t shirt with proceeds going to aid the victims of the hurricane.

And, they have plain old "eff that" T Shirts too. I think I am going to get hubby one of those this year.

We think they are fun and take no offense to the eff bomb.

For anyone looking for the drink ice cubes, Cost Plus World Market has them for $14.99 with free shipping, no minimum order required. Sorry I can't link from my phone, but they are in the bar accessories section, or just search for drink stones!

Edited to add: they are called "Classic Rocks"

If you are looking for the whiskey stones... I saw them at Home Goods this weekend, and I think they were about $15. Last week I bought them at Target in the men's department. They were in the area with the vintage-looking men's boxed gifts. They weren't the Whiskey Stone brand, but they were the same thing. I think they were about $12.

I just ordered the "Lease A Cow" for my DH. He loves having cheese on hand and he also loves things that are "unique." This will be perfect.
