Nothing feels quite as exciting as unwrapping a huge present, but sometimes some of the coolest gifts to give (and receive) are stocking stuffers. From the latest Apple AirPods Pro to cool gadgets (or a side of booze and hot sauce), the real stars of the gifting season might not come in a big package with a bow on top, but rather as a small stocking stuffer that’s just as impressive. If you’re looking for the best stocking stuffers to give to friends and family this year, we have you covered. (And if you’re in need of more gift ideas, we found the best Christmas gifts, the best fitness gifts, and plenty of other gift guides for all your holiday shopping needs this year.)

What Makes a Good Stocking Stuffer?
There are a few things to keep in mind when shopping for the best stocking stuffers on Amazon and beyond. First, if you’re shopping for a stocking stuffer, you’ll want to make sure the gift you’re buying can actually fit in a stocking. You’re not always going to know how much room you’ll have to work with, but the good news is that it’s easier than ever to find high-quality gifts that won’t require a box, from earbuds to mugs — and, most importantly, be something that everyone will love to get.
