There is no doubt about it, the holidays are approaching… and they are approaching fast! As the holiday countdown commences, parents, like myself, are starting to think about how to surprise our families and friends with stocking stuffers and gifts that are sure to make a lasting impact this holiday season. Now, more so than ever, it is of great importance that we take the time to create meaningful memories with our loved ones. So the next question is, how does one achieve the perfect holiday surprise?
Simply put: it’s the little things. Stocking stuffers are an excellent way for parents to get creative and maintain an element of surprise this holiday season. Target is the perfect go-to when crafting your stockings and spreading holiday cheer.
The milk, the cookies, the tree, been there, done that— the secret to true holiday treasures are hidden at the bottom of the stocking. As a kid, my father would fill our stockings with candy, gum, and even fresh fruit for luck. You could always tell that he put his heart into upholding our holiday traditions, especially when it came to our stockings.
Traditions and holidays go hand-in-hand and every family has unique quirks that makes each celebration even more meaningful than the next. This season I have the honor of sharing my family traditions with two families that could use helpful suggestions and examples to brighten up their stockings. While shopping for the stocking stuffers, I made sure to use my Target Circle Offers. Click here for discounts with Target Circle offers each week for holiday savings! There are new offers each week. #stockingstuffersatTarget. If you are like me, then you enjoy a good deal while maintaining the quality.
This year, I am particularly enthusiastic about a snowman theme and have decided to include SOUR PATCH KIDS Soft & Chewy Candy, SWEDISH FISH Soft & Chewy Candy, TOBLERONE Chocolate Bars, TRIDENT Gum, TRIDENT VIBES Gum, and DENTYNE Gum. The SOUR PATCH KIDS Candy is a fun candy for all; it is soft and chewy and packed with pucker power. SWEDISH FISH Candy is an excellent addition to the stocking with its bright-colored fish, bite-size, and sweet taste but not too sweet chewy treat. The only chocolate treat used in a holiday stocking is a TOBLERONE Chocolate Bar, which is made with honey and almond nougat. These chocolate bars are instantly recognizable thanks to their unique chocolate peak shape and unmistakable packs.
Hard to believe, but in my family, a holiday stocking would not be complete without gum. The stockings I have created for these two families will have three varieties of gum within them. TRIDENT Gum is bursting with flavor with a wide variety of flavors. TRIDENT VIBES Gum is a sugar-free gum that comes in a small plastic container and has a fun twist on traditional TRIDENT Gum with various crystal-coated flavors that burst with flavor and helps you chew through your day - no matter what gets thrown your way. Finally, DENTYNE Gum is an excellent taste for whatever you're in the mood for. Holiday cheer would not be complete without stockings filled with love and traditionally fun candies and gum. Even better, you can give stockings like this to all: co-workers, teammates, friends, neighbors, or even used as a kind act towards another.
This holiday season, let's work together on spreading holiday cheer. Target is fully stocked with all of our favorite holiday stocking stuffing items. Make sure to use your Target Circle Offer for your candy and gum items to complete your holiday stocking.
