Guys say that it’s hard to shop for women, but we’ve found that the men in our lives are nearly impossible to buy gifts for. So, we put together a list of stocking stuffer ideas for men that will save you from tearing your hair out.
Because even though we would love to just give coal to everyone this year, you might be feeling a little more generous.
From the weird to the wonderful, the funny to the fundamental, these stocking stuffers range wildly in practicality. But still, they’re all sure to do one thing — turn that coal-induced frown upside down. What? The Black Friday coal deals were insane!
