Whether you’re six years old or sixty plus, it’s always fun when you receive a stocking filled with goodies. Finding just the right stocking stuffers can be a huge challenge.
10 stocking stuffers under $25!
RESQME Emergency Keychain Car Escape Tool
A few years ago, I picked up several of these and gave them as gifts to my wife and daughter. They still carry them today and I feel better knowing that they have them if they need them.
This tool is a seatbelt cutter and glass breaker with a quick-deploy keychain attachment. Guaranteed to be there in an emergency to serve your loved ones well. Offered here in a three pack, this is the best value for your money under $25!
Zebra Pen
Everyone should be carrying a pen today, if only so you don’t have to use one that others have used.
The entire Zebra line is high quality at a great price. We like the X-701 tactical ball point because it is built like a little tank that you can write with. And it comes with two refills!
Pocket Partners Aluminum Pen
As much as I love Zebra pens, I prefer a pen with a cap over a click pen. I carry the Pocket Partners Aluminum Pen with me almost every day. I love the way it looks and the way it feels in my hand. It’s got just enough weight to it that I’m not likely to leave it behind or lose it. At least so far.
This pen comes in three designer colors, takes standard refills and, like the Zebra, will provide years of service.
Plasma Lighters
Whether the stocking you’re trying to stuff belongs to a smoker or not, there are a ton of reasons to carry some kind of lighter. For those who appreciate the value of a good lighter, a plasma lighter is a great option.
These lighters use arcs of electricity rather than a flame and they turn off when the button is released, making them safer than standard Zippo or Bic lighters.
They charge with a standard USB cable and require no flammable, or stinky lighter fluid, either.
We’ve chosen two stocking stuffers for you, one that doubles as a flashlight. Check them out here:
Waterproof Dual Arc Lighter
JiaDa Waterproof 2in1 Electric Lighter & Flashlight
SMART TOUCH Touchless Door Opener
There are a ton of these tools on the market right now. Given the world today, we had to include one of these handy gadgets in our list of stocking stuffers.
This one comes in a 2-pack. And it includes a soft tip that can be used on most keypads and touch screens.
Whether you choose this one or some other model, these tools are a must-have in our world today. They make a great addition to any stocking this Christmas!
Keysmart Key Organizer
Is there someone in your life who’s keyring is out of control? This is the stocking stuffer for them!
I’ve been using a Keysmart on my own keyring for years and it has made my keychain much more manageable!
This model comes in a variety of colors and can hold up to 14 keys with the included expansion pack.
RediTape Compact Flat Fold Duct Tape
One internet source credits Oprah Winfrey with saying, “Duct tape is like the force. It has a light side, and it holds the world together.”
I don’t know if she really said that, but it’s true, so let’s go with it.
The fact is that there are a lot of ways you might use this handy item. If only there were a good way to carry some that didn’t require that big round roll.
Now you can! Leave the roll at home and gift someone you want to Be Ready with a pack of this awesome stuff! We carry duct tape, in flat packs or small rolls, everywhere and find them to be very handy.
We know that whomever you gift this with will, too!
Gerber EAB Pocket Knife
Besides duct tape, the most versatile tool everyone should carry is some sort of cutting tool. We feel strongly about this. That’s why any list of gift ideas we offer will probably include a cutting tool.
The Gerber EAB is a small, compact, folding utility blade. It can easily fit in a pocket or a stocking!
If you know someone who needs a cutting tool for opening boxes, cutting cord, trimming things, this is a wonderful stocking stuffer!
And the best part? No sharpening, just change out the utility blade when needed. Super easy!
Kershaw Faultline

When someone on your list needs a knife, the Kershaw Faultline is an excellent choice.
I own a number of Kershaw knives and I have been consistently impressed with their value for the money. The Faultline has a 3 inch blade, good ergonomics, and decent blade steel for everyday carry. You can’t go wrong with this knife.

Work Sharp EDC Pivot Knife Sharpener

They say that a sharp knife is a safe knife. My experience has been that this is absolutely true.
Whether you pick one of the knives on this list or something from our Holiday Knife Guide, owning a knife without a good way to sharpen it is never a good idea.
However, the Work Sharp EDC Pivot Knife Sharpener is always a good idea! I own, and use, several of these. At only $3.95 each, there’s no good reason not to have at least one handy at all times.
Grab one of these little beauties for the knife enthusiast in your life. You can’t go wrong with Work Sharp!
