Black Friday is your chance to ditch tacky, useless stocking stuffers and switch them for luxury gifts instead. I've searched through all the sales to find products that people really want to pull out of a stocking – no more socks, nail clippers, and can openers.
I don't want to overwhelm you with Black Friday deals for two reasons: most deals won't fit into a stocking and it's hard to keep quality high when you're scrolling through hundreds of suggestions too. Here are the 15 items that people will love to pull out of their stockings in the morning.
Some of these pieces even double up as Christmas decor (which we have plenty of ideas for). They'll be timeless, treasures, and, most importantly, useful all year round.
