Stocking stuffers don’t have to be all about candy and toys. Sprinkle in some of these useful winter gifts that are all about winter safety, comfort, and warmth — because isn't that what the holidays are really about?
Heated Ice Scraper
A heated ice scraper that melts ice as it scrapes sounds like a huge improvement over scrapers that rely purely on old-fashioned elbow grease. This wireless model charges instead of plugging in for added safety. And for $15 it won’t melt away your holiday fund.
Handwarmer with Smartphone Recharge & Flashlight
This gadget does it all. The Handwarmer with Smartphone Recharge doubles as an emergency flashlight that shines for up to 50 hours, plus it serves as a backup phone charger. For warmth, simply switch it on for up to five hours of comfort. And it delivers that comfort quickly, as it can heat up to 104 degrees in 60 seconds. Meanwhile, it will charge a phone (including all the popular Apple and Android models) in 3.5 hours. A super-slim, lightweight design also makes it ideal for outdoor activities. And it’s eco-friendly — it can be recharged over 500 times, all for the price of $35.
X-Gear Adventure Series Solid Ice Scraper Mitt
It’s a cold job, but somebody’s got to do it. Let them know it’s their job with this scraper mitt. The water-resistant fabric on this scraper mitt keeps hands warm and protected while they scrape away in comfort. One size fits most for $11.
Reusable Hand Warmers
Give the gift of warm hands to those you love. These eco-friendly, boil-heat storage hand warmers are rechargeable. Just drop them in boiling water for a few minutes whenever they stop providing heat. At $25, this is a great gift for anybody on your list.
