As our internal clocks complete the adjustment to daylight savings time, and memories of Halloween slowly fade into the shadows, sparks of Thanksgiving and Christmas start to jump to the forefront of our minds. Thanksgiving is not just a holiday for awesome food, good times with family, and football. It also flags the onset of one of the most anticipated shopping days of the year – Black Friday. People by the thousands will turn out to stand in line for cut throat deals, limited offers, and freebies. Neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow will keep the throng of thrifty shoppers from piling into department and big-box stores that Friday, ready to literally, shop ’til they drop. The temptation to brave this brash bunch is hard to withstand – the sales and offers on Black Friday always seem too good to ignore, especially when it comes to those items on your loved ones wish lists. If, however, you find yourself a little lackluster at the thought of re-enacting the ever-popular Turbo-Man scene from ‘Jingle All the Way’, remember, you have another awesome alternative – online shopping! This year, instead of hurrying to hit up the holiday sales at the brick and mortars, why not shop for great gifts in your pj’s and slippers, with a big ol’ cup of hot chocolate? Here are a few ideas for stocking stuffers that will help to ensure you Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas!

To kick off the season and spread Joy to the World, start out with the basics. Holiday hats add a little jolly to your holly and offer just the right amount of flair for everyone, from elves to humbugs. The Velvet Santa Hat and Reindeer Antlers are perfect for your true traditionalists, but if you’re feeling a little sassy, try out the Springy Mistletoe Headband – it’s kiss tested, pucker approved.

If you’ve got a pretty Princess on your shopping list who does not want a Hippopotamus for Christmas, you can find everything from princess costumes, to jewelry, to chalk, to shoes at Buycostumes.com. One of my personal favorites is the set of Disney Princess Sundae Dishes. There is no better way to offer up a sweet treat to your sweetheart. The Disney Princess Rubber Bracelets are also a fan favorite this year, so be sure to grab a bag!

For your Little Drummer Boy with a penchant for pirates, check out Buycostumes.com selection of buccaneer buys. A corsair costume, cutlass and eye patch are sure to make them shiver their timbers when they open their Yule time treasures! The Spider Web Clock is a unique gift for anyone with a swashbucklin’ set up.

After all of Santa’s little helpers have been tucked in with tummies full of tasty treats, it may be time for Mom and Dad to do a little Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree. To add a dash of  ’allspice’ to your festive attire, take a peek at these hot Christmas costumes and accessories.  The Velvet Miss Santa and Holiday Hottie will leave no question as to who’s naughty or nice, and are the perfect match up with the Sexy Mr. Santa or Satin Santa Boxers. With these spicy numbers, Bells Will Be Ringing, but whatever you do, just be sure the elves don’t see Mommy Kissing Santa Clause underneath the mistletoe!
