Oranges, candy, small gifts.
When I was growing up in the 60s and 70s, I thought it was odd that I always got an orange or tangerine. I actually just recently learned why -- that was a tradition from the Depression, when money was scarce and oranges were a bit of a rarity. Since my parents were both rather poor during the Depression, that was their experience -- and they continued it as a nice way of paying homage to their parents getting them through the bad times of their childhoods. Quite touching.

Mainly candy tends to go into Chrsitmas stockings - at least the kind you hang for Santa.

We get to open one Christmas Eve present. Then Santa comes in the night, leaves the gifts, and for those who are hopping and dancing and prancing and cannot stand it, they can take their stockings to bed with them at 3 a.m. and quietly open them and look at the goodies till the rest of the family is up around 7 or 8 the next morning. That's how we do it, and it is fun, fun, fun!

Santa can put a variety of things into stockings..
For instance, coal or candy or little toys..
But most of all, giftcards for the older crowd or jewelery for that matter.
But, the favorite hott celebrity could be in there too..

When Santa visits our house, he always puts a new toothbrush, lip balm, sugar free gum, candy, gloves and small toys in the stockings! The toothbrush is our tradition, and the Easter Bunny brings one, too!

What Santa puts in your stocking depends
on what list your on...
The Nutty list would be a bunch of coal.
The nice list would include a new C.D.
one or two new D.V.D's, books, makeup (unless your a guy),
and perfume (or cologne for men), a fuzzy stuffed animal,
a new piece of lingere, nail polish, and candy.

Nothing. We do it. Santa never shows up.
