The sky is the limit when it comes to inexpensive budget stocking stuffers for women. Many small items are used daily (or almost daily) that work well for the Christmas stockings. Stockings should be lighthearted and fun.

If you aren't sure what inexpensive budget stocking stuffers to buy for women this list is riding to your rescue. With it, you'll get that stocking filled in no time.

#1
Stockings
What better stocking stuffers are there than stockings? Women can always use an extra pair for work or church. An inexpensive set of knee-highs can be kept in the glove compartment of the car for fashion emergencies. Consult with the woman in your life for brands and styles well ahead of the holiday.

#2
Lotion
Winter air dries skin. Lotions and hand cream are always helpful. Small tubes can be tucked into purses or backpacks. Pick these up in the health and beauty section of the grocery store or discount retail store.

#3
Manicure kits
Small manicure kits can be found for around $5 or less. These are great for stuffers. Women can always use a second kit for traveling. Find these at a drugstore or discount retail store like Wal-Mart or Target.

#4
Pens
Pens are always needed. A small set of pretty pens can often be picked up at the office supply store.

#5
Lip balm
Winter air is as hard on the lips as it is on hands. Buy a small tube of lip balm from the beauty section of the grocery store.

#6
Gift cards
Gift cards in small amounts can be a perfect gift. That $5 Starbucks card may be the perfect stocking stuffer addition for the woman in your life.

#7
Chocolate
If you can't buy Godiva then Hershey's will do. Fun size or full size. There's something about chocolate that makes almost every girl smile.

#8
Christmas music
Inexpensive CDs can be found at dollar stores or discount retail stores. Choose from peppy sing-a-longs to soothing instrumental tunes.

#9
Flashlight
A tiny flashlight can be a jewel at times. It can be carried in a purse, backpack or left in the glove compartment of a car. These can be found almost anywhere from dollar stores to grocery stores.

#10
Jewelry
Speaking of jewels, they can be great in a stocking. A boxed holiday bracelet or pin fits well into a stocking. Visit the mall, a Christmas shop or your local Wal-Mart.

#11
Ornaments
Begin a new tradition or continue an old one. A small Christmas ornament can bring joy for years to come. These can be found in the Christmas section of just about any store. Don't wait too late in the season. Supplies will be picked over fast.

#12
Memory cards
Is there anyone who can't use an extra flash drive or memory card?

#13
Munchies
Hard candy, mints, gum or small packages of nuts or crackers can fill in space. They're also good for in between meetings or days spent on the go.

#14
Stress relievers
Toss in a small foam ball, hand held massager, tiny stuffed animal or other stress reliever and add it to the mix. Not only will these items bring a smile but they'll ease stress later.

#15
Hobby items
Items for a favorite hobby are almost always welcome. Pick the items up from an arts and crafts store. If you know what hobby is best but aren't sure of which products to get, ask. Chances are high that a friendly clerk will be glad to help.

#16
Fun office supplies
Small packages of decorative push pens, paper clips, pretty sticky notes or other fun office supplies can add a touch of fun to the workday. Any office supply store should have plenty to choose from.

#17
Uncirculated dollar coins
An uncirculated dollar coin can be a fun stocking stuffer. Newer ones are gold in color and make an interesting conversation piece. You'll need to make a trip to the bank for one (or more) of these.

#18
Nail polish
Clear is always a good choice. At one time or another almost every woman will need a small bottle. It can be used on fingernails, to stop runs or for craft needs.

#19
Sample size products
A sample size hairspray and toothbrush can be tossed into the glove compartment. Lotions, soaps and gels are great additions for women who love to travel. You can find these items in just about any grocery or drug store.

#20
Small sewing kit
These are perfect for sewing on small buttons or doing a quick seam repair. Pick these up in a craft store or fabric department of your favorite discount retailer.

#21
Handwritten note
Nothing is more inexpensive or says "I love you" more than a thoughtfully written note. Buy a blank card from the stationery store and write your personal note. This is a treasure that may be kept for a lifetime.
