I decided I didn't want to pay for shipping for toys I know they won't use.

Instead, I paid a visit to the local toy store and got my dad a 1970s edition of a toy Paratrooper and a 7-in-1 survival whistle...which the toy owner said is a genuine fully-functioning tool, and I know he has an emergency kit in both cars.

I bought a bunch of cool stuff, all of it was $8 or under

For the TP roll stocking stuffers (which I bought red duct tape for to keep it festive-looking) I got my parents two emergency glow sticks that can be turned on and off and will last for up to 20 hours...I got them frilly bouncy balls for fun...candy such as smarties, skittles, and dum dums (because obviously Christmas candy isn't in stock yet, so I bought them candy I would like to eat) to fit inside either by themselves or with a toy. For my dad, I got him a hand-painted (by me) toy car Camaro in the same make if the car he has.

For the stackables, I got my mom and dad beanies, I got my mom art stuff like canvases, brushes, paints, oil pastels, and a sketchbook.

And when I get hired and paid I'll be getting my parents the Fit Bit Ulta for the Big Gift.

It's great that everything I got was under $10, leaves me more to shop for.

And I got Cards Against Humanity for myself, one of my favorites.
Thanks for this!
