The Ultimate Roomie Stocking Stuffer List

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Marquette chapter.

With the holidays quickly approaching, the annual roomie gift exchange can be the excitement to look forward to! A great way to avoid studying for finals is to online shop, and what’s more fun than shopping for your friends? Here are 7 of the best “stocking stuffer” ideas for roomie Christmas presents!

1. At-Home Spa Day

A one-stop-shop at TJ Maxx and you could come up with the cutest little spa basket. Grab a holiday scented candle, some fuzzy socks, a couple face masks, a sweet-smelling lotion, and a bundle of the softest cotton face towels for the ultimate spa day.

2. Warm Feelings

Sometimes simple is better! With these frigid Wisconsin winters, make sure your roomies stay cozy and warm by getting them a coordinating scarf and mitten set! They’ll definitely appreciate it when they’re trekking to class at 8 AM in the snow.

3. Peppermint Hot Cocoa Mix

You might think this is a little basic but just wait. The ultimate hot cocoa stocking stuffer doesn’t just include the mix. Grab an indulgent container of Ghirardelli or Godiva hot chocolate, pick out and extra-cute mug, and don’t forget to include some pieces of chocolate! To make this the perfect gift, add some peppermint schnapps shooters to make the BEST holiday drink – peppermint hot cocoa! (AKA: Christmas in a cup).

4. Mini Makeup Haul

Just going on the Sephora app right now gives me an adrenaline rush. There are SO MANY mini versions of the best products, as well as the CUTEST gift sets. Pick out a few that you know your roomie has been dying to try and wrap them all up in a cute little box!

5. KYLIE KRISTMAS Collection

Would I even be a human being if I didn’t call attention to KYLIE Cosmetics? She’s dropping her KRISTMAS collection on November 19th, and it’s the perfect gift for your makeup guru roomie!

6. Party in Your PJ’s!

Don’t underestimate the power of flannel pajamas. Give your roommates’ the gift of ULTIMATE cozy – a set of flannel PJ’s and a cute sweater. Keep a lookout on the Aerie website because they always have good sales around the holidays!

7. Fine Wine & Shine!

A super cute idea is to pick out some of your roomies’ favorite wine, a cute glass, and a sparkly stopper for a cozy wine & movie night by the fire. Plus, they’re definitely going to need a huge glass once finals are officially over (or for studying, we don’t judge).

Hi everyone! I'm a Marquette student studying biomedical engineering (and spending my free time in my pajamas and a scrunchie, writing about my awkward life). I love writing about things that are interesting to me, from how to survive when your life is falling apart to the best brownie frosting recipe that ever existed. I can't wait to share what I write with everyone!
