My wife and daughter seem to regularly give me shampoo, body wash and deodorant/antiperspirant... Hmmm... I thought they just didn't have other ideas, but now I wonder if they are trying to tell me something.
Nope, You've just got some practical women there. Congrats! You really didn't need the 3/4HP router with power table. It wouldn't fit in the stocking anyway.
Gifts...grain mill, sewing machine, coffee pot, drill press, surgery kit, fire extinguisher, plate carrier w/plates, LTS food... Stocking stuffers...flashlights, ammo, jerky, gloves, bag of quality coffee beans, any sort of PM's... Have a Happy Thanksgiving!
It's not really a stocking STUFFER....but a knitting friend of mine knitted a stocking from paracord last year that I used for my son (he's 37)...she used some red with a green line running through it that I found at the local surplus store. I filled it with a couple kinds of jerky, a sharpening stone, a credit card knife, a deck of survival cards along with the typical fruit and nuts.

Over the last six months, I've been buying up little odds and ends for stocking stuffers at auctions. They don't all have to be new, but many are. Mostly they're fun stuff, and because they were WAY cheap, I have more this year than ever before. It seems the younger the young'un, the more they like a medley of the most improbable stuff.
