They're embroidered with our first names.</p> <p>I don't plan on using them forever, I plan to change them up every once in a while, so I don't like to spend a ton. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189433 Fri, 01 Nov 2013 03:33:35 +0000 Sapphiresun 1189433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I might pay up to $50 if they were really amazing. I think mine and DH's were about $25.00ish?<br /> But I might re-buy them now that we have a kiddo but will wait for sales after Christmas. I'm sure my parents have a "my first christmas" stocking already picked out for LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189424 Fri, 01 Nov 2013 02:11:25 +0000 shopaholic 1189424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@PrincessBaby: Ditto!</p> <p>I just ordered K's first stocking from PBK on sale for $19 plus $7 for embroidery. I can wait for DH and mine until there is a sale since we already have random ones from pre-baby. I like that you can get PB mix/match ones to add on for ourselves and future LO. Our random ones were all about $14-18 in the past too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189415 Fri, 01 Nov 2013 01:41:47 +0000 PrincessBaby 1189415@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have monogrammed ones from PB and I think I paid $20 ea + monogramming, and they are really nice and I expect them to last years. The nice thing is they are a PB staple, so as we have more kids I can add on each year:)</p> <p>I remember thinking that was kind of a lot for stockings but then I would see ones at Target, for ex, that were not nearly as nice but still cost near the same price, and I didn't feel bad:) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189386 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 23:35:09 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1189386@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HLK208: ha, not the knitted ones I like! I could do the sewn or somewhat quilted kind though </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189385 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 23:33:32 +0000 HLK208 1189385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>$20 is the cheapest I could find so that's all I paid. They are super expensive when you have a family of more than two!!</p> <p>@Mrs. Pen: you're crafty, I bet you could make them!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189272 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 20:53:39 +0000 immabeetoo 1189272@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have hand-knit ones from my grandma / mom and I :heart: them! If that's your style, maybe check out local crafts bazaars, etc.? But if you're buying PBK or something I'd wait until after-holiday sales too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189191 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 20:09:42 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1189191@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If it was a super cute one I would pay up to $30. They last forever! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189186 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 20:08:41 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1189186@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MsMamaBear: score!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189176 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 20:04:13 +0000 Reese 1189176@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would pay up to $50 if I really loved them. Especially if they were custom. You would have and use them forever. I am also a huge fan of Christmas/holidays so it is easy for me to justify the expense. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1189089 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 19:19:07 +0000 MsMamaBear 1189089@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought some for $4 after Christmas one year, regular price $25-$30 I think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188149 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 12:29:28 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1188149@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: yeah I would want them to last until my child has his own family... my mom still has all our stockings from when we were kids and we still use them for Christmas at her house every year! She makes them and makes a new one for each grandbaby. I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188141 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 12:23:43 +0000 anbanan15 1188141@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom sews ours. She has used the same pattern since my oldest brother was born and the same stockings are still in fantastic shape as many as 38 years later and they get stuffed every year. I have seen similar ones on Etsy in the $25+ range. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188132 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 12:20:26 +0000 ShootingStar 1188132@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Bookish: We just got a PBK one on sale for $19 :). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188131 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 12:19:58 +0000 jmarionsmith 1188131@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i voted 30-40 but, honestly, i would never spend that much on mine or my husband's stockings, just LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188126 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 12:16:06 +0000 Mamaof2 1188126@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I bought some PB ones after Christmas and got them for $9.99 each with free shipping! Buy cheap ones this year and then buy nicer ones once they are on sale =) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188081 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:53:10 +0000 Mrs. Lemon-Lime 1188081@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Unless you plan on getting new stockings every year or few years $20+ sounds reasonable to me. What about getting cheapos this year and buy fantastic ones during.the day after Christmas sales? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188027 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:34:30 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 1188027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think $30 or less is a good price for high quality stockings. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1188012 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:30:14 +0000 Bookish 1188012@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I plan to buy a PBKids one that was on sale (hopefully still is...) for about 20$ + the cost of embroidering her name on. I'm ok with spending a good amount on it because I still use mine from when I was a baby! She better do the same! ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1187992 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:22:59 +0000 LuLu Mom 1187992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I spent like $15 at Hobby Lobby I believe and they have held up great. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1187986 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:20:51 +0000 regberadaisy 1187986@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-spend-on-xmas-stockings" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-much-did-you-spend-on-xmas-stockings</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1187977 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:19:02 +0000 Smurfette 1187977@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I like $20-$30 is good for quality ones that will last for years and years. </p> <p>We were going to get some this year but decided to wait and invest once we are done with having kids so they can all match. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-a-good-price-for-christmas-stockings#post-1187969 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 11:17:18 +0000 Mrs. Pen 1187969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I found some I love for $20/each. Maybe I'm cheap (frugal!), but I find that a little expensive. As a family of 3, it's $60 for stockings! </p> <p>I'm ok with DIY but I simply don't have the time to do it myself. </p> <p>What would/did you pay for stockings? </p>
