Once upon a time, everything at Five Below was, well, priced below $5. Now, due to inflationary pressures and an expansion into higher-ticket items, there are many items over $5. Luckily, there are still lots of options below the $5, and that can even fit in a stocking. In fact, among all the stores, Five Below is one of the best for stocking-stuffer items, with so many options for everyone in the family. I made a trip to my local store this week and found so many fun options. Here are the 11 best new Five Below stocking stuffers I just found in stores.
