NC Mall Stocking Stufftacular

What is the "Stocking Stufftacular"?
First launched in December, 2009, Neopets has a NC Mall winter activity called Stocking Stufftacular.
Buy your ticket and hang your stocking(s), and you'll get some fun items!
How do I participate?
Buy tickets at the NC Mall. There are a total of 25 stockings for the year.
You can apply up to 5 stockings on each day (according to the FAQ) from the morning of December 8 until the morning of January 1.
You can purchase tickets in different amounts, but the more stockings in your pack, the sooner you need to purchase your ticket!
You may also participate in Stocking Stufftacular on side accounts. For more information, see the FAQ below.

How do I hang my stockings?
After purchasing your ticket at the NC Mall,
go to your inventory and activate your ticket.
Then visit the Stocking Stufftacular page to hang your stockings.
You can choose where on the page to hang each stocking.
If you hang your stocking(s) before 11:59 PM NST, they should be filled by 5:00 AM NST the following morning.
The first stockings will be filled between 11:59 PM NST on December 7, 2010 and 5:00 AM NST on December 8, 2010.
This activity ends at 11:59 PM NST on December 31, 2010. Stocking tickets purchased during 2010 must be used during 2010; they will not work in future years.

What is in the stockings?
That's the surprise, isn't it? The contents are described as "exclusive NC item prizes", so we expect they will not be items that are regularly available for sale in the NC Mall.
See the chart below for stocking contents discovered so far.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Stocking Stufftacular?
The Stocking Stufftacular is an NC Mall event available during the month of December. Visit the NC Mall to purchase Stocking Packs. Take your stockings to the Stocking Stufftacular page to hang them on the days of your choice, and then wait for your stockings to be stuffed with exclusive NC item prizes! Stockings must be hung by 11:59 p.m. NST each day, beginning December 7th. Stockings will be filled at 5:00 a.m. NST the next morning, starting on December 8th.
I've hung my stockings but haven't received any prizes. What's going on?
You will receive your exclusive NC item prize the morning after the day you hang your stocking. You can hang your stockings in advance of the day each prize will be given out, but you won't actually receive your prizes until the morning after the specific day on which you've hung your stocking.
Can I hang more than one stocking per day?
Yes! You can hang up to five stockings on each day of the event. Just click on the stocking space to keep hanging. The pop-up you receive while hanging stockings will let you know how many stockings you have hung on that day. Having multiple stockings hung on one day will give you multiples (up to five) of the item for that day. You will not get different items for hanging multiple stockings on a single day.
How long will this event run?
You can purchase Stocking Packs during the pre-sale, December 1st - 7th. Starting December 7th, make sure your stockings are hung to begin receiving your exclusive NC item prizes. The event will run from December 1st - 31st, and prizes will be given out December 7th - 31st.
How do I purchase Stocking Packs?
Visit the NC Mall to purchase stockings in packs of 1, 5, 10, and 25.
I've purchased stockings but I can't hang them.
Make sure that you have activated the Stocking Packs in your Inventory. Once you have activated your Stocking Pack, visit the Stocking Stufftacular page. Click on the space below the hook where you would like to hang your stocking and verify your selection. Remember, once your stocking is hung, it cannot be moved!
Can I move my stocking to a different day once I've hung it?
No. Once a stocking has been hung on a specific day, it cannot be moved.
How do I know that my stocking was hung on the correct day?
Once you have verified the day that you would like to hang your stocking, a purple stocking will appear. After the day has passed and an item prize is granted, the purple stocking will change to a filled blue stocking.
There is a yellow glow around one of my purple stockings. What does that mean?
The yellow glow indicates which day it is in the event. The stocking with the yellow glow around it will be filled the next morning, if you have a stocking hung for that day.
There is a number on my stocking. What does it mean?
The number on a stocking represents how many stockings you have hung on that particular day. You can hang a maximum of five stockings each day, if you choose.
Can I hang stockings on days that have passed?
No. Stockings can only be hung until 11:59pm NST on the day before a stocking is filled. Once that timeframe has passed, you will not be able to receive a prize for the following day.
Can I purchase Stocking Packs and participate in the Stocking Stufftacular on my side accounts?
Yes. Since this is an NC Mall-only event, you can visit on your side accounts. Remember, though, you are only allowed (up to) five accounts total.
