What's in your pockets? It is undoubtedly one of the most memorable moments in The Hobbit.
I have definitely tried this week's tip 100% at the table. If my memory serves me correctly, I think you could find some tables with mundane items to fill NPC pockets in an old Dragon magazine.
As I sometimes use it myself, it's with little nods to my players: the minion on duty smokes his favorite brand of cigarettes or carries that chocolate bar he would never say no to.

It really makes the NPC feel more "Human" especially if you have that one player that feels guilty because "Wait, the guard had a kid..."
