Christmas gifts (I know its early)

What are you girls wanting for Christmas this year.  I know its early to think about this but my mom asked me what I was wanting.  SO now she has got me to thinking.  I always try to give ideas.  PLUS I give my In-Laws ideas b/c If I don't I end up with stuff I don't care for :)

I start shopping in September and October too b/c I have alot of people to buy for.  

So far my list includes a Camcorder, gift cards for Maternity clothes, and if I buy a new bedroom suite I might ask for sheets or my comforter set.

Re: Christmas gifts (I know its early)

  • I really really want to be pregnant by then, but that is in God's hands.

    I would like a new laptop.  Other than that, I'm not really sure.  

    I have started thinking about Christmas as well.  It'll be here before we know it. :)

  • I never know what I want, so I always just say "get me a gift card for xyz store".  I'm always happy with GCs. 
    Siggy coming soon....
  • We usually do gift cards.  I just hate doing all gift cards b/c it feels like we are just exchanging money :)

    I feel the same way.  However when you really don't know what to get people then I guess that is the best bet.  

    I still have not one, not two, but three gift cards to Victoria Secrets from last Christmas.  

  • i want a lens for our camera (won't be asking for it though) and that cute little bowling bag carrier for our wii. however, my birthday is in november so i have no idea what else to ask for besides things off our registry, lol.

    i've started planning christmas gifts for people as of last week. i got some magazine's in the mail that had some interesting stuff so i'm going from that and just other random things.

  • I want a small fondue pot.  I think that i something I would enjoy.  I'd also like one of those bath wrap things (like a towel with straps you wear). 
  • I REALLY would like a nice digital camera to take better photos with.. like the Nikon D60 or D40.

  • Well, I always just ask for gift cards because that seems like an easy out to me if I can't think of anything, which is usually the case.

    There are, however, a few big gifts I have in mind.  Mainly a coffee maker, because I would like to start brewing coffee in the mornings.

    Siggy coming soon....
  • I want a new phone, I'm liking the new NV and I do want a really nice digital camera. I have a good everyday Sony Cybershot but I want to do some more serious photography and this camera won't cut it. LOL. I might even give in to my dream of doing photography as a business if I can get the right equipment in my hot little hands. I also want a tiny little laptop that will fit in my purse. I've seen the Dell mini and it's cute, like 8". OK, I'm a gadget freak, I confess.
  • Ya'll have some good ideas.

    Last year my MIL and FIL got me a kitchen aid mixer and it was one of my favorite gifts.  I have used that thing and LOVE IT!!!!!

    A camera is a great gift.  We all have good cameras as of now though.

    Greeneyz7-----my FIL and BIL are gadget freaks so bring on the ideas.  I got to where I was getting my BIL gift cards to Comp USA or Best Buy.

     

  • that's a good question. you know i just can't believe how quickly this yr has passed. i can't believe xmas is right around the corner - yikes!

    i haven't thought about it that much. i always love gift cards. since we moved into our house, we could really use stuff for the house. we just ordered bedrm furniture so we will definitely need nice sheets for it. and we need some bath mats for our bthrm.

    i haven't even started thinking about what to get my family. now i think i'm going to have a panic attack - lol. ;)

  • Tippykins....sorry that my post has got you in panic mode.  :)

    I am a huge planner so I always start buying early.  I always have.  DH on the other hand could go out December 24 and buy his stuff.

  • i have no idea what i want....maybe some gc's for stamping stuff (it is not cheap)....maybe a craft room built in my basement for mmmmeee!!! LOL i don't know...

    i do know that dh and i will probably do a little shopping starting in october....

  • imageAnniemp86:

  • Ok! I'll be over in 2 hours ;)

    No really... We should seriously set something up soon!

    If they are true freaks they probably already have a GPS system...I love mine. I'm directionally challenged and so is my son. Since he lives in Atlanta, and once got lost in a very dangerous part of town, I thought getting him this gadget was a very good decision and it was. He uses his all the time and I use mine a lot! It helps calm me when I have it with me since I've gotten lost a lot in my life. My husband who is not a gadget freak, saw how mine worked and got his own. He has a Garmin, I have a Magellan. I think I prefer his. :( but I do LOVE mine.

  • dh and i both want a gps system, new camera, wii, and camcorder.  i myself want a jewelry cleaner and a garment steamer......i hate ironing.

  • I started Christmas shopping last month!  My Christmas List includes gift cards for Ann Taylor Loft, Old Navy, Banana Republic, Starbuck's, and iTunes.  I only have it made up now because it's got the same things as my Birthday List.
  • I am wanting a set of the Rachel Ray hard anodized cookware!  I have wanted it for a while....and it is on sale right now :)

    I also would like this new North Face jacket that I am in love with :)

    I am still at a loss on what to get my DH!  He needs to make me a list pronto!
