Christmas Lists

My MIL wants a list of "small stuff" as she put it.  (They got us a Wii already, but now she wants to get each of us a few small things... Greg is having a REALLY tough time because everything he wants is EXPENSIVE.  His list was a Wii, a GPS, and something else that's like $100+!)

I've got some cooking stuff on there (mostly Pampered Chef), but I'd like to come up with some non-PC stuff.  Any thoughts/suggestions?

What's on your list?

Re: Christmas Lists

  • I've got some wii games, gift card to bed bath and beyond, new cooking utensils, some clothes, nice pair of gloves, larger crockpot

  • This isn't my list but somethings you can put on there: Slippers, cute socks/tights, hand lotion, candles.

    For Greg: belt (for work or dress), slippers, sport team gear, gloves, ummmm gift card to block buster to rent video games.  A subscription to that on-line game rental place ( I can't think of the name, it's like Netflix but for video games)

  • I don't even know where to begin on my list.  I want the new Super mario brothers game for my wii.  A new iPod (A nano - it's way too hard to run with my regular video iPod).  New suits (mom takes care of that for me each christmas). 

    Other than that...I know there are tons of things I want but I can't think of them.

    I really need to start shopping for MH.  He's going to be so HARD this year.

  • Mandy, do you guys have an entertainment center with more than a tv and dvd player? We have a ton of equipment and I got DH one of those smart universal remotes.  You have to use your computer to set it up and say you wanted to watch a dvd, you press one button and everything required to turn on to watch the DVD, turns on.

  • Mel: that's a really good idea.  We have our TV, cable box and sound system running off of one remote but our DVD is not on that remote (it's just the cable box remote actually).  The one you just sent will work the PS3 too?  That's pretty cool.  MH would probably like that!

  • Unfortunately, it doesn't work with the PS3.  There is a special adapter.

    Some of the newer more expensive models may work with it but I'm not sure.  We have a separate remote for the PS3, so it's not too big of a deal.

  • I saw the adapter thing.  I think I would have to get that too.  It's not that bad though (for the price, less than $200 for the adapter and remote).  I think I'll add that to his pile of things.

  • I may add it too now.  I really, really hate the remote we have for the PS3 when it comes ot watching movies. The damn thing is so confusing to me.  Hopefully having a standard remote will make it more simple.

  • Thats my problem all the stuff I want is really expensive. Jeremy got me a kindle. My mom is getting me clothes, I think a quilt, a few DVD's. It's really hard for me to think of stuff i want because I usually just buy stuff when I want it.

  • Do you  have the Sony remote for the PS3?  I hate that thing too.  I still don't know what about 30 of those buttons do!  We've started just using the controller when we watch BluRays instead because it's so confusing.

  • yes we have the sony one.  I just bought the adapter and a magazine subscription to real simple for $5 for myself :o).  I think i'll just tell DH to give the remote to his BIL since I don't need more crap cluttering the room.

  • Smaller things on my list are leather gloves, new slippers and perfume.

    For DH's stocking, I have already gotten hime some boxers, new slippers and shaving gel.  Not sure if that helps or not....
