What would you do?
So H was talking to MIL the other day, and she told him that we need to think of something that we want for Christmas that is $1000- $1500.
Wtf??? We don't own our house, so we don't need major appliances. We just had the wedding, so we have EVERYthing we want/ need housewares related (including a new tv/ sound system). We are at a loss... And she made it very clear that she doesn't want to get several smaller things, she wants to get one big thing. And H says he feels weird saying we want gift cards.
Is there something we're not thinking of??
Re: What would you do?
I agree with this and to add what about a new BBQ, or seasons tickets to a sporting event or a weekend away at some fancy resort (either local or not...), Or a contribution to a "baby/future home or rrsp" fund?

I WISH she would just give us a check, but H doesn't feel comfortable with asking for money/ gift cards.
And we got a new couch less than a year ago, and we got a really nice mattress when we moved into the house 3 years ago- Nothing really needs to be replaced.
I just feel like she is going to spend a wad of cash on something we really don't want or need- It feels like such a waste to me
Hmm....interesting deleima. Not sure I've ever heard of anyone in this situation before! I guess if she is wanting you to tell her what you want...tell her. If you want to just put it into savings for a down payment on a house someday or future child, tell her that is what you would like to do with it. I bet she would understand more than you think.
If not....vacay anyone?
