I got a lot of clothes for people. We are going on vacation and my boyfriend teases that he's going to walk around in a velour suit the whole time, so I got him one of those as part of his gift. I also got him the Iron Gym but I gave it to him already.

Yeah, ThinkGeek is pretty awesome. The shirt, spork, tea, LED candle, and LED magnets all came from there.

My GF did this in years past. (I still haven't got one) They usually seem to be the favorite gifts.

I cannot say as the person receiving things is a member of this board. And she already hunts through stuff, I don't need her finding out what she's getting.

I send that picture via e-mail every year to a bunch of people. Inevitably I get three replies that state that now it feels like Christmas.

One year, a few years ago, I sent out a picture of myself in the same pose. Talk about shock and awe.

It is not "hunting" if the stuff is sitting out in plain sight. And by "in plain sight" I mean wrapped and under the tree...

Isn't everybody?

When you get gifts . . .


What are you GIVING for Christmas? - linzi - 12-24-2008

What, you don't buy and wrap your own gifts, Queenie?!
I've already gotten my "nice" gift...my camera...but a pair of jeans and some desperately needed make up is all I'm opening.

When I was younger and got smart about it, I would carefully unwrap the gift, being careful not to tear the paper or tape and check it out and then rewrap it.

Biff, you need to post that picture of yourself. It'll be your present to us...... :-*


What are you GIVING for Christmas? - mainerliser - 12-24-2008

I got the girls clothes books and games. For the rest of the family, we decided to donate money that we would spend on each other to the American Cancer Society in memory of my Dad who passed away 2 years ago on Dec. 28th from colon cancer. He would not go to the hospital until Christmas was over that year. I miss him, and I like to honor him somehow each Christmas.

Whoops, quick trigger. Apparently he has gotten smart and started styrofoaming everything so as not to shake. That way, "What did you get me?" stops being asked.


What are you GIVING for Christmas? - whatwouldzappasay - 12-25-2008

I got Mr. Wonderful a board game from the 60s called "Feds and Heads" (showcasing the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers, characters from an underground comic in the 60s - yes, I'm an aging hippie, so sue me). Where you get chance cards like "Get busted by the Feds. To save your pitiful hide you rat out everyone you know. Lose 4 ounces and all your friends". Or.."You smoke a joint all the way down to the stub accidentally inhaling it. Go to the Free Clinic". Or, "You are filled with the spirit of love. Give all players one ounce".

I found it. It probably violates proboards' rules so I have to pass.

I want that!!

One word, eBay. That's where I got mine. There are even old playboy magazines that came with the game in it at eBay. Must've been a 'tear-out' affair. I'm sure you can find it. Smile

Oh, I continue to ask. But, he did very, very well this year. A nice combination of things I wanted and things I like. Oddly, no electronics, since "the gift of electronics" has been his thing the last few years. This year, I got jewelry instead 8-)
