    (Or Hanukah, or your respective holiday)?

    My family does a gift exchange (all the adults give one other person a gift, kids are fair game) and we send a "wish list" of a few ideas in November. I have no clue what I'd like this year. Usually when I want something, I just get it. Any creative ideas out there? Things you have found that you can't life without and you think everyone should have?

    Stocking Stuffer ideas are welcome too (we also fill one person's stocking)

    I want jewelry cleaner and the serving spoons to go with our silverware.  They were in-store only from pottery barn, and don't show up on the internet registry (grrr).  I'm sure I'll want more, but it's rather early for me still!

    I would LOVE if J showed up here to surprise me. BUT I know that's not going to happen, so I'm not really even letting myself dream.

    I didn't grow up in much of a gift giving family, so gifts are usually kind of weird for me. I'd love a shiny diamond this year though. :)

    or a cell phone, or a night out dancing, or really anything at all. :)

    Since we're moving in the spring and pretty much have nothing, no cookware, serverware, plates, or anything essential except for two bedroom sets, we're hoping if any one gets us things its essentials off our registry. Other than that I'd love a new computer, a new camera, and some fun clothes.

    Money! That sounds horrible, but I'm a broke college student, and missing the "extras" like theraputic shopping trips. Now every time I buy clothes it's because I absolutely have to, and there's always the guilt/worry of will I be able to make a bill payment on time? when I buy something new.

    these are great.. keep them coming! I guess I should be a little more clear and I mean actual gifts that siblings/parents could give me - NOT from my FI. We usually spend no more than 200/250 each.

    For example, last year I had my oldest sister and got her an iPod docking station, a car adaptor for her new iPod and the SATC movie. My other sister had me and she got me some placemats and apron that I wanted plus a gift card and beer mugs (engraved with my FI and my initials). We each gave one another a letterpress calendar in our stockings.

    The main thing I want is scrabooking supplies. I want to start work on our wedding scrapbook and I don't have much of anything, I need punches and paper.

    I want...

    1. A Croc hair straightener.... they sell them on Overstock.com   My friend from south Florida has one, and they are amaaazing even in the humidity down there!

    2. Black Uggs.    I'm behind the times on this one, I know.

    3. A nice computer chair.  I have a nice desk, nice computer... but I'm sitting here on a folding chair!

    Annnnd I probably won't actually ask for any of these because they're all expensive. lol
