Anyone here know yet what YOU want for Christmas?
I have a few things i'd like to have, but nothing that I would desperately want.
The kids wants this year are simple...socks, a new barbie, a hotwheels track, a new game. Nothing big, which is great considering.
Hubby would like new underwear, lol. Gotta love him and new socks.
I'd like socks too. Guess were a family of frozen feet, huh??
I do have some secret wishes though. mine are all books.

I want the same as last year, heres how it goes. My birthday is in December, for my birthday DH will go to Shoppers Drug Mart and buy a sample pack of ten perfumes for $70.00, inside the sample pack is a coupon worth $70.00 which he uses to buy my perfume for christmas. This way he is only spending approx. $35.00 for each of my presents which is in our budget and makes me very happy!

I would like an I-Pod nano as well or a new winter coat. Most likely neither of those will happen

I want a new kitchen, but I don't think I was THAT good of a girl this year!!

Most years, I get gift certificates to gardening centers and my second-favourite used book store (my favourite being Moe's in Berkeley, but it is too far of a drive to be practical), and that suits me just fine.
Hear that Santa? You up there?

For Christmas, I would like to be in a new home.....which is in the works. Other than that, I would like some Victoria Secret perfume. I am almost out. AND socks are always nice too!

I wouldn't mind a water-bath canner and a food processor. I had debated asking for a standing food mixer but they're at least $300.

Nothing material really.
I want this economy to get back to some kind of normalcy.
I want food/gas/utility prices to go down.
That would be enough for me." May we never let the things we can’t have or don’t have or shouldn’t have spoil our enjoyment of the things we do have and can have. As we value our happiness, let us not forget it. One of the greatest lessons in life is learning to be happy without the things we cannot or should not have."

I am having a hard time answering this question anytime someone asks me what I want. I can't think of a lot that I want off the top of my head and I have everything I need and then some.
A couple of the things I have come up with are:
Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian DVD
Chronotrigger for the Nintendo DS
Terminator Sarah Connor Chronicles Season 1 DVD
Where the Wild Things Are T-Shirt
New purse/wallet
brown heels
jeans
sunglasses
Nothing big....but it gives Zac and the family some ideas.McD

I've been trying to come up with ideas and so far, I've only come up with a new coat. I'm nervous about dh picking it out, though. I'm really picky about what I wear. I need to look through sale ads and cut out photos.
I really want an aerogarden, but even the sale price is $50 more than what we have budgeted for our Christmas gifts.

Ok, here's what I really, really want and I've wanted them for along time.
Under counter lights in the kitchen so I can see what I'm cooking after 5pm.
Two magnetic strips to hold my beloved cutlery set. Then I can pitch the box they came in.
How much you want to bet that I'm going to end up buying them for myself?
