My oh has started a Amazon wish list for Xmas I thought it was a good idea but can't think of a single thing to put on it if I did one for myself, I've never really had money so not used to treating myself i tend to buy things I need rather than want, the only thing I could think of was a book I wanted but oh surprised me with it last week, oh and eldest ds say I'm hard to buy for because I never want anything so I'm looking for ideas and suggestions.

Almost nothing you could buy from Amazon. A winter outfit, a meal out.

But I'll settle for a handful of lovely books, some nice lotions and potions, a white waffle dressing gown or some salted pistachios.

My list is for practical things that'll mean we can save money to get what we want.

A bigger freezer (romantic).
A voucher for haircuts/colours from my chosen hair dresser.
A shopping trip with a budget.
Cinema/meal out vouchers for date nights.

We need exciting things like sheets, towels, dishes, new mugs, baking trays etc.

APocketfulOfStars · 30/10/2017 12:31

I'd like lots of books (and the time to read them!) And/or a new kindle
I really want a laminator and plastic sheets but an refusing to let myself put it on my list.
A fun, smart winter outfit (dress and heels) and somewhere to wear it.
Other than that....I'm abroad, so marmite, baileys, teabags, crumpets and other such luxuries that are expensive over here!

I'd be happy with a stocking full of the above!

From my husband I would like a pair of pyjamas and voucher for boots. Then on Christmas Day I can sit in my new pyjamas and spend the voucher in the Boots sale. I will buying all the perfume that I like that is normally stupidly over priced. This way I get what I want rather than my husband attempting to remember what I like and buying Cat piss smelling perfume.
