DH keeps asking what I want but apart from earl grey tea bags and soap I honestly don’t want anything!

I’d absolutely love one of the peloton bikes. DS2 due late December & with 2 under 2 getting to the gym regularly is going to be difficult-but I get really twitchy when I don’t make a class 4-5x a week.
They’re massively over any budget we usually have so I’m not likely to be successful but I have let DH know, just incase he’s feeling generous.

I’d like a bean to cup coffee machine. I’ve been meaning to buy one all year but I don’t have the energy to do the research.
I would love someone (DH, Father Christmas?) to do all the boring research for me.

After a very cold walk yesterday, I’d like some gloves Smile I wanted some last year but ended up buying myself cheap primark ones which ended up with holes in (suprise suprise)

I would really like a Nespresso machine and a Northface jacket in a colour other than black (I've been wearing a black one non-stop in the winter).

Honestly, I would love some delicate expensive jewellery, with pretty diamonds in.

But I won't get that so I've asked for slippers 🤣

@Arrowfanatic That’s not good enough and you really musnt’t put up with it.

As above, set up a wishlist on Amazon and he can pick a few items from the selection. You’ll get something you want but it’s also still a surprise.

Arrowfanatic DH and I literally send each other a list with links and everything. I know it doesn’t sound romantic but that way we get each other exactly what we would like. We don’t spend £££ at all but I’d far rather get him something he would really like / need (we’re also pretty utilitarian with presents, I once got nice towels because that’s what we needed and I was really happy with that) rather than something that was a bit useless.

Would that work for you?

Guerlain insolence perfume
Heated furry blanket

I might need a new kindle though - my current one is getting a bit slow and glitchy.

I already have the Friends Central Perk Lego set tucked away and a Radley bag on the way😊
Would also love Molton Brown eucalyptus, some thermal socks and s9me Emma Bridgwater mugs. I got three a couple of years ago when there was a brilliant offer on and everyone really likes the size and shape of them.
Oh, and lots of Turkish delight!!

@CocoKoko123 It’s Mulberry. Out of stock on their site atm but might be available in their shops.

ninkaninus hope you don't mind me asking but where is that bag from?

@legalseagull This is the one I want (but I also love it in deep amber). I’m supposed to be saving for a Louis Vuitton but I know what’s going to happen - if this goes in the sale after Christmas I will be unable to resist...

What do YOU want for Christmas?
