Need some ideas - so what would you like/wish for this year?

Every year I buy DP a few gifts that I'd put a lot of thought into but I'd always get nothing, so this year we're not doing presents. But if we were....

Books

Diary

Voucher for new underwear

And if I was feeling really lucky, a lovely watch Grin

Dh and I have set a limit of £20 each this year as we are planning a trip to Disneyland Paris and perhaps another baby in the new year. I'd like a new Kindle, but I'll settle for some nice bath stuff Smile

Wenglish · 15/08/2015 20:49

Well now I need the illustrated Harry Potter!
White company candle and Noir perfume.
White company cashmere
Boden jumper
A teepee
New mugs

A Barbour coat in olive would be great.

We've decided this year to do the "joint" present. We're buying a new television as ours is dodgy thanks to DC getting it wet!

Will probably also ask for Yankee melts, lush stuff, boots vouchers, books.

MoriartyIsMyAngel · 15/08/2015 22:06

Some Laura Mercier honey bath stuff (if I can find it, lately all I've seen is the coconut stuff...), an iPad Mini, and a decent pair of winter boots.

acsec · 15/08/2015 22:11

I actually do want things this year!

Towelling dressing gown
Preserving pan
The Rise of the Tomb Raider on XBox 360

I will be a happy bunny then ????

maplepecanpie · 16/08/2015 13:50

Dita Von Teese's new book.
Gift cards for a couple of online clothes shops.

WaitingForEgg · 16/08/2015 13:51

A safe delivery :) I'm due 18th Dec with first

JiltedJohnsJulie · 16/08/2015 14:53

Ah waiting that's lovely. Think you should ask Santa for something nice to eat, something to watch and something to read Smile

Methe · 16/08/2015 14:55

A Phillips lumea:)

I don't think I'm likely to get much else tbh!

SteveBrucesNose · 16/08/2015 15:09

A new laptop bag. Mine is battered and bruised now - got it 7 Christmases ago.

I've seen one I really want. Really really want. However, he'll want to think he's picked it, so I might do the usual trick of briefing my best mate, getting her to tell her husband, and sending the men off shopping together. Last year it got us both the handbags we wanted, along with a few hours peace when they pretended to spend ages shopping and ended up down the pub

Happy36 · 16/08/2015 15:18

5 years ago I asked for a nice nightie I'd seen in M&S and the Mad Men box set. I still kind of want them.

Other than that, a refill of my usual skincare products and perfume, a Longchamp le pliage (black), Air Max, a Cadbury's selection box and Clipper hot chocolate powder.

BenguinsMummy · 16/08/2015 15:41

Craft stuff, hubby brought me a sizzix big shot last year so I'm still collecting dies.... 1 by 1... Lol :D

WaitingForEgg · 16/08/2015 18:35

Oh and some Jo Malone... can't be totally selfless Wink

Elsashmelsa · 17/08/2015 14:15

DH and I are very different when it comes to Xmas. He doesn't want anything apart from money to renew his gym membership, I on the other hand want lots of little things.

Nice PJs (Saltrock PJ bottoms are lovely and long and cosy)
Bomb Cosmetic bath smellies (lovely)
Yankee Candles
Chocolates
DVDs (this year Pitch Perfect 2 and this years' Broadchurch Series 2)
Silver Jewellery (from a lovely little local shop)

That'll probably be it for this year.

Last year DH took it to the extreme. I like nice warm socks (I always have cold feet...) and smellies. He bought me 12 - yes 12 pairs of socks and loads of smellies. I think he was trying to make a point. So I'm not asking for socks this year.

Kelly281 · 17/08/2015 18:34

I'd like tickets from DP for the theatre, new cosy pyjamas and restaurant vouchers from my parents.

Lovelydiscusfish · 17/08/2015 22:18

I'd like a sewing machine suitable for beginners.

tropicalphilosophical · 18/08/2015 08:02

Tiffany bracelet,Yankee candle,new converse,Swarovski earrings and lots of bath stuff Christmas list so far it'll get bigger don't worry Grin

Passamaquoddy · 18/08/2015 08:07

A jack Russell.
I know they are 'not just for Christmas' but I love my ddog (who could do with a companion) and a JRT would be very very well looked after and loved by me

RiverTam · 18/08/2015 08:13

Hobbit Battle of the Five Armies extended edition. Mmmm, more Thorin and more Thranduil.

That's it. I hate having to think of stuff.

Passamaquoddy · 18/08/2015 08:13

Oh, and some Coco Chanel

Frumpplump · 18/08/2015 10:52

Pyjamas
Cola cubes
Lush stuff
Soap & glory set
Dc2 to be on time (due a week before Christmas)

Crutchlow35 · 18/08/2015 17:00

Nothing for me but we are going to Disneyland in Paris in November so I will have some spending money there. I'd much rather have some lovely Christmas decorations than gifts on the day.
