Looking for inspiration!

A thermos cup for my tea when I’m on fieldwork.

goose1964 · 12/12/2018 20:45

Haven't a clue, people keep asking

FurForksSake · 12/12/2018 20:46

A ceramics course.

Lisabel · 13/12/2018 01:37

A DSLR camera, a notebook and water resistant running shoes!

Lazybonita · 13/12/2018 12:54

A corgi puppy...but I’m not getting one. I think I’m getting nice country boots and I have sent DH a list of things I would be happy to receive, this includes perfume, posh body wash, a new purse, nice scarf, ugg boots, voucher for a night in a nice hotel for us both.

CaptainCarp · 13/12/2018 12:55

A house deposit Grin definitely not getting that though! I've struggled to think of anything this year.

MyNameIsNotSteven · 13/12/2018 18:17

I have reached peak 'stuff' so there's nothing I really want. I've bought a going out jacket for the festive period so that can be wrapped up for all I care.

MinisterforCheekyFuckery · 13/12/2018 18:20

I would love a GHD hairdryer...not going to happen though. I'm on maternity leave so DH and I have agreed to be more restrained than usual on what we spend on each other and focus on the DC.

Blondie1993 · 13/12/2018 18:27

Alien perfume! No one ever buys me it though because they think it’s a boring present but it’s my absolute favourite and I feel a bit guilty if I buy it myself!

GrumpyOldMare · 13/12/2018 18:29

A kindle paperwhite (which my son has bought me)
A camera - which I will buy myself next Friday,and wrap to open on the day.

OComeAllYeFaithful · 13/12/2018 18:33

A new coat, a lightweight brolly and a new pair of slippers. Knowing what DH is like, I am probably getting them. I’ve also asked for either a Chilly bottle or a lovely ball of yarn (I crochet).

Polkapjs · 13/12/2018 20:37

I would love a going out jacket too!

FenellasRedVelvetDress · 13/12/2018 20:40

Picture frames - different style ones- to house some beautiful pictures I want going up my stairs.
A candle or two.
Some new slippers
Face wipes
Bubble bath
A good book
And a new Essie nail varnish for my Essie collection!

GoldenBuns · 13/12/2018 20:50

A Roberts Revival radio with Bluetooth.
Books
Perfume
Something nice to wear.

I'll be getting the top two, but not the others as the radio is very pricey. I'm very happy with that!

Funnyface1 · 14/12/2018 12:08

A new car. But I'll be getting socks and pajamas.

MiraculousMarinette · 14/12/2018 13:37

Already mentioned it on an identical thread a couple of weeks ago but stuff-wise I want a diamond painting kit, zentangle drawing kit, a jigsaw and nice cosy pjs. Won't be getting any of it though as all money got spent on the child! Grin
Got myself a set of Philip Pullman books for £5 off eBay so looking forward to reading them over Christmas break Smile

Xmasbaby11 · 14/12/2018 13:41

Stationery - I get through loads!

Crossover white stuff handbag (all mine are massive!)

Books

I can't afford to buy myself a lot so I haven't reached peak stuff - there's always something like a swimsuit or shoes that I need.

Nothing really. He's been asking me for a list but I don't need anything.

So far asked for a north face coat to wear when walking the dogs and that's it 🤷🏽‍♀️

MamaDane · 14/12/2018 14:04

A bfp Blush
Other than that, a microwave, bedding, an exercise bike, gift certificate for a date night for my partner and I. Not much else. I'm quite content with what I have.

Mrsmumof3 · 14/12/2018 14:21

A new house

NorthEndGal · 14/12/2018 14:29

My wish list is a bit eclectic this year
Laser cut rolling pin
Dala horse ornaments
Snow pants with a bib
Tattoos
Ski boots
Chain saw
A really nice lipstick

BarbedBloom · 14/12/2018 15:54

I would love a chrome book, but more realistically some nice jewellery, a few books for my collection (fairy tales from round the world) and a new handbag. I have no idea what I will get as me and DH surprise each other.

Girlicorne · 14/12/2018 21:40

A Dyson hairdryer!! But I would go mad if DH spent £300 on me, we could all have Merlin annual passes for not much more!!! I m not sure if its because my kids are older now (9 and 11) but all three santas we have seen so far this year have asked me what I want as well as the kids!!!

Spectrum make up brushes.
