Obviously we have a lot of threads regarding buying gifts and getting ideas for other people, I was just wondering if anyones considered what you want for yourself for xmas?

I'm likely going to ask my OH for a disney villains puzzle and a dvd of the movie Robin and Marian (it has Sean Connery and audrey Hepburn in it). The rest is up to him but tempted to ask for little stocking filler kind of stuff rather than a big present with remaining budget x

First Christmas with longed for baby. We are going to buy ourselves the big Hotel Chocolat wreath box (assuming it’s available) and stay home in pjs watching Christmas films, eating and drinking what we want. Normally we are driving all over and staying in a characterless hotel. I’m sure it won’t be as idyllic as I imagine but still looking forward to it 😄

No

Although I really like the sound of this clementine gin ....

@Littlegoth sounds perfect. I’m hoping we can stay at home with the kids this year on Christmas Day.

A DNA testing kit

@OrangeGinLemonFanta

Caffeine Eye Cream from the Inkey List, a pretty medium impact sports bra and an older model FitBit Versa. I always want posh citrussy bubble bath and scented candles too.

I'm struggling to stop myself buying the Funko Marvel advent calendar.

I've just popped the advent calendar in my basket for teenage DS thank you

@Roselilly36 what you doing in the Christmas board then? 🎅🏽

Hmm, I might ask for DNA testing kit. Any recommendations?

Also recommendations for cheese subscriptions that don't include stinky cheese Grin

I'd like a Seasalt Janelle coat. Or a North Face arctic parka.

I have a Landsend down long coat that's great for cold, dry days and lightweight.

I have a Seasalt tincloth waterproof coat which is amazing on wet and windy but mild days.

BUT I need a hybrid of the two. I hate being cold and wet!

First baby due mid December, so basically a load of comfy pjs/loungewear, bath oils & salts, some skincare pamper bits, chocolate & an electric toothbrush!

Maybe some vouchers to use later next year for new clothes!

A new jewellery box.
Moshulu slippers
Warm brushed cotton PJs
Godiva chocolates.

For our house purchase to complete before Christmas and our divorces to finalise, I don't need more stuff (unfortunately these are in our hands)

wellerhugs5 · 26/08/2020 19:57

Mahabis. I won't splurge for them myself so I'll ask hubby Smile

Some classic silver studs.
A really good dressing gown from somewhere naice. My last high street branded one looked tatty by new year.
A pair of wellies.
A bottle of Angel Nova I think this year.

The Sims 4 Discover University. Won't get so might have to treat myself. Xmas Grin

Magissa · 26/08/2020 23:12

@nc600 @greygardens88 I have done 23andme as well as ancestry. I prefer 23andme as it seems more in depth. Also the health aspect is really interesting.

nc600 · 26/08/2020 23:52

Thank you. I'll take a look!

Yes, but it’s expensive - a Serious Readers floor lamp, for crafts as well as reading.

Shall tell dh not to get me anything else - except for chocolates of course.🐷

DisgruntledGuineaPig · 27/08/2020 13:12

Ooh this is a lovely thread! I'm going to ask for a card holder/small purse.

I might ask for a toiletries bag that isn't just one of the ones you get from "a gift for you" at a make up counter.

Nice socks.
