I've been asked by DH and DCs for a mini Christmas list for me. Don't want to put gifts on that are too £££, but also too exhausted to think. What are you asking for this year?

Always ask for (and get) books, nice bath products and new PJs. Finally caved and asked DH for a Kindle this year. Sick of lugging books on my commute.

Pretty specific but new set of measuring spoons and a new Pyrex jug. (have bought theatre tickets for a weekend in London as main present to each other so have suggested a couple of cheap necessities for the kids to buy me).

I held from a kindle for so long - and love mine

I’m getting a new watch, mini perfume set, fluffy socks and new pjs. All chosen by me.

Last year I asked for snag tights as I thought they were expensive but I wanted pairs that fit. DH bought me several pairs, and I am so pleased to wear properly fitting ones. Not exciting, but oh so useful. We had a weekend away together last year too.

Books, if you’re a reader!

I always ask for nice soaps but never get them.
I love my Turtle Dove wrist warmers, I wear them for wfh
Socks
Knickers
Pyjamas
Theatre tickets or vouchers
Perfume
Small gold stud earrings
Set of red wine glasses
Silicone kitchen utensils

MIL always gives me a voucher and I love sitting with a drink on boxing night and spending it. The stuff usually arrives before new year too so I often buy a new outfit for NYE.

Wild deodorant refills
Socks/pants
Shoes
Smelly gift set

Will get none of the above but one can dream! Loki

I've bought myself a beauty box from boots, a new perfume, gold necklace, some body oil.

EverySporkIsSacred · 16/12/2023 09:01

Books (a small list of ones I'd like including Why Mummy Drinks at Christmas)
New gardening gloves
Bodyshop body butter
Lush sticky date shower gel
Toblerone
Chocolate brazils
Bottle of Bailey's
Compact mirror
Uniq One Revlon leave in conditioner
Hardback A5 journal/notebook
Slipper boots
Novelty ankle socks (the more garish the better)

I have bought myself a few of these already as DH and I don't really exchange gifts.

Wanttobeok · 16/12/2023 09:07

I haven't asked for anything but have dropped a few hints (I like surprises)

A heated throw
A new dance bag
A framed photo from our Wedding
A blackboard for the kitchen wall
