Mainly a new compost bin. The 3 we have cannot keep up with demand. Also some other zero waste items. Maybe some gift cards. what else zero waste are you looking at? I just bought waxed fabric to wrap food in. At Trader Joe’s. |

I’ve bought myself a Louis Vuitton Mini pochette to go into a Vintage ( pre 80s ) bag I was given a month ago . I’ve wanted a Mini pochette forever, and I bought it myself out of my pension lump sum ( the rest is going on the house, my kids and grandson ). It’s wrapped up on top of the LV Christmas wrapping and I have to wait to make it even more special . Did you get Monogram, Azur or Ebene? I have an Azur one and she’s adorable! Mono to match the vintage bag. I love all three prints tbh and would happily have them all if funds allowed! I love the DA and would love a crossbody in DA for the summer . |

Those are fun. I have all white dishes, so a few bowls would look great with what I have. |

DH and my Christmas gift to each other every single year has been travel. I have zero idea what we’re doing this year. We tend to buy what we want as we want it so I have no clue what hat we are going to do.

There's this new frame out that pairs with the 1SE app that will play them. I've been doing 1 second everyday for 5 or 6 years now so this would be a great way to watch them more often. I do this too. What’s the frame? |

With DH and my Dad gone, I don't have anyone who buys me gifts. My sister will knit me something. I'm getting work done on my house at some point, that will have to be my gift to myself. That sucks I’m sorry. Not the same thing, but DH is a bad gift giver so I started getting myself a few gifts for Christmas. I would buy myself 2-3 books I’d really been looking forward to and some new pyjamas and wrap them up really nicely as a treat to myself. I would do it enough in advance it felt more special if that makes sense. Maybe that’s something you could do for yourself? |

I have no idea what I want. I usually get myself a few things but this year I’m drawing a blank.

I would like one of the Boos cutting boards that many of the chefs on the Food Network use. That’s really all that I want.

Some things I would like: New towels since I can’t seem to get the smell out of the current ones I hope I quoted this right. Have you tried vinegar to get the smell out of your towels? I put it in the prewash slot and then do a prewash setting. I use a cup or so. Seems to get that musty smell out. Also works like a charm on my 20 year old son's smelly sweaty t shirts. |

Soma pajamas and other assorted loungewear. That’s pretty much what I wear all day unless I make a quick trip to the store.

I want gift cards for my favorite restaurants and stores.
Money has been tight this past year due to a shut down, then limited work hours. I haven't been able to buy any "wants" only "needs".

I just bought waxed fabric to wrap food in. At Trader Joe’s. Slight hijack I've been looking at these for things like cheese but wonder if they'd get too messy. What are you using them for? |

You wash them in cool, soapy water. I use them for anything that isn't hot - definitely cheese, sandwiches, wrapping fruit for lunches, covering bowls before putting them in the fridge. I sew side seams in some to put snacks in like pretzels and grapes. |

I said I didn’t want anything, but I’ve now decided that I would enjoy a new phone to replace my iPhone. It needs to be large screen and definitely not another Apple. I’m done with supporting applecrap. I am not in a good mood. I left the house for one hour today and my stupid phone died because of the Covid tracking app.

I want one of those butt machines: DB MethodSince I haven't actually asked for it, I'm pretty sure I won't get it! At 55 I probably care too much about the state of my a$$. |

I want slip on slippers - are there certain Ugg slippers peas recommend? I just learned this year that you can purchase replacement insoles for your UGG slippers. Only $20 on Amazon. It's a good option if you feel like the exterior of the slipper is ok, but maybe the inside isn't as clean or cushy as you would like. You can also put them in other shoes, like rainboots, to make them more comfy. UGG insoles@~summer~ I got these slippers at an UGG outlet. They must be a discontinued style. If you can find them, I recommend them. UGG scallop slippersI had heard really good things about the Ansley model @mikkilynn recommended, but they felt too snug when I tried them on. |

My daughter sells Pure Romance and I asked her to tell DH I want bamboo pajamas they carry.
I also asked for Dolce and Gabbana Light Blue.
DH and I decided to replace the ten year old 36” TV in the living room with a bigger TV. Both of us are having problems clearly seeing the screen. I hate wearing my glasses around the house, so it’s time to go bigger.

I asked for that Phive light for my scrapbook table. The little Ott just isn't cutting it. Some people on the scrapbooking board raved about it, so I am excited!! www.amazon.com/PHIVE-Architect-Bright-Drafting-Brightness/dp/B078N2HS5D?th=1Other than that, just socks (some reason I hate buying myself socks) and pj pants. ETA I also bought myself Midnight Sun at Target, hardcover were on sale for 13 dollars. Don't know if that is because it is so terrible, but I'll read it anyway, lol. I wrapped it up so I could not peek! The waitlist at my library is 39 people for 1 book! |

DH and I got new ipads - he never had one, and mine had no space for updates or apps.
I also bought a new apple watch and will give DS my old one.
My birthday is in Feb, so I also look for overflow gifts at this time, if I don;t get it at Christmas, I ask for it 6 weeks later! LOL
