I always struggle a bit because I don't want a lot of things and if I do want it there is a good chance I've already bought it.

Still:
A few books
Banana posts for my home theater wiring
A new saw blade
Laser guide for my mitre saw
Crown stops for mitre saw
Steam gift card

I don't really need anything, but if Santa's coming to my house, I'd kind of like this...

Can't hardly justify buying it myself, but that would be a nifty climbing saw. If only I were good enough for Santa to come :^(

Ooooh. Is that the 2511T?

I want one.
Yea, it is. You ever pick one up? It's amazing how small and light it is. I've been looking for ways to justify buying one, but with any honest assessment of needs, I can't. The boss wants some pines removed at the office. If I were to do that, it would be a climbing job, and I could get the saw, but I like the trees there. Not worth taking them down just to get a saw, and if I don't do it, it probably won't get done.

I'm gonna be boring and say there's nothing I've really wanted for the past few years. It's nicer spending time with family than getting stuff, so I just ask for little things like a snowboarding calendar or gift cards.

I have pretty much everything I want or need personally, so I'll just wish for a wall on our southern border.

Hey, I have a bunch of paperbacks I can send you. ;)

Same boat with the wanting and I already bought it. Last year, I bought a few tools, sandpaper, shop stuff and put it under the tree. The wife refused to wrap them.:confused:

They used to have gift wrapping stations at the mall. Maybe they still do?

1) amazon.com and where's the fun in wrapping your own gifts? She should have been thankful I didn't need to ask for the receipt.
2) Our mall is now referred to as the hall. Belks on one end and books a million on the other. Nada in between.

Not where you can wrap your own gifts, where you hand it to them and they wrap it for you. Why didn't you have Amazon wrap them? :colbert:
We've actually still got two active malls here. A third one still has a Barnes & Noble and maybe a couple other stores.

Amazon Recast is the big thing on my list. Can't wait to ditch Direct.

Also the newest Rick Campbell book and the latest seasons of Vikings and GoT on bluray.
