November 18th UPDATE: Here’s my wish list on Amazon. There’s not much on it yet… I’m working on it.
People are always telling me I’m a pretty hard person to shop for and they never know what to get me unless I give them a list. So here it is… I’ll add more stuff as I think of it. Some of these things might fit into multiple price ranges depending on brand & quantity, so I’m putting them in the price ranges I think that they fall into.
I’d rather have something more “useful” than “fun,” but if something is both useful & fun, then that’s even better. And I’d love to have something I can learn a lot from like a good book, ebook, audio book, or video training course on object oriented PHP 5, AJAX, C++, C#, copywriting, Japanese, CSS – I don’t have any particular products listed for these since I don’t know which ones are good… I haven’t gotten around to researching them.
The Cheap Stuff ($0.00 to $10):
Clic Eraser refills
0.5mm mechanical pencil lead
Un-du adhesive remover (I have Goo Gone, but I like Un-du better)
IBC Cherry Limeade
Blank MiniDV tapes for my camcorder
Blank DVD-Rs (minus Rs – I usually buy the Nexxtech brand from Circuit City because it’s cheap and they put them on sale a lot, but whatever other brand is fine)
NiMH rechargeable AA batteries
Toe socks (my sock size is 9-11… shoe size US women’s 6 1/2)
Body pillow cover (I’ve seen some under $10, but these will probably a little over $10)
Slightly Spendy Stuff ($10.01 to $60.00):
Headphones – not the kind that go in your ear (those are usually either too big or too small for my ears – never a perfect fit), but the ones that clip onto your ear… I don’t like the ones that are all one piece because it messes up my hair 😛
Body pillow cover
Camcorder battery for a Panasonic PV-GS120 (part number: CGA-DU14)
2 GB MicroSD card
Blank MiniDV tapes
Blank DVD-Rs (minus R)
Blank Lightscribe DVD-Rs
NiMH Rechargeable AA batteries
Wii AC Adapter (this would make it so much easier for me to move my Wii around – I already have spare A/V cables and a sensor bar and this is all I need to make it “portable”)
Wii Zapper w/Link’s Crossbow Training
Wii LAN Adapter
Extra Guitar Hero Guitar for Wii (I don’t think anyone even sells these yet – I only need ONE)
Wii Remote (in case anyone actually gets me a spare Guitar Hero guitar – I don’t really need this otherwise)
Wii Points Card
Super Mario Galaxy
Zack & Wiki for Wii
Dewy’s Adventure for Wii
Expensive Gifts ($60+):
Space heater – those portable ones that heat up small rooms; I don’t care about brand as long as it heats
Camcorder battery for a Pansonic PV-GS120 (part number: CGA-DU21 – this is the higher capacity battery)
Xbox 360 Premium or Elite
MacBook Pro
iPod Touch
I’ll probably put up a wish list on Amazon or something… or not. I’ll update this list if I think of anything else, especially if I think of any more of the cheaper stuff.
