Have you got any items on your Christmas wish list yet?

Have you seen anything you want to buy someone else?

Please post any unusual gift ideas here. I can't be bothered to be original this year, so I need some inspiration.

the most usual gift i got...(At least to me) was colonge samples a shoe box full of them from one of my aunts in 98'...thought that counts but what was she thinking?

Christopher said:

sounds like she was either trying to tell you something about your state of personal ... er ... hygiene or she didn't have much money to spend that year.

But it's still a good idea ... I might well make a few shoeboxes up for people I don't wanna spend money on

Raspberry said:

lol i think i smell alright... but i had enough colonge to start a store.

Ive got a few things in mind. But I find as I get older Im finding there's less and less that I want.

bananacologne said:

Aww, even Id buy U something more than that!

bananacologne said:

Oooo, poncy lard. I can see you have expensive taste.

PREDOMINANT said:

U cant go around calling people names like that!

PREDOMINANT said:

Thing is Mr Ant, cooking is the LAST thing Id be using it 4!

JDINTERACTIVE said:

Who am I calling names? Are you ok JD?

PREDOMINANT said:

Calling people 'poncey lard'. Whatever next?!?!

JDINTERACTIVE said:

I called the Crisco "Poncy Lard" I will appologise for that and nothing more .

Sorry Crisco, you are not poncy lard you are a polunsaturated vegitable spread in your own right.

That better JD?

You lot aren't as imaginative as I'd hoped. I was thinking you'd come up with loads of ideas so I wouldn't have to bother thinking about it this year.

Oh well, I can see I'm going to have to put a little effort into this Christmas after all.

I found the lamp from the movie "A Christmas Story". It's the fishnet leg lamp...me and my friend are buying them for each other for Christmas

What does it look like Carrie? Do you have a pic!!?

Lleena said:

yes, I want to know too

and Lleena ... are those panties edible ones?

I got my brother a blue cloud guitar for Christmas last year. This year the gift to me is money to help pay for my trip to South Africa.

As for gift ideas for you, I'd have to know for whom you are shopping and what he/she likes.

you got the leg lamp?... no fuckin way...


"look look its says fraaagiiileee... it must be Italian... no dear it says "Fragile"

Lleena said:

It's a leg lamp...with fishnets. haven't you ever seen "The Christmas Story" with Ralphie??? You'll shoot your eye out...sound familiar? Let's see if I can find it online...

CarrieLee said:

omg, where did you find that? we looove that movie, and my husband would kill to have that lamp in his office!

Moonbeam said:

I have around 30 people to buy for this year, ranging from 6 months to 69 years old. So any/all ideas are gratefully received

... I like buying things that are a little unusual, as now I'm getting older a lot of my friends have just about all the normal stuff they need.

Usually my creative juices flow during the year and I find just the right thing way ahead of time. This time, nada. Maybe it's because I've got less money to spend this year than usual, but I really haven't got a clue what to buy anyone, except for the children who are always easy to buy for.

irresistibleb1tch said:

I found it in a magazine...can't remember which one. They have them online, just do a google search for A Christmas Story Leg Lamp...good luck!

CarrieLee said:

thats the one... thats it... along with the Red Ryder Twin action carbine pellet rifle "with a thing that tells time"

CarrieLee said:

oh wow ... it's cool but gruesome, cos it looks a little too realistic

Does it come with a choice of shoes?

CarrieLee said:

thanks!!

Raspberry said:
