I can’t believe I’m the first… I want an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle! Actually, I wanted a laptop, so I went out and bought one. So now, I just want a new pair of comfy slippers, and to lie around on Christmas day with my wife, covered in cats. Or with my cats, covered in my wife. Whatever. ---

I want a digital camera because I need to take more pictures. Or an alarm system for my truck so my stereo doesn’t get stolen again. -foxy ---

> [@Aesiron](#): > > I just went over to Amazon to make sure the price was still the same on the DVD set and it looks like the $130 pricetag was for the one day only. It’s now up to $180 and if I can’t afford the $30 for my ear, I can’t afford $80 for DVDs. The money my dad sent me’s going to go towards my credit card or in my savings account instead. ☹ Thanks to an awesome (but anonymous) Doper, I now have possession of my precious \*[Buffy](http://i19.photobucket.com/albums/b161/norisea/ea208b9b.jpg) \*and at the original price of $130. I love this board sometimes. ---

Some hot man sausage. Really, I haven’t had any in…uh…almost 6 months. ☹ Buuuut, seeing as that ain’t gonna happen, I’ll be happy with The Sims 2. 😉 I’ll make them screw like rabbits and live vicariously through them. ---

In the spirit of the season, I shall loan my boyfriend to you for 1 night. What I really want for Christmas is some freakin’ sleep. Have at it. 😉 [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/so-what-does-everyone-want-for-christmas/331940.md?page=5)
