What is your Christmas present to yourself?

I was looking at something for myself, put it on my Amazon wishlist, then bought things for my boyfriend, then realized I had actually put the me gift in my cart and had it wrapped and sent to him.

Sooo, I inadvertently have bought myself something for Christmas, but shh. We’ll let him think it’s for him. :smiley:

A condo.

How does one go about getting on your Christmas gift list?

Well you are one of my favorite posters, but I think the condo store is fresh out. Would you like a pony instead? :smiley:

I don’t have room in my apartment for a pony. :frowning:

I bought myself a bunch of anime and this:

My SNES works about half of the time and the NES borked out in the late 90’s and I still have all of my games for those two systems.

One of these (Cuisinart Keurig one-cup coffee maker) which I use for tea, a 3-day trip to Palm Springs, and one full day at the premium outlet mall there.

I’m thinking about a new stereo receiver. Not sure yet. I’ve been pretty good to myself this year already. Built myself a pretty nice Stratocaster this past summer and wrapped up quite a bit of cash in that.

But you would have room in your new condo. My god, it’s a vicious circle.

Just got home from the concert that was my present to myself. It was awesome!

I bought my wife a genealogy software package which I know I will use myself.

I remember my parents using that tired old excuse, every year of my childhood!

Be careful how you light it. Oh wait, that’s Hibachi…

Depends; are you Kathy Lee or Kelly…?

A nook color. So far. There’s still time.

Santa brought me a gently used Olympus e620 DSLR. Now I just have to find the time to play with my new toy!

A new girlfriend and a leather couch. The gal I was seeing thought I was getting too serious, suggested we take some time from each other and I reinstate my profile on a dating site. In the mean time, met someone else that is actually more compatible with me and we get along great. Old girlfriend emails me last week, would like to meet for a few drinks and maybe go back to her place. Sorry babe, took your advice and I have plans, hopefully for a long time.

Stopped in at a Macy’s furniture clearance center last week and found a nice leather couch marked down to $699 from it’s original $1899. It was a display model that has been cleaned and comes with the full manufacturer’s warranty. The salesman enters the item number in the register and it rings up at $449. I am told if I apply for a Macy’s card I can get another 15 percent off. Sure. Out the door price with tax and free delivery (the day after Christmas) is $420. I’m happy.

My parents have (and had when I was growing up!) a house with a back yard, and still used that tired excuse of having no room. You know, had they gotten rid of that swing set (pfft!), and all that other crap, I could have had a pony. I guess that goes to show my parents just didn’t love me.

If I get it (if) I promise I’ll post the day its here & paid for. I don’t want to jinx it.

I’ve been good. Someone broke my heart. I’ll overspend on shoes if I want to!

Well, it’s more I got it for myself but will be telling my husband it’s what he got me–a really nice handheld GPS unit.
