What's THE gift this year?

Well, last Christmas I gave you my heart, but the very next day, you gave it away.

:smiley:

Still the Wii (I’m venturing out for the first time EVER on Black Friday to try to get one), and also Rock Band, for the young at heart. I can’t imagine the little ones being into it, though.

Igglepiggle!

Personally, I prefer the Ninky Nonk

Are people actually scared about that? I honestly have not given it a moment’s thought, and I have a little kid.

Who out there is actually scared off buying toys?

I’m not scared off of buying toys, but I am watching what I am buying (mostly toys from Germany, books, and some handmade ones from me…)

Huh. I loved that show when I was 2, and that was almost 20 years ago! The more things change, the more they stay the same, I guess.

No kids myself, but buying gifts for a lot of friends & family. I’m very attentive to avoiding “Made in China”.

Obviously nobody in any position of authority is taking any responsibility here, so it’s on us, as I see it.

I think certain branches of entertainment are hoping that HD will be the buzzword for gifts this year. HD-DVD (Blu-Ray), HDTV, etc.

But I actually suspect that they actually won’t sell as well as they’re anticipating, and one of the battles in this so-called format war may be decided.

Seems like GPS’s are the IT present for adults. They are on sale everywhere and everyone I talk to seem to want one.

The Wii’s only been released here this month, so I’m sure that’ll be it this year.

Oh, and those micro-RC helicopters seem to be all the rage.

For us it’s a PS3. We’re foregoing all other presents to spend way too much money on a console.

But, it’s a console AND a DVD player. So it’s okay. :slight_smile:

What about Tickle Me Emo? I hear he’s on the cutting edge of new gifts.[/QUOTE]

Shouldn’t that be Cut Me Emo? I hear he comes with black eyeliner and a little plastic razor.
