My birthday is in two days and H is requesting a list. The only things I want are clothes (and I don't want them now because I am feeling huge and want to lose some weight first) and travel, which is not currently in the budget.
Tell me what you want so I can get ideas. The budget is in the $200 range, but post anything!
Thanks to Mint, I kinda know what I'm getting for my birthday later this month. themetaledge.com Not sure which one he got. Probably a crab or a bone fish. I've had the guys card in my wallet for 6 months, and debate one of his pieces every time we go to the keys (he sells at Robbie's).
But, I recognize this is kind of obscure and doesn't appeal to many ppl. So I'll just go with artwork
DH bought me these earrings for my birthday and I looove them.
I also got a Lumo Lift (by request). I have terrible posture, so I was excited to try it, but to be honest, I can't quite figure out how to make it work accurately. It buzzes constantly - when I'm buckling my seat belt, pretty much every time I reach my arm forward or down. So my recommendation is on hold until I either figure it out or determine that it just doesn't work well.
If you want to lose weight...a Fitbit, workout clothes, running shoes, yoga supplies, a fitness class, a couple sessions with a personal trainer?

We have a couple of short trips planned this year, so I've been obsessed with buying new travel bags.
Due to recs on here, I bought the Lo & Sons OG which I love so much I wish I could hold it while I sleep. I also just ordered the Lo & Sons Catalina, but it hasn't arrived yet.
I'm also lusting after some travel organizers (packing cubes, makeup/jewelry organizers, etc).
Non-travel related, I'm in desperate need of a facial and mani-pedi.

Fitbit More travel locally like a weekend in the mountains or the ocean Gift cards for running supplies New Chevy Equinox (clearly above your price point but probably my number 1 wish right now)

Great thread krystee, just realized our birthdays are 1 day apart! I have few ideas too. I told my h I want him to think of something himself IN ADVANCE and get me a card. I probably won't get anything from him. Unless he really had foresight and got something sneakily last week, I don't even know if he has a card for me :/
niq - I'm going to look into that eye-fi card, thanks! (always looking for such ideas for my dad)
@rubytues - those are great; now I'm trying to figure out if I have a place to put something like that, lol
On my list: some private sessions with my favorite yoga instructor, a freezer for the garage, a new suitcase, gift cards for new clothes as I continue to lose weight, a shoe organizer for my entry, a massage

Happy early birthday! H is good about buying cards, but it is always the day of. He will get me a salon gift card if I don't tell him anything, but I will use it toward highlights I would have got anyway, so it isn't very present-y.
I think I am going to find a play or concert I want to go to and ask him to buy ticketsand make reservations for a fun dinner beforehand. I always hesitate so long to do that kind of thing myself since it ends up being such an expensive night out.
