if you exchange holiday gifts with your SO

[CloudBee]

And you are requesting something that is $200+, what is it?

Inspire me.

We love exchanging gifts, but nothing is really jumping out at me this year. I typically give DH a list with a bunch of links. Right now I only have a handful of Tory Burch bags on it that I like, but am not drooling over.

I have an iPad, don't need a new laptop, and have had all of my recent (past few yrs) jewelry wants fulfilled.

I don't know what to put on my list. Total first world problem, I know.

What are you asking for?

I asked for a new Michael Khors bag.

My list is pretty uneventful this year. The "biggest" thing I want is a $300+ backpack that is backordered until February.

I really want a sewing machine this year. I occasionally get an idea for a project that would be so much easier with a sewing machine. I want a good one.

Once I had DS, I loved having a clutch type wallet that held my phone and a few regular items to make swapping between my regular purse and the diaper bag easier.

Yes we are exchanging. I gave him a list of books, DVDs etc that I want. I gave my family the same list. It also doubles as my birthday list (my birthday is today ;D).

He has not given me a list and I made one for him for my family. His birthday is Dec 2nd so his Christmas list also doubles as a birthday list.

Our limit for each other is $50 total. We aren't rolling in the dough though so it works for us.

Maybe I should default to a spa GC. I just really like tangibles. Handbags are usually high on my list but I am still so in love with the LV cross body I got in June, and am not using my other favorites due to this.

Kimi - I dream of having an embroidery machine one day. Maybe I should check them out on Amazon. My sewing machine has gotten so much use since I biughtitna few years ago.

Do you have an awesome diaper bag yet?

Nope! Suggestions?

I'm getting my ears pierced.

H and I are getting each other robes inspired by our stay-cation at the Mandarin Oriental in August. I think we've decided on these...

We didn't even know we were robe people!

I suppose I'm pretty cheap, cause most of the stuff I want is $50 or less. I would love some new athletic pants from Athleta, which can get pricey quickly. And I'm buying DH a package of yoga classes, but that's only because he is too cheap to get it for himself.

I asked for Botox.

[aliciar6]

last year i asked for a compoound bow, last year he wanted a Kahr P380 (small handgun)...this year he wants a crossbow.

I wanted winter hunting boots this year (but they were only $130) that was my main want. I was tired of my toes freezing.

[raangoli]

It's usually jewelry. But I think this year I want money towards a pair of diamond earrings I am savings for. If not jewelry, then a new purse, but I just bought myself an LV, so it seems silly to get another new bag.

I need to stop buying things for myself.

I am getting a Tory Burch wallet. I also have been going for massages every 6 weeks. Cloudbee if you haven't had a prenatal massage get one. They seriously are the best thing ever and the beds they put you on have the best pillows. I wish I could stay there forever.

I also may have bought myself a Kate spade diaper bag

[raangoli]

Oh I thought of a gift that I've had on my list for years but MH doesn't understand why I want it so badly - a le creuset oval dutch oven. Someday it shall be mine!

[dcrunnergirl]

I'm asking for nice, new pillows (like Memory Foam pillows--those are $99 each. Not exciting but I really can't find a pillow I like and need to get a better night's sleep.

[rfs13]

We haven't exchanged in a few years because it's just not in the budget. For $200 I'd ask for a new purse

[whitemerlot]

Some emerald jewelry since my DD was born in May.

A bag for my new camera.

[dec13th]

it's on my list too!

We're probably keeping things very MM with our gifts to each other this year.

If I were asking for a $200+ gift, though, I would ask for a new laptop (preferably a Mac if we had a lot of extra spending money), diamond earrings, or a pearl strand necklace.

But that won't help you since you already have that stuff ... maybe furniture or home decor items, a handbag, a watch, go out to a really nice dinner, or go on a trip?

MH got me one from Marshall's for my birthday last year. I love that thing!

We're getting a dslr this year. (Still deciding between the Canon T3i & T4i)
