Do more than just wish. Make a wishlist!
Every year my siblings and I do a Secret Santa because there are just so many of us (3 biological, 3 step-sisters)! We always exchange emails with what we want, but I know that I can never spit out a list in one sitting. I find things along the way and add them to my mental list and then forget about them when it’s necessary.
This Christmas, I discovered the wishlist site Wishpot.com where you can add items to an 
online wislist and send a link to your friends and family to view. I even have a widget of my website! So when the “Secret Santa” email went out, I simply said “View my wishlist!”
o if you don’t know what to ask for I invite you to view the guides I put together at Wishpot. I’ve made lists for men, women, children and pets (they have feelings too!). The prices range from budget friendly to splurge-tastic (One thing I learned when making my bridal registry-always include expensive items because you just never know what some people are willing to spend)!
If you don’t have time to scan my guides, here are some quick ideas that I would either really want or want to give:
For Men- Budget: Dude Food: Recipes for the Modern Guy, $6
- Splurge-tastic: Brooks Brothers: University Striped Scarf, $248
- For Women
- Budget: Animal Print Heart Bracelet, $5.95
- Splurge-tastic: Angelique De Paris’ White Topaz Bangle Bracelet, $240
For Children- Budget: Kids Cookbook, $7.95
- Splurge-tastic: 50′s Diner, $149
For Pets- Budget: Personalized ID Tags, $19
- Splurge-tastic: Eco-Fleece Pet Bed, $119

That’s pretty neat. I like that wishlist idea…it’s like registering for a wedding! It’s great too, since I never know what to get my family. I’m even buying for my nephew now, and I’m at a loss as to what to get him. I was thinking about the new pictionary man game (http://www.letsplaypictionaryman.com) but I’m not sure if he’d think that was lame or not.
any suggestions?
