So one of the hard parts of Christmas for me is the dreaded "what would you like?" question.
I literally want nothing. I need nothing and Im not one for having things for the sake of it.
My friends hate it because I just don't appreciate knick knacks and smelly stuff and gadgets.
What about you? Are you hard to buy for? Do you have a list of things you'd like? Do you like all the funny or pretty or funky gifts that fill the shops? |

Im the same really. I dont want things for the sake of getting something. Id much rather get nothing or cash. I dont like clutter in the house so as bad as it seems if i dont want something itll only get given alway or end up in a raffle  |

I’m so easy to buy for! I’m a typical girly girl so I love pretty things. Cath kidston. Nice smelly products such as molten brown. I love nail polishes and make up. I love trinkets, signs, personal gifts. I also love days out so afternoon tea and spa vouchers always go down really well with me. Wine or flavoured gins, vodkas and liqueurs are great too. |

My birthday is close to Christmas so from the age of 5 I've grown up to diss like it cause apparently its greedy to receive two gifts at the same time of year lol
But like you I've no need for anything to be fair, however a good bottle of rum always goes down well round this time!  |

I like getting Amazon gift cards so I can buy myself kindle books and knitting stuff. From Marc I like getting trips (this year it's a trip to Berlin).
I don't like "stuff" much. We move around too much for it. |

I never ask for gifts, I dont want them. Myself,friends and family Buy a toy for a kids charity instead or donate food to a food bank, much more worthwhile cause  |

I asked my mum for a goat this year. It was funny winding her up for a while before adding the part about it being for a family in Africa. |

I'd be ecstatic if I got something thoughtful... Something that shows they pay attention and know what I like...
I get socks... And slippers... And bubblebath...  |

Ads asked me this the other day and while there are loads of expensive things I’d like, I know we won’t have pots of money for ourselves so I never know what to say, I’ve settled on a dressing gown lol.
Geeky x |

Certainly not greedy! I've a friend with a birthday on Xmas eve and I always make sure I get her separate birthday and Xmas gifts.
There's nothing in particular I want you can buy this year at all.
Does this come with old age |
