What presents have you bought?

El_Dangeroso

In the spirit of last-minute Christmas inspiration that I desperately need, what have all the good people on AH bought for their loved ones this year?

Everyone I have to buy for already has everything that they'll ever need. I'm open to suggestions though.

A bin, for them to throw out all that stuff and start again.

Seeing as it's the thought that counts, I'm gonna think about getting everyone something really nice then not bother.

You evil genius.
Maybe one of those bins with a little basketball hoop on the top for page 2 of their novels. I understood the subtle social messages that movies like "White men can't jump" present. I like to think of the white people I am buying presents for not jumping.

I watched wifey closely through out the year and anything she mentioned that she liked I made a mental note of so I would know what to get her for Christmas. I'm having a bit of difficulty wrapping the George Clooney and the Ferrari is taking up all the driveway but I know she'll be happy.
