Gift card to Crate and Barrel
Gift card to Nordstrom's
Or ask Aloise. I'm constantly emailing her pretty things that I want.
This is Good! A general idea of what you want is good. I love Mary's list. As for your list, Lisette? "pretty things" ? Ahh. No more having to search on ebay for things like a Hula Girl for your dashboard. Glad THOSE days are over :) Or am I :(

Ahem. I second Lisette's "pretty things" for my house. Things to hang on the wall, curtains and throws and table linens...or just gift cards to places like Crate and Barrel, Pottery Barn, etc.
Never thought I'd say this, but also gift cards to Home Depot...no I have not gone butch, I just really want a patio set and a grill!
CLOTHES. Specifically cardigans and grown up shirts/blouses (trying to make my wardrobe more mature); gift cards to grown up stores.
Or anything that you may have thought of already :)
And all Dave wants for Christmas is membership rights to this blog so that he can post his own list.
**cough cough** Mary? Where are we on this? *excuses excuses* "I have three kids!" *excuses excuses* "I have more important thing on my mind than Dave's avatar!" *excuses excuses* "I was too busy buying you awesome presents to use on Thanksgiving!" *excuses excuses*
For pretty things I mean like lovely little things from Anthropologie, or I am in the market for one of them side purses... hmm Aloise what are they called? Also I always love new sudoku puzzles, puzzles in general, or good medieval or historical fiction books.
Well for me I wish I could be really specific like you girls. I just love gift cards at times like these, so I can get something special when the mood hits. Bed Bath/Beyond for pretty things i see, or K-cups I always need! Barnes n Noble for my reading obsession. Gap or Kohl's for clothes. But truly I love being surprised with whatever. I know gift cards are boring...wish I had better ideas! There's nothing I really NEED...so I will love anything my secret santa picks I'm sure!
For Jimmy.... 1) thick socks as Andrew is always stealing them 2) Crewneck shirt...cottony,snuggly, XL...but not blue or grey..another color 3)gift card to Dicks 4)maybe a Bruins sweatshirt? He's harder than me but these are a few ideas
*Earrings. Long or short, colorful or plain, silver or gold. I never seem to have enough lovely earrings. *Pajamas. I would love some nice pajamas. Like the ones I got Mary last year. Traditional men's style pajamas like the ones at j crew. Size small. *A nice clutch! For non baby bag times. *Leather driving gloves. (Size negative 4. Lucia's hands are practically larger than mine).
...and here I was thinking I couldn't possible think of anything I wanted! Right.
I would love a dustbuster, yes, for real:) I would also like a watch, a clutch and new slippers. You can never go wrong by getting me jewelry. I also LOVE DSW so a gift card to there would be awesome! Please check with rob first because I'm not sure what his mother is getting for me. I have already mentioned some of these items to her. Merry Christmas!!
OK, first Marty, I laughed out loud at your hand comment! Me too, ring size 4 3/4 anyone...
Anyhoo, I would love to say things for my house, if I had one, but since I don't, It's a bit hard to shop for me. I don't really need anything. So here's a try.
More than anything, I like getting away with Sean, so money towards a restaurant would be great. Theresa's South in Bayhead, NJ is one of our favorites, or Red in Red Bank, NJ
Pajamas are great, size L or XL, pants and top.
I do need clothes, but I'm hard to shop for with baby weight...and holiday weight ;) But gift card would be nice...anywhwere but Kohl's, I'm sick of shopping there.
Of course, if you've already gotten something, that's fine, and pretty things, like jewelry are always welcomed :)
After years of stalking Brewster's Millions I finally get to post something for myself, and luckily for you all, it's about me.
What I Want for Christmas By: David Schmitt
For Christmas I want the following things: 1) CoD MW3 (solidarity, Sean); 2) A "shell" jacket, a la Northface, or money towards one (size L); 3) A Spanish omelet every Thursday morning; 4) A basketball hoop for my "office" (not the whimpy kid kind); 5) A nice long sleeve button down shirt or two (size L); 6) An everything bagel; 7) Money towards a grill (Home Depot, Lowes, etc.); 8)a light sport coat, brown or tan (40R); 9) Whatever Frank wants.
Mary, what happened to the rule that all new sons(brothers)-in-law required a two-year probation period before being allowed on this blog? We all know what happened when Frank was prematurely admitted.
Well since there is a 2 year probation period and that I can't fly a jet pack this might be my my last Brewsters Million post for till October 16th 2012..
I better get my Christmas list out fast then!
These are my wildest Xmas wishes to come true
1)Restaurant Gift Card - Max's or J Gilbert or Carmen Anthony so i can spend time with the lady
2)I could really use some work clothes so a gift card to Nordstrom or Express would be appreciated
3)I want a new pair of Air Jordans that come out in January so a gift card to Champs would be great.
Outside of that I can't think of too much more. If someone is feeling generous a Porsche would be appreciated. Maybe get that mid life crisis started early.
Ok Roob (what the?) and I might actually get a fridge for christmas too. Big joke how I still have an ugly, 40yr old fridge that can barely be cleaned anymore..so Fat Chance dear. If it still works....I can wait another 40 yrs,ha
Dad, I was really referring to your Amazon wish list, but now that I re-read my comment, you should apply that "Nicely played, Dad." to the caution you're taking with our brothers-in-law. It never crossed my mind, but it makes so much sense! We can't turn the clock back on Frank, but we can learn, can't we.
Mary, as someone once said: "Live and learn." Who would have know that the quiet Frank would turn out to be a "fifth column" in our midst? I mean to say, do you recall his very derogotory apellation of "crazy old beekeeper?" Well, I never! And then there's that other what's-his-name who lives in Scitico. Who knows what havoc he might wreak on these pages?
btw, I don't think it bodes well for our relationship to be claiming "to be the board." Is this the first salvo in a hostile takeover? Donald Trump has nothing on me when it comes to turf wars. haha, just kidding???
Well, maybe not. I'll keep my powder dry and cultivate a close relationship with the top gun guy in Florida.
Oh....I would love a pretty,maybe winter-white scarf that is a circle....you cool girls know what i mean. and maybe new snuggle throw for liv room...chocolate. we fight over blankets here on movie night. And to make us ALL sound super petty............a healthier baby Paul...:)
Which could or could not include one of the following: - Money towards a Nice Camera - Money towards a new rug - A gift certificate to Evergreen Walk for new clothes

Books!
A slow cooker, crock pot or otherwise. I think I prefer oval to round.
A pair of hunter boots (Original green-not glossy-size 8). Money towards it would be wonderful!
A new pair of sneakers. money or gift cert toward cross trainers bc I obviously have to get these fit myself.
Practically speaking, things for my apartment (future one) would be great.

BETTER?

Barnes n Noble for my reading obsession. Gap or Kohl's for clothes.

2) Crewneck shirt...cottony,snuggly, XL...but not blue or grey..another color
3)gift card to Dicks
4)maybe a Bruins sweatshirt?
He's harder than me but these are a few ideas
Dear secret Santa,
I would love any of the following:
*Earrings. Long or short, colorful or plain, silver or gold. I never seem to have enough lovely earrings.
*Pajamas. I would love some nice pajamas. Like the ones I got Mary last year. Traditional men's style pajamas like the ones at j crew. Size small.
*A nice clutch! For non baby bag times.
*Leather driving gloves. (Size negative 4. Lucia's hands are practically larger than mine).

For Sean, I'll get back to you.
Woops. Schmitt you're invited.
I know it sounds boring, but all Sean really wants is a video game. some titles are:
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3
Assassins Creed: Revelations
Child of Eden for Kinect
or a gift card for Gamestop or Amazon
This is FUN! I've already gotten 7 emails (and sent out 4) regarding SS gifts.
Request: Please send me an email when you decide what you want to get your person. OR if you know what you AREN'T going to get from their list.
This helps me MUCHO to decide what I want to get :)
Ahem,
After years of stalking Brewster's Millions I finally get to post something for myself, and luckily for you all, it's about me.

3) A Spanish omelet every Thursday morning;
4) A basketball hoop for my "office" (not the whimpy kid kind);

6) An everything bagel;
7) Money towards a grill (Home Depot, Lowes, etc.);
8)a light sport coat, brown or tan (40R);
9) Whatever Frank wants.
Those are the things that I want for Christmas.
David...PERFECT Avatar!!
Welcome, Dave! SO glad to have you dude.
Mary, what happened to the rule that all new sons(brothers)-in-law required a two-year probation period before being allowed on this blog? We all know what happened when Frank was prematurely admitted.
I propose that my probationary period be waived due to the fact that I, unlike Frank, can fly a jet pack.
Dave, we will take it up at the next board meeting. Can't promise anything, but I'll do my best for you.
Well since there is a 2 year probation period and that I can't fly a jet pack this might be my my last Brewsters Million post for till October 16th 2012..
I better get my Christmas list out fast then!
These are my wildest Xmas wishes to come true

Ok Roob (what the?) and I might actually get a fridge for christmas too. Big joke how I still have an ugly, 40yr old fridge that can barely be cleaned anymore..so Fat Chance dear.
If it still works....I can wait another 40 yrs,ha
Here's my list;
http://www.amazon.com/registry/wishlist/35LC5D1SUFWXX/ref=cm_wl_rlist_go_o
Also, a new work bag!
It's my turn and I'm hard pressed to come up with anything really cool!
I DO need more (basic) Bare Mineral make-up. Not for eyes; for face.
A scarf would be sweet. Love having more than one.
GIft cards to clothing stores always a favorite :)
A coat (or $ towards) like the one I got Lisette last winter. Can't remember where I got it but Lisette could help with this.
Nicely played, Dad.
Schmitty, watch your step. Refreshing wit will get you nowhere with me. And I'm on the board. Some say I AM the board.
Dad, I was really referring to your Amazon wish list, but now that I re-read my comment, you should apply that "Nicely played, Dad." to the caution you're taking with our brothers-in-law. It never crossed my mind, but it makes so much sense! We can't turn the clock back on Frank, but we can learn, can't we.
Oh and one more thing.
I'd like to add earrings to my list. I would love a pair of gold hoops—not tiny, maybe 1-1 1/2 inches. Or any others.
Mary, as someone once said: "Live and learn." Who would have know that the quiet Frank would turn out to be a "fifth column" in our midst? I mean to say, do you recall his very derogotory apellation of "crazy old beekeeper?" Well, I never! And then there's that other what's-his-name who lives in Scitico.

And to make us ALL sound super petty............a healthier baby Paul...:)
Me too, adding to my list:
A zip-up vest to wear around the house.
Cream, black or dark blue.
Things I would like if you need help:
Earrings. Like Mary, I have been looking for a pair of gold hoops, 1-1.5 inches, but any will do. I have lost most of mine, somehow!
A pair of black leather driving gloves.
L.L. Bean 8" Thinsulate winter boots, size 8 (money towards this would be great.)
I need new shoes for work, so a Zappos gift certificate would work well.
And of course, any thing you might find appropriate.
I no longer want my curtains. Woops.
I want anything my secret santa wants to get me.
Which could or could not include one of the following:
- Money towards a Nice Camera
- Money towards a new rug
- A gift certificate to Evergreen Walk for new clothes
sorry to be so changey...
