I know it's getting a bit late in the day to start buying gifts but I lost at least an hour and a half browsing through here:

Late?? Bu99er me - it's not Christmas Eve already is it?!

Hey, that was a cool website though - some different stuff.
For the kids, I couldn't decide between the Makedo playhouse at $10 or the Human bowling ball at $4500...
For her indoors, it will clearly have to be the Dyson Vacuum cleaner - that should make for a pleasant atmosphere round the Christmas Dinner table, always assuming I can extract the bird from whichever of my orifices she managed to ram it into!

I'll take the Dyson, hubby wouldn't buy me one after taking our UK ones apart to unclog or untangle "more times than he can remember". I have an actual Hoover now with a bag no less, it's like I'm back in the dark ages

Boy, I hope your hubby knows he's got a "keeper"!

I could forsee serious sense of humour failure for putting a vac under the tree! To be fair, she's doesn't go a whole bundle on the gift thing. She's always.."we don't need anything, let's just get presents for the kids"...
She still hasn't learned that blokes are just kids in bigger bodies....we still need toys, its just that now they need sharp bits, or loud bits, or fast bits....or preferably all 3....

You can use the Dyson to do this.

Hubby has been quite easy to buy for this year, he's got a nice stash, but I know for a fact I have nothing at this point although we are planning on buying each other a Matgaritavlille Machine with vouchers from the out-laws.

The dude has gone all Jerry McGuire this year "Show me the Money!!!" So I'm thinking a fiver in his card?

Seen them advertised, and wondered how an ice crusher commanded such a price, but never seen one in action until we went to a party a couple of weeks ago - very impressive!

Yorkieabroad

Five bucks! Why be flash? give him a $2 and tell him its a special edition

ChocolateBabz

If I could find a $2 note that might be worth a wind up

Just bring two singles to the bank - they should have some they can give. You'd be a while waiting for one to turn up in your change.

ChocolateBabz

I have never seen one so didn't think the bank would have any, I will pop in today and find out. I have bought him 3 chocolate oranges (seriously that's all he has at the moment) so if I could get hold of 3 notes I could wrap one round each orange and just wait for the reaction

Nutek

Want!

SultanOfSwing

We have one that we kept after we got it in change but they are rare in circulation (probably because everyone keeps one when they get it). A bank should have a few, it's worth a try.

I got two chocolate oranges the other day. I ate one then my wife goes and tells me that I have to leave the other one until Christmas. WTF?

ChocolateBabz

Target only $2.99 each, white, milk and dark!
