I'm at the age where I'm struggling to think of things when asked. It's not that I have everything I want, it's that what I want is either not attainable at all, or it's far too expensive to put on a wishlist. I'm trying to think of relatively inexpensive (say nothing much over $30?) things that would be interesting, neat, or make my life easier that I'm too reluctant to buy for myself because it's not an absolutely necessity. So far I've come up with... slightly better quality kitchen gadgets/utensils than the really old ones I have. How about you guys?

I mostly just put books. I never know what to tell people.

I have a few books on my wishlist, but for some reason people don't seem to want to buy them for me? They're not controversial or weird ones, just a mystery series. I read a lot, but I no longer collect many books these days, just get them via the library.

I just want impossible things this year (my dad and cat back from the dead for example). I don't have any other needs.

My condolences, anon. I have "wants" like that as well, that aren't possible.

150 billion dollars, tax-free, for me. That's on my wish list.

Well yeah, same. Money can't buy happiness, but it can buy a whole lot of stuff that contributes to happiness.

DVDs of some TV shows and movies I like that I don't already have and can't see on streaming

Oh good idea, I'll have to look at my collection and see if anything is missing.

Maybe a small fire extinguisher for your apartment, if you don't have one already.

I'm in the same boat, down to asking for kitchen utensils. I want a new cutting board, wooden, to replace the scraped and warped (won't lay flat anymore) plastic one I have, and a new thermos, because on all the ones I own the press-button-to-open-spout-for-pouring mechanism is broken.

I've also been thinking of asking for more good quality everyday stuff in general. Take Post-Its: they have better paper, and stick and come off as needed, than cheap or novelty sticky notes. But every time I stand before the selection in the store, I just cannot bring myself to spend twice the amount of money on brand sticky notes over the cheap kind, and then I regret it when I have to use them. Post-Its, cellotape, band-aids (anything that is supposed to stick, really), but also Sharpies, brand tissues that are soft on the nose and don't dissolve in the washing machine if you forget them in your pocket, ... Kind of stupid, but they are nicer to use than the cheap stuff.

You're so right about everyday things being nicer to use when they're better quality. Some stuff is ok to skimp on or get the generic, but sometimes it genuinely is worth getting the more expensive stuff because it's just better.

I don't know. I hadn't really thought about it because no one ever gets me gifts, if anything I get money. Usually I buy myself some stuff but I don't really want anything this year except maybe a new phone and that is out of my budget.

If I could have ANYTHING I'd take, like, a weekend, a few days, just all to myself. Not having to be around anyone. I love my family and my friends and my partner and even my coworkers are great, but if I could have a solid 48 hours of not having to talk to or deal with a single living soul, I think I'd be in heaven. I've considered renting a cabin in a vacation area a few hours from me just by myself for a few days but I feel like people would genuinely flip out on me if I did that - "What, what do you mean, where are you going, why, can I come with you, why don't you want someone to go along, are you ok," etc etc etc. And it wouldn't be worth it to have to deal with that.

I want one of those little Dirt Devil hand vacuums. It would be so useful for cleaning upholstery and small spaces in my apartment.
