T3
I am really tired of putting a lot of effort into this and having it be mostly ignored.
In many cases the things that I want are large or expensive and may require multiple people participating. (e.g. I'd rather get a 200 dollar tool or tool bundle than a bunch of 30 dollar knickknacks.)
You can usually get good deals on Black Friday and Cyber Monday. I don't mind late presents.
Just don't get me gift cards. They're not as useful as the equivalent amount of money.
Hence I am going to list a bunch of things in no particular order and you can decide (without asking me) what you want to do.
Money. It is a very flexible and useful gift. I can use it to pay for goods and services, to address our loans, or whatever else.
Power tools. I own a single 1.5 amp-hour Craftsman V20 battery and charger. If you gift me one (or more) cordless tool(s) then please provide the requisite number and size of batteries (and a charger if the tool isn't Craftsman).
Especially cordless outdoor tools like a lawnmower, trimmer, leaf blower, snowblower, or powered snow shovel. Or precision cutting tools like a miter saw (sliding compound), oscillating multitool (with blades for wood and metal), or a router. Please do NOT buy me gas-powered tools. I will take them right back to the store and exchange for an electric version.
Hand tools. Pick something with a reputation for quality like DeWalt, Stanley, or Milwaukee.
Especially a level (metal and rubber; not plastic), sockets, chisels. I do not need screwdrivers, tape, glue, caulk, allen wrenches, or trigger clamps.
Musical keyboard (a learner's model is fine; I do not need or want anything more right now)
Computer drawing pad
Garbage disposal
Kitchen remodel
Bathroom remodel
Extension ladder
Tool belt (leather or canvas; not something synthetic like nylon)
Two bike trainers
Punching bag. Freestanding.
Stainless steel water fountain(s) for the (three) cats
Automatic litter boxes for the (three) cats
A doorbell
Single-face corrugated - a big roll so that I can cut pieces off and give them to Steve to play with
A giant (50+ pound) canvas bag of rice
Two player board games - especially cooperative ones
Leather collars for our (three) cats
If you want more specificity then talk to somebody else who knows me and figure out the specifics without involving me.
