what's on my wish list (for the holidays and in general)

02: gifts i actually want this holiday season

My friend

Ali LaBelle

recently shared a fun piece (all her pieces are fun) called Gifts for your friend who’s a lot like me and immediately after reading it, I thought about what I would want to add to my own list. 100% of the time, I’m the type to reply with nothing any time anyone asks me what I want for my birthday or the holidays. When I’m asked on the spot, I really can’t think of anything I want or need, but Ali’s piece prompted me to think about what I’d actually want. I’ve listen them all here so that I could refer to it when those times do come and I thought it might help you navigate shopping for a friend (or yourself), too.

Afterall, 61% of surveyed Americans admitted to getting at least one unwanted gift over the holidays and an estimated $15 billion dollars are wasted on unwanted gifts each year.
