My family and everyone around me is poor, so it's a pretty cheap list (super depressing, but oh well):
- One of those new fancy Heat flags I'll end up using as a closet door.
- A comfy quilt or something that is warmer than what I've got.
- Socks and underwear.
- Maybe get a name and number put onto the back of my Heat or Flames jersey.
- A fleshlight.
- Maybe some kind of clothes or something.
- A good record player.

Your family sounds redneck. Poor, so you ask for clothes a quilt and a fleshlight. I like it.
I want one of those cool coffee vacuum contraptions. My friend has one and it was pretty awesome watching the water boil using a candle evaporate into the grinds then it condensing to make coffee. Pretty awesome. Probably not a practical daily thing but awesome weekend thing. I haven't been able to find one in Edmonton, but I haven't really looked either.
I wouldn't mind an espresso machine either to make some lattes. I usually like my coffees black but a latte would be fun to make. My sister just got one and has been making coffee like a fanatic... funny thing is she's lactose intolerant. What some people do eh?
Last thing I want is a torque wrench. Mine now is some cheapo canadian tire special and is really out of calibration.
Nothing, I 'm fortunate enough to have everything I need (which isn't very much haha). I enjoy giving during this time of year and will be doing shoe box gifts for less fortunate little children again.

2. New X-box 360 ours has been busted for years now and we haven't replaced yet.
3. Magic stuff. I recently got into doing magic (Mostly with cards) and i want to buy some more magic stuff because since I've started people have been pestering me to do stuff that i can't do without the proper supplies.
So somewhere around $600 bucks for Christmas to get all of this stuff. That should do it. i think
Hmmm
A - X-box $250
B - Magic Stuff $49.99
C - Girlfriend $300 ?
If options A and B were different or non existant option C might become priceless.

A girlfriend is way more than $600 unless it is just a girlfriend for the night. In that case you may be able to get some blow in there as well and live the CP dream.
I wanted a tablet, so she bought me a Playbook last week.
I really wanted a new media server, but with hard drives spiking in price I told her to hold off on it, so I really have no idea what else I will get, if anything.

My parents are flying me to their place in St. Louis over Christmas so I asked for nothing. They keep hounding me, so now I know I'm getting a flash for my camera (Canon 430 EXII). As lameballs as it sounds, I really don't care for getting anything over Christmas. I see my folks a couple times a year, so I'm pretty content with just hanging out with them over the holidays.

I told my wife to make a donation to charity and to take me to Nando's for lunch.
We're going to spend more money on gift exchanges than we are on each other, which is kinda sad. Mainly because we're broke.
