BS, we are similar this year. Although I don't have everything my heart desires I can't think of anything I actually want (apart from a little treasures subscription, although that seems to be falling on deaf ears!).
I have just told people that i want vouchers so that when I do see something a bit down the track I can just go and buy it then!
Dh and I are going to go visit Michael Hill on Boxing day to get me a new wedding band in the 50% off sales. Mine is buggered after letting them try and repair it twice!!!

Yeah BS, I have some of those vouchers too 
People have learnt now. They give me either Michael Hill or Noel Leemings vouchers. I can't get enough of either jewellery or appliances

Yep I'm the same can't think of a single thing that I want, ended up telling DH I would like to get the dog spayed for xmas!!!! She is booked in on Monday....lol
Have told family not to bother we just end up exchanging vouchers and then I can never be bothered going and spending them and if they send cash it just ends up getting spent on everyday stuff. I don't have everything but I also don't really not have anything that I want. (OMG how bad was that English?)

why dont you get people to give you something like a pig or goat... well not you specifically but you can buy them to give to developing coutries villages and you get a card to say it was done in your name... i will try and find a website later...

That is a good idea.
But what about something as simple as purfume or bath stuff??

mum does that - she has basically fed an entire village from one goat she bought on oprahs angel network a few years back! I tried setting DH up aguide dog puppy sponsorship a few years back but lady running it messed up the bank accounts etc so gave up on that idea months after trying!
so far one present i have receive this year - a pair of xmas socks from USA!
im not trying to sound ungrateful but i feel like i need to give some direction but just dont know....might ask for vouchers or pressie cards....warhouse might be good....or farmers...they get used on ella for sure then!

I don't know what I want I really liking the new Mariah Carey perfume mmmmm it's really yummy maybe I'll get that we just get money or vouchers from everyone now it easier for my family anyway for then to send. We have fun on the boxing day sales don't know if I'm brave enough to go there with a kid though.

Why don't you say no pressies this year then? There is no point just being given something for the sake of it??? Now I have a child, I think Xmas is all about them and birthdays are about you
