O.T. Getting What You Want Under the Tree is Easy...If You're Santa!

Fred19Flintstone

Wilma and I have a system.  Years ago, our first Christmas was not going well.  She was hinting what she wanted as best as she could and I was going "Hmmm.  I have no clue what she wants."  Of course I was equally helpful when asked about Christmas  "Ahh I'm fine.  Don't worry about it."  Being newlyweds, Wilma was distressed.  That's when we decided that making Christmas lists aren't just for children.  Our rule is they must be completed by Thanksgiving.

This year, my primary targets are an AR and a Spider.  I explained what I want from the ceramicgrillstore.com website.  Wilma logged on today and soon her head was spinning.  I come home from work and she hands me the credit card.  "Here!  You know what you want.  Just order it!"  So with credit card in hand and a smile on my face, I made sure I will have a very Merry Christmas indeed!

Pretend you are surprised as hell Freddie!

Sounds like it. My wife made it easy and went and bought herself the purse she wanted for Christmas so I wouldn't screw it up. I told her to get me the AR, but I broke my Kindle last weekend and replaced it with a Fire. She told me that was my gift from her. Oh well, we both are happy with what we got each other.

I know this sounds gooey, but all I want for Christmas is Peace on Earth, love for our fellow man, and justice for all.  

Oh yeah.  I'd also like an AR-15 assault rifle with a 30 round clip, modified for full auto and 300 rounds of ammo. 

:ar!

300 rounds ain't gonna last you long with that thing. )

It's called "seasoning".   )

My wife bought an antique bedroom suite in August and told me to call it her Christmas present.  The next week I bought my egg.  Come Christmas, we'll just put bows on them both.

My wife and I usually buy things for the both of us...imagine my surprise when she also wants a nice mixer....pizza dough, finally homemade.

We just tell each other what we want.  Whoever goes first sets the price.

Here's what I'm getting (I'm a total food geek)....

That's one of the coolest gadgets ever!!!  Do you have to wait until Christmas to use it?

Is that even gonna break the gun in? What brand are you looking at?

nolaegghead

She just ordered it yesterday.  No, we do all our shopping early and start playing right after delivery. (lemme hear a "Hell Yeah!") 

dlk7

Hell Yeah and that just gives you more time to get more stuff for Christmas.

My first thought was you left at least one zero off the end.  You meant to type either 3000 or 30,000.

Not sure if I have been good but I want a beretta 686 silver pigeon 1- Santa please! Will try harder next year.

Little Steven

I would like to get a .22 but I'm not allowed. Used to have one but illegal now

I'm getting a "brand new" Winchester Super X1, my dad has had it in a box since he bought it in the mid 70's, never been put together and had a shot through it. I have had the barrel sent to Briley's in Houston to have them fix the barrel so it will accommodate screw in chokes. I'm stoked, many consider the SX1 one of the finest auto-loaders ever made. Bring on the clays. Maybe I need a Sous Vide to tenderize them a little.

Well looky what I got here!!!  My Christmas present which I ordered four (4) days ago was waiting for me on my porch when I got home tonight!  What incredible service from CeramicGrillStore.com and the craftsmanship of the Adjustable Rig and the other goodies looks top notch!  I gotta email them to let them know how pleased I am!  Ho!  Ho!  Ho!

My XL adjustable rig woo combo is sitting in a box by the front door. I just tell her what I want all year and the things I don't end up getting myself she gets me. The AR is the only present that I know what I am getting kinda like the surprise. Wish I was as good as her at this I just take her shopping and wrap what she picks out.
