plansrme Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Probably not that unusual, because I've seen ads for them everywhere this year, but my world traveler is getting a scratch-off world map similar to this one. She is hoping to backpack through Europe this summer, so she can scratch off some more countries when she gets home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is hoping to backpack through Europe this summer, so she can scratch off some more countries when she gets home. I hadn't seen these, so thanks for posting the link, plansrme. My sister does something similar with a world map and push pins. I hope your daughter has a wonderful backpacking trip.

katilac Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 This one isn't pretty, but will hopefully be functional. Nerdwax is beeswax and other stuff that you put on the nose piece of your glasses to help them stay on. My son marches and his glasses slide down all the time; my dd's glasses slid off so frequently at work she doesn't wear them anymore when she's working. I hope this will help them. Just have them watch out for any dryness, itchiness, rash, etc. My dd got cracked skin (like, eww! and ouch!) and an inflamed rash after diligently applying lip balm to keep her lips from drying out in the cold. As it turns out, she was reacting to the beeswax that is in some balms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelle in MO Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 (edited) This thread is awesome! I only wish that guitar shirt came in a piano version...

Angie in VA Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 They have sloth wrapping paper at Target. You can't care, but I looked and I looked and I looked. OK, so twice I was in a big hurry and did look. Today I had time and I found not one but two styles. I settled on one and re-wrapped DH's gifts in the sloth gift wrap. (Wrapping over the existing wrapping paper, b/c I'm that lazy and bonus: it'll be twice as much work for him to open them, lol. ) Thanks for telling me about sloth gift wrap's being at Target! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stacia Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 II could see quite a few people really liking this gift: Keychain Duct Tape That's actually totally awesome. Plus, the page mentions it can be used for gaffer's tape too, which is something I know Irish Dancers use on their shoes (maybe other dancers too?). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephanier.1765 Posted December 16, 2017 Share Posted December 16, 2017 I can't remember if I saw it here (maybe even this thread :/) but I'd love to have this subscription for a murder mystery box.

unsinkable Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Sloth wrapping paper: :wub: https://www.basbleu.com/gifts/sloths-gift-wrap/UP2052.html Oh, I wish I could find this IRL. I'd hate to pay for shipping for this. I sorta kinda have one roll of gift wrap assigned to each family member. I would get this for DH b/c he loves this commercial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gl3l6Bq6bMo They have sloth wrapping paper at Target. I have a Christmas sloth rubber stamp. I got it a couple years ago and (some stamper) people hated it then. It is funny how things get trendy and start popping up everywhere, like with my Merry Everything stamp. That is a couple years old, too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
