But I'm truly happiest when I get gift cards or something I've been eyeing for a long time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517304 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 10:50:35 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 517304@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think I am. I love to read and like to collect classic books. I get a lot of those as gifts. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517197 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 10:13:04 +0000 PurplePumps 517197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I think I am. I don't really want or have need for random things, but when I do want or need something I usually just buy it myself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517079 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 09:18:21 +0000 autumnlove 517079@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes, I am! I don't even know what I like on some days! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517031 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 08:51:49 +0000 anonysquire 517031@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so. I always ask for socks. Also anyone who knows me should know they could get me nail polish and I'd be happy. Or anything cat related. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517027 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 08:50:00 +0000 Arden 517027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, not at all. I always have Amazon wishlists, I drop hints, if anyone asks I tell them several options of things I REALLY want... and then they go and buy something I didn't want at all. </p> <p>So frustrating. I've been asking for a couple specific items for two years, and instead I get everything but - leopard print pajamas, books I already have, ugly clothes that aren't even my size... it's almost like they just grab the first thing they see in the store and call it a day. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517017 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 08:44:38 +0000 doodlepoodle 517017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm actually really hard to shop for. I'm very particular with the things I like and so it's hard to buy for me. I'm usually a gift card kind of person, get me a Coach gift card and I'll go to town! ;-) My MIL usually gets good stuff though, she hates to shop but somehow always gets me something very thoughtful and spot on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-517001 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 08:25:23 +0000 heffalump 517001@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Crumbs: My LO's nursery theme is pigs :) When she was little I would surround her with her pig stuffed animals and put her pig hat on her and take pictures. I'm a little obsessed! Also, her nose got stuffed up when she came out so she would grunt like a pig, I loved it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-516981 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 07:37:14 +0000 SugarplumsMom 516981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>But I am hard to shop for. I'm particular, when it comes to decor although I love all unusual knickknacks. With clothes, I love scarves and knitted hats and mittens, socks ... that kind of thing. So I guess I'm not that hard to shop for afterall. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-516978 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 07:32:10 +0000 SugarplumsMom 516978@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@artbee: I love pigs too! Actually DH got me into them. Pigs are a loving term of endearment in Sweden. For instance, the expression "sleeping like a pig" means to sleep nice and soundly. DH says DD looks like a little pig when she sleeps and means it in the nicest way possible. Hehe. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-516967 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 07:19:02 +0000 heffalump 516967@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No, I'm very easy. I love pigs and collect egg plates. Any of those things will make me happy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-516956 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 06:39:11 +0000 Cherrybee 516956@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm really hard to shop for!! I know this because I'm forever getting presents and thinking "oh?? okay....?"</p> <p>I don't want for anything!!!! I'm not into jewelry or handbags or "stuff". If I need something, like toiletries, I'll go and buy them. I don't like chocolate particularly or other sweet treats. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-516948 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 05:53:55 +0000 Bao 516948@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't think so, I'm a simple person. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/are-you-hard-to-shop-for#post-516942 Mon, 21 Jan 2013 05:24:54 +0000 MaisyMay 516942@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Are you hard to shop for?</p> <p>I don't think that I am, but my in-laws have told me. I think it has more to do with DH not asking me what I want when they ask him. </p>
