Everybody complains that gift cards are impersonal and tragic Christmas gifts. Screw that.....give me a gift card any day. Frankly, I hate almost any gift someone gives me. I have particular taste and I don't want most things people offer me. Even Gary doesn't choose my gifts. I pick them out and he gets what I want.
I LOVE gift cards. Give them to me any time. Fortunately, Gary's family did what I preferred and ganged up and gave me $150 in Amazon.com gift cards. I know my way around Amazon. USED is good. You can get great things that have barely been touched if you know how to read the descriptions. I just had as much fun as I did on Christmas buying all sorts of things I wanted!!! All used...but gently. I only spent $100 of my gift cards...so I still have $50 to spend on my beloved KINDLE. Trust me...you want a KINDLE...you can buy one right here on my site...just scroll down on the right!!!
Just look at all the goodies I got for $100 on some one else's dime!!!
1:) KD Lang's album Watershed!
2:) Book: The Romanov Legacy: The Palaces of St. Petersburg
3:) A respected biography of Edith Wharton
4:) An out of print biography of Marie Fedorovna (Nicholas II mother and the Dowager Empress of Russia .....I've wanted this one forever!
5:) The White House: Historic Furniture and the First Families
6:) Fortune Hunters: Dazzling Women and the Men they Married
7:) Kylie Minogues album; Aphrodite
8:) The Memoirs of Russian Grand Duchess Olga Alexandrov
9:) GIANT..the three disc set from the movie
10:) The movie; 'That Hamilton Woman' with Lawrence Oliver and Vivien Leigh
11:) Standing Next to History: A bio from a secret service man that served three presidents.
I'm happier than I was at Christmas. I love gift cards. You get what you want and these are things I wanted...silly or not!!!
Yours, Bratprince
