We had a gift exchange last night, the kind where participants can steal from each other. I ended up with
a Stanley 40oz insulated mug.

since my divorce, I do that now. Why not ?... I buy myself something. I don't wrap it and wait till Christmas to open it... but I do buy myself something... and this year I bought 2 wardrobes for the spare roomBefore my husband met me, he always bought himself a birthday present and a Christmas present. I never understood why until I became a widow. Merry Christmas!

Same here @PeppermintPatty …I gave $50 to the salvos meal appeal ,twice in Dec ( 2 different locations )We decided to opt out of buying gifts for each other. We have everything we need so gave to charity instead . It felt good.
My hubs has a Ryobi battery powered tyre inflator …so now he only drags out the compressor for blowing the dust out of our rooftop ducted air conditioner twice a yearThat Dewalt 20V cordless tire inflator I bought myself is the absolute ticket!!!
The end of its air hose is threaded instead of a clip on, which is great for my arthritis.
Thread it onto the tire’s valve stem, turn on and it shows what the tire pressure is, set the dial for desired air pressure, hit “go” do nothing until it shuts off automatically.
I put my old portable air compressor back in the Saturn. It is 30+ years old and still works. This DeWalt stays home for all the tires around here![]()
