The only problem with making Christmas lists is that you need someone who you know will buy them for you :D

I think Tom's Hardware site has always been a pretty good one for checking things out.

Hi Joan,

The only problem with making Christmas lists is that you need someone who you know will buy them for you :D

I Know I think the trick is to have the page containing the thing you want left open when you leave the room and hoping that someone notices as they pass by

Another way is to set a picture of something you want as a wallpaper image

Sorry that wouldn't work here, I'm sure the other half goes round with his eyes shut, unless it's something to do with guinea pigs he'd notice that :D

Now let me see, a list on the notice board in the kitchen draws attention but that is about all. Comments plenty, do i get anything that is on the list? Not a chance!:sa:

 

[misterwilkie]

My wife bought me some stuff on amazon and the email confirming it came to me telling me what it was.

 

[echrada]

Now you have really given me an idea, order what I want on the spouse's account!

 

[Barman58]

Hey Roy,

Does she know that she's bought it yet

 

[Joan Archer]

:D What and spoil the surprise

 

[echrada]

Good one Joan! lol

 

[roy69]

We share accounts on alot of web sites, both our cards are used (secure).
If she wants something as a pressie and I am not sure what to get her (buying for women can be dangerous, that IRON did not make her happy last year. She wanted something pratical), then she will buy it on my card and vice versa.

The problem is that the emails all come into my mailbox as we also share that.
She has learnt alot about computers since being with me but I run and build the systems.

 

[Joan Archer]

Well the solution there is to get her her own machine :D
