Online Christmas Lists - Give What They Want, Get What You Want

Remember when you were a kid and you made a Christmas list and sent it to Santa? Or maybe you went to the mall and stood in line to actually sit on Santa s knee so you could tell him in person what you wanted. Santa only knew what you wanted because you told him. These days, you re probably not writing letters to Santa anymore. You re probably exchanging gifts with your friends and family. So now let me ask you, do any of you really know what anyone else wants? ...probably not. Oh sure, you might know that mom and dad want a new cordless phone, but everyone else in the family knows that too. So what happens?... they get 4 new cordless phones for Christmas. And what about everyone else in your family. You have no idea what to buy any of them, do you? How do I know? I ve been there ...trolling the malls ...looking for who-knows-what. Eventually buying another tie for dad, another sweater for mom, another gift card for sister and husband. And guess what? They re all wandering around the mall wondering what to buy you. Something has happened to Christmas since the time you were a kid - it s become a hassle . You have this day that only comes around once a year. There are people you often only see this one day out of the year. It s a day that everyone is supposed to be happy and having fun. But instead, all you re thinking is, \"I don t know what to buy anybody.\" But what if you just knew what everyone wanted? And what if everyone just knew what you wanted. How much simpler would everything be? Of course, you can t very well write up a wish list and pass it out to everyone. Not only is it tacky, it s totally unworkable. Buuuuut... If everyone made a wish list and put it online , then you d be able to see what everyone wants and they d all be able to see what you want. All of a sudden, Christmas is Christmas again! Now, you re buying something that you know is going to be a home run! Now, you ve cut your mall-wandering/trolling time down to zero. Heck, these days you might not even have to go to mall... Find out what everyone wants online , and then go buy it online . So how do you put your wish list online? LittleBlueBird.com It s free - it s simple - and it s free!
