Getting presents? What do you have on your list?

[Guest Princessaj]

For us, it can be Christmas all year.

 

Daddies love giving presents and rewards.

 

If Daddies are not wise to this tradition, let's all share our ways of how to get them on board and get it right.

 

 

"Wish Lists" have a long history in children's lives. I remember one of my Wish Lists went from new crayons to the car in the back of the Neiman Marcus catalogue. Yes, I was born with expensive taste, but not a silver spoon in my mouth.

 

As I grew up and started dating, boys, or shall I say, men, I always dated much older guys, were perplexed as to what to give me when present time came around. For the most part, they didn't want to make a mistake. So I "helped" them. Lol...

 

Help your Daddy become your Hero in the present department.

 

To start. make a list of 10 things that you want that can be purchased. For each one, write a little mini story, 2 sentences max, as to why you would like to have it. Choose things that are $2 to start and then upwards. According to price, scramble them/mix them up, not low to high or vice versa. Then find them online and record the URL/internet address as to where to find them.

 

Next, make a list of 10 things that cannot be purchased. Things that you know Daddy likes doing, making, arranging, preparing, is good at doing....only you will know. For each one, write a little mini story, 2 sentences max, as to why you would like to have it.

 

Finally, take the 2 lists and merge them together, mingling all the items. Feel free to decorate with pictures, color and whatever makes it look like its for you. Do this on the computer because the links have to work, they have to be live, they can be pushed and take you to the page where the item is and you can share it in an email.

 

Disclaimer: Consider your DDlg rules that may effect how this plays out in your DDlg relationship. A "Wish List" is not a demand, it is a conversation.

 

How have you gone about gifting with your Daddy?

I invite everyone to chime in and contribute your gifting stories, the amazing ones and the the disappointments too.

i....really love getting presents, so i usually have my wishlists made months in advance. like this one!!

 

wishlist

• craft stuff: i don't work due to ptsd and other disabilities, so i frequently get bored when oniichan is gone at work. i really just want some pre-made michael's crafts that i can do. i've shown oniichan the ones i like. coloring is fun, but you can only do it so much before you get bored of it too.
• tsumtsums: i LOVE THESE THINGS OK i don't even know what i'm going to do with them because i just have a stack of them on my nightstand that's not getting played with (i need a irl little friend), but I WANT MORE. in particular, i want boo, mickey & minnie, chip & dale, bambi, sadness, rapunzel, ariel, and any others that i might find cute.
• books: this one is hard for anyone to do because i am an avid reader so no one ever knows what to get me, but this year i want the rest of the mortal engines books (i have the first one) and the rest of the maximum ride series (i have the first two). also the manga alice in murderland, since i have everything else by that mangaka.
• clothes: honestly i already have a lot of clothes, but a lot of them don't fit me as well as i like anymore (washing machines and big boobs do that), so i really need a new wardrobe. preferably little clothes. this one i'd like oniichan to give me an allowance and then just spend it on whatever i want.
• dolls: i have a lot of dolls already, but every little girl could do with more dolls, right? this one would be easy for anyone to do. just buy me a pretty barbie, monster high, or ever after high doll and i'll be happy. of course, i have a lot of these too so like with tsumtsums and books, it's best to ask what i have before buying (which oniichan knows uwu)
• care bears: this is more of a "if you want to" type thing on my list. i really want more care bears as i only have two large ones right now, but i have soooo many stuffies that honestly i could wait to get these for my birthday or just as a little present at some point throughout the year.

honestly that's all i can think of that i want right now. if i end up thinking of more stuff (which i probably will), i'll add it to this list. of course there's a giant list of things i want that we can't afford, but i'll wait until we're rich to ask for that

I recently started a wishlist on amazon for the first time

i filled it with tons of things

some of the things are very expensive... but it's a wishlist so I just put because i do wish i could have it

we are not very well off financially  so i feel bad when he does purchase things.

Daddy says he'd rather buy something if it makes us happy than put it off for the future because life should be enjoyed.

which is the opposite of how i was raised, my mom always wanted us to save for the future. 

he is still responsible though and makes sure we have enough to pay bills..

but i definitely struggle with being showered with gifts. thankfully i think daddy understands this and i think he treats me just enough.

he always makes sure i have what i need and he makes sure we are comfortable and have fun.4 

 

recently daddy bought me a stuffed animal i found online that i been wanting and i'm waiting for it to come in the mail

[HeCallsMePrincess]

I don't think I've ever had a list. I just tell Daddy what I want and usually get it. I'm spoiled lol he says he's spoiled me for any other man lol

[Guest funshine]

I'm not really into wishlists. Even if I had a daddy, I think being spoiled would make me uneasy. I'd rather buy it myself. I mean, I don't have tons of money so it takes time to save, but I feel good and responsible when I finally do get it!

I'm with your on that one. I honestly just feel uneasy and guilty when it happens. My boyfriend/Dom is coming over for my birthday in a few weeks and he keeps asking what I want. Eep.

Lala Loopsy, Shopkins, Monster High

Puffy cute stickers, especially lolita-esque, to decorate with.

 

* Cute clothes of Sir's choice.

My Daddy loves getting me things but we're not very well off so it's usually quick things that don't cost a lot. I've grown being poor so I've become quite a penny pincher and so usually tell him not to get me anything. I do have an Amazon wishlist but I plan to get most of it myself when I'm able. I do Like the occasional bits of candies or such from him though --

I have several wishlists! I love them. I have a few google docs set up into categories so it is all nice and sorted. I have stuff like the sailor moon cat back pack to nerdy eyeshadow pigments from shiro cosmetics on there that I want But my big this is I adore bows. So much. I want to make my own bows and have tons and tons of bows. My caregiver has already acknowledged, accepted, and loves his role of learning how to make bows for me and helping me make them. So I have several lists of ribbon I love. Most of that will come when we live together. I really want pillow pet stuffies, as many as I can find. I also have a list of all of the pokemon stuffies (the cute ones of course) that I want. I will eventually have shelves in my little room just for all of my fellow pokemon. 

For now, I mainly get an allowance on amazon and bonuses when I'm a super good girl. Please don't think I'm gold digging I am not. Yes he makes more than me but it is mutual. I made it clear he doesn't have to do it but he likes providing for me. So I have lots of beauty oils and coloring pencils and coloring books.

Since Beast and I pool our money because I'm going to school right now, and not working as much as I used to, He tends to buy most of the things I need. I do have a Amazon wishlist, and once a month, He'll take 20$ out of my allowance and just surprise me with a few things off of it. Which is really nice. I have a hard time accepting gifts, but I also know that I wouldn't buy these things for myself because I'd much rather spend money on other people. So it's nice to know that He wants me to feel the love that I try to make others feel by thinking of them. I also don't see it as gold digging because we're in a committed, long-term relationship and since our finances are all together, it's sort of hard to tell whose money is whose. When He was going to school last year, I was the one working. 

 

As for actual gifts, my favorite thing genuinely is to go to Target and shop the $5 dollar section and get some cute new panties. I'm pretty easy to please.

I have a bunch of wishlists. I keep some private and only show Daddy and some are public so anyone can view them/get me things from them LOL

 

Daddy does a really good job of spoiling me just enough. We don't have a good financial situation right now, but every paycheck he gets me something. Usually a $5 or less toy or goody of some kind. it's enough to keep me happy and feeling loved and spoiled and he is just the best ever!

Whenever my Daddy asked me about what I want, I always tell him I just want Daddy! I usually feel uncomfortable asking for something outright. But there are somethings I always want, like I crochet and I always want yarn or money for starbucks or coloring books and pencils, or just a new piano songbook. Getting stuff like that once a month or something would make me super happy.
