December is knocking on the door (that's tomorrow, what?!) and with that, let's talk holidays. There are so many things going on during the month! Do you celebrate a holiday that involves exchanging gifts?
If so, tell us what's on your wish list this year so we can all take a moment to consider new things we hadn't thought of. (Tech or non-tech!)

This past year has been all about concerts, so I'm trying to figure out what next year will be. Definitely learning more toward experiences over stuff.
Although there's an 8-ft โ๏ธ I'm eyeing at Costco for my front yard.

Shameless promotion: I did the MacVoices Gift Guide this year and offered up some fun items. I have done it for a few years now, and I always try to pick some things that are a bit less obvious (and less expensive!) but still fun.
And you don't have to watch the video, each page has links out to what we all picked so just skip to the bottom. ๐ There's one there that I'm going to repeat here, and it's the Heroclip because I love mine so much and I just keep finding ways to use mine aside from my initial purpose of hanging my purse on the side of the table when I'm out somewhere and don't want to just stick it on the chair behind me.
I think the perfect gift is something someone wants/needs, but wouldn't buy for themselves. Since tech is where I live, and that's not the case for most of my recipients, I can make some strategic quality of life updates that aren't expensive and generally don't require a lot of tech support ๐ Examples:
I am very excited to see other ideas!

I'm thinking of this power bank and charger.

Here we go (Apple-ish stuff).
I'm always running around with 2 MacBooks, an iPad and accessories and I got tired of carrying multiple chargers, so this one fixed it for me.
Then the laptop screen isn't enough most of the time while not working from home. Therefore I'm having a portable screen with me. I have an older version, this is the one I'd recommend for Mac-users:
