[Road Guy]

Mom and MIL always such a PIA to shop for!

Whose got ideas and or cool stuff they found?

Also apparently these are making a comeback:

I think the best last minute gift I thought of already is a year's subscription to The Athletic for my brother in law.

My MIL wants a scarf, and my stepmom wants some geneological books.

My wife (who is not into hugging trees or really all that into specialty makeup) specifically asked for a subscription to Causebox.  Doesn't really fit her personality, but she listed it by name, so...

Ammo.

 

[JayKay PE]

Taco Bell giftcard.  The gift that gives back after you're done.

And following in a long line of EB Spamming tradition:

Hookers & Blow!

In reality: Gardening supplies such as a windowsill garden or a mini kitchen herb garden tray. 

Wine or cheese gift baskets usually go over well too.

I liked your first response better. 

We are having an 80's themed Christmas Party at work and your response was my first thought, but in reality it will not nearly be that "fun".

White Castle gift cards also like give back.

Ammo, Taco Bell Gift Card, Hookers, and Blow would be one interesting Christmas morning.

when I first read that, I saw "genocidal boots"

I'm in the Midwest now.  That sounds like a normal Tuesday morning.

Ammo is my gift to me.  Ive made a tradition of "End of the Year End of the World gifts" to myself for a few years now.  Just got in about 10,000 rounds yesterday.

I've been meaning to go in to either the local Police supply store or Cabela's and get my first firearm.  Looking at a CZ P-10C.  Not the most fancy, but my research indicates its reliable and of good quality.

Czech firearms have usually been fairly decent from what I've read. I personally have both an Israeli Arms (original Desert Eagle) and Glock for carry guns. And yes, that DE can get heavy when hiking in the back country. But the glock is only going to piss off a bear if used as a defense weapon.

Buy yourself something you really want that's expensive (say a new gun). Wrap it, label it as "From Santa", and put it under the tree. Your significant other can't complain unless they want to explain to the kids that Santa isn't real.

I'm pretty sure that you'll hear about it later.

It’s always easier to get forgiveness than permission

Definitely not last minute, but I managed to get a hold of an Oculus Quest for the boys for Christmas.  Apparently it is one of the hot gifts this year because we couldn't find them anywhere and we sure weren't going to pay $800+ for one on eBay.  I ended up finding one at our local Microcenter.

I recently obtained a used Berretta ARX160 and Santa's bringing a Henry 357 lever action.  I guess ive been good this year.
