This is where we post our wishes - maybe things we collect, something we can no longer find in our area, things we have always wanted etc, etc. No wish is too unusual (though common sense is appreciated!); you never know what will turn up.

We must all abide by these PBS rules :
You may not wish for money or money-like items such as gift cards, or for monetary donations for any charities.  You may ask for things you collect for charities, such as stamps, pop can tabs, etc., but you may not solicit funding. This includes donations for 'gofundme' and other fund-raising events.
No buying or selling or advertising. No spam posts.
No wishing for credits.  Credits are bought, sold and loaned only in the Book Bazaar forum, or use the PBS Kiosk to purchase.
Do NOT ask for books, since books are swapped on the site and book deals are made in the Book Bazaar. Sorry, but you may not ask for free books of any kind. (Unpostable books are given away in the damaged book thread of the Bazaar and sometimes in the RAOK thread.  There is also a Damaged/Unpostable Virtual Box in the Games forum.)

Our own RAOK rules: 
Please do not offer payment for the things you are sent, including postage. RAOKs are given freely, asking nothing in return except a thank you. You could pay it forward by granting a wish yourself.
Please limit your wishes to no more than 10. Lists could get very long. You can always edit as you go along.
Unlike many other forums, we ask that you do NOT reply within the threads. We do everything by PMs between members. This keeps the threads clutter-free and easy to use. When you come to this ***I Wish*** thread, you see wishes. In the ***RAOK*** thread, it's all about things we are giving away - simple and easy. And to protect your privacy, please do not post your address in the thread - it's all done via PM.
Please check in and answer your PMs. It's frustrating when people want to grant your wishes and don't hear from you!
PLEASE say THANK YOU to the person who grants your wish.  You may use our monthly ***Thank You*** thread, or you may acknowledge what you have received via a personal PM to the member(s) who granted your wishes. This is very important if you wish to continue to receive things from others.

Tips:
Check the RAOK thread before you post wishes -- the thing you want may already be there for the asking!  If you see a wish you can grant, just PM the poster for their address.

And please remember, if one of the moderators contacts you about a posting, then we are only trying to keep the forum running smoothly and according to PBS rules. If you are asked to change, move, or delete your post, please do so. Most of you know that the PBS team does get involved to edit posts, and accounts do get suspended, if rules are broken. We hate to see that happen to our fellow RAOKers!

If you have questions, feel free to contact me.

My wishes for this month are:

1) Lotions for extremely dry skin ( for hubby)

2) Instant tea packs you mix in water (to go drinks)

3) Anything as a special surprise, as my birthday is this month (the 20th) ,and we won't be able to celebrate it as money is too tight. I'd love to know my birthday matters to someone other than myself.

4) Special wish: I know this is a little early but my hubby's birthday is Sept. 5th, and it would mean a lot if someone would remember him on his special day. He'll be 74. Bob rarely ever gets any mail and I'm pretty much the only one that gives him gifts. If someone would do a little something for him, it'd mean a lot to me a well as to him. Things he likes are: White Tee shirts ( XXXL), Anything to do with fishing, ball caps, anything with a Navy theme.

Thanks in advance to all who grant my wishes.

I'm always looking for coupons for Weight Watchers products.  Also, if anyone has any 2016 Weight Watchers print magazines they are finished reading, I would give them a good home. ;)

Thank you!

For niece & nephews

*Anything My Little Pony: Friendship is magic (Her favorites are the small sets called MLP friendship is magic collection as seen here https://data.mlpmerch.com/fim-collection/  )  I got niece addicted to MLP :) it is our favorite girl time activity (watch MLP while playing MLP)

*Lego's/megablock's(not the large toddler blocks) all 3 LOVE these! 

As many of you know, I just returned from vacation in Boston.  We loved Boston but some things that took place after we returned are worrisome.

Since we flew out of Pittsburgh and my parents live so close, we spent Monday night with them so we could visit again.  My parents are both in their late 70s.  When we got to my parents' home,  I found out that my dad is having some serious health issues.  He is the strongest person I have ever known and when he finally admits that their is an issue related to health, it is worrisome.  Not only did he admit that he was having issues, we could see that he was in lots of pain and has lost a great amount of motor coordination.  He would hardly move and he would have to grab ahold of something to keep from going down.  He is also having some kind of back issues as he complained of severe pain.  We were there until Tuesday afternoon and nothing improved but he refused to go to any doctor.  My mom and I begged him to go but he refuses.  (it isn't a money or issue, it is a stubborn issue of messing with his schedule)  I called again for about the 10th time since I returned home yesterday and he isn't any better.

My wish for this month is for prayers for my dad to find answers to these health issues and prayers for my mom to be strong enough to deal with my dad's stubbornness in this situation.  ( MY dad is finally going to the doctor tomorrow.  He isn't doing any better but has refused until this point and actually made an appointment.)

Adding:  Prayers for a friend of son's family.  Seth's friend, Shane 31, committed suicide on Friday and no one seems to know why.  He had the world by the tail or so everyone thought.  He was always in the paper for his good works and deeds and his success in high school, college and his chosen career.  We just never know why someone can choose to do something so drastic.

My August wishes:

Happy heading toward mid-August everyone :) 

I am still trying to find my old favorite Dixie 3oz cups. They come in a yellow box and look like: http://www.cvs.com/bizcontent/merchandising/productimages/large/4200043900.jpg

The animals make me smile :) I have called Dixie and sadly this product has long been discontinued.

Important note: Please do not spend money on a similar blue box version of these cups. It is NOT the same product. The yellow box had 10 different animals. The blue box only 4. The blue I can find out here if I had to. I would love one more box of the yellow :) Please, please, do not spend the money Amazon is asking for the yellow cups either! Rite Aid and sometimes Walgreens had these cups buy one, get one. I have also purchased them at Smart and Final and supermarkets such as Ralph's (Kroger maybe for some of you) and Von's (Safeway maybe for some of you). Target and Wal-Mart have not had them in ages :/ 

Thank you for keeping an eye out for these cute critters for me. I appreciate it and all of you, always so much :) God Bless you! 

Hate the 80s? I'm your girl! 80s music is my favorite and I go to shows almost every weekend. I'll take anything 80s you got, except CDs, movies, actual media- have no use for that. Neon, jelly bracelets, etc. I looooove the 80s! :-)

Does anyone have an extra pair of eclipse glasses?  Leavenworth doesn't have them.

Thanks
