First:  Remember:  this is the place to wish.  We all have wishes.  If you feel someone has asked for something too large, expensive or extravagant,   just ignore.  Please be kind.  Don't make someone feel badlyNone of us know someone else's circumstances, unless we ask...........................For those of us asking, let's remember this  is Not a Christmas shopping list.  It's a place for members to wish for items for themselves and immediate family.

Here, you list a few things you like/collect/can use.  Obviously,  we all like certain things like  credits, wish-list books, etc. This is NOT for that kind of thing.   This is for  things others might have around the house that you can use (for instance if you collect postcards, bookmarks, Coke codes, or if there's a candy you love you can't find in your area, etc).  **   Please remember that books, by title or genre, should not be requested in this forum(I Wish thread).  There may be other places for that.  If someone sends you a book, please receive it and thank the member sending it.

Please limit your list to about 10 items (Remember,  you can edit your list), and if someone PMs you for your address, please acknowledge and thank them when you receive whatever they send you.  There is a separate thank you thread so we can  keep this one clean and easy to read.   It can get jumbled and hard to read with extra clutter so if we can do our best to keep it to our requests and the rare bump, that would be awesome :) ;) It's important to thank everyone who send something either by PM and or the thank you thread.

It's always good to check the RAOK thread before you post your wishes - someone may already have what you are looking for. (For those of you looking for them, coupons are offered on the RAOK  on a regular basis.)   There is now a separate coupon thread within the RAOK forum, if you wish to trade there.

If you post wishes, try to grant at least one wish yourself, so this place is not considered a "gimme" group,  where people post but don't send out.  PBS members can become good friends, don't abuse, please!

If you see a wish you are able to grant, just PM the poster and ask for their name and address - that's it, simple and easy and a lot of fun!

Any questions, please feel free to PM me, I will try to help.

I am looking for old X-BOX Games, the original X-Box, not the 360 X-Box.

My husband likes one-shooter and war games, no sports or kid stuff.  He is not a violent person, but he does like one-shooter games, like Pain Killer, Mech Assault, fantasy and science fiction war games.

They are very hard to find and I would even reimburse you for the postage or if reasonable for the game itself.

Thank you.

Angie Teal

Pop-tart codes -  Some boxes have codes inside to redeem for rewards. They're the boxes that say "Discover our Flavors! Pick your Rewards" I can also use codes for other Kelloggs promotions.

I also collect Coke Rewards and O.J. codes

Stickers and/or a sticker album. I've been looking for one but haven't been able to find one that doesn't have a cartoon character and 5 pages. I have all my stickers in a file folder stapled on 2 sides. Would love to have them in an album.

Miniatures - I got my first Dollhouse kit. I would love to collect miniatures to put in it.

A Blood Lilly bulb - I bought one a long time ago and haven't been able to get a hold of another one. I was such a beautiful flower. Here is a link for a picture of it. http://www.theflowerexpert.com/content/aboutflowers/tropicalflowers/blood-lily

All kinds of beads, inluding ones from old or broken jewelry.

Marlboro coupons - Just ones for ciggeretts. I dont do the snus thingys.

Organic material - I want to put together a fariy landscape with a little hut and such. There's some things I just cant find easily here in AZ like acorns and cool looking bark. I also need more moss and pinecones.
