REMINDER:  The RAOK forum is open to the public, not just to PBS members.  To protect your privacy, the 3 monthly recurring threads are intended to be limited to just what their titles say - Wishes, RAOK offers, and Thanks for wishes granted.  In other words, the posts in these 3 threads should be originating messages only.  Responses to, or chat about those posts should be done by private PMs.  Chatting is welcome in the Share and Care forum, which is limited to PBS members, and where card showers and prayer requests are available for anyone who asks for support.
_________________________________________________________________________________________

Welcome to the Wishes thread, 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 stamps, or for monetary donations for any charities.  You may ask for things you collect for charities, such as cancelled 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 you may use the PBS Kiosk to purchase them.
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.  New participants are welcome!)

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 ***Wishes*** 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.  I wish that your wish(es) will be granted!

Happy 1st day of June. Hope it's a wonderful month for all. Today starts the 1st day of Hurricane season for me seeing as I live here in Florida. Praying it's a mild season this year. People are still doing repairs on homes and businesses from last year and really don't need another hit so soon. So praying for a very mild season this year.

As for wishes: can always use stationary. Prefered unlined but lined is alright as long as it isn't college lined (lines are too close together). Prefer pretty designs if possible also. Matching envelopes would be nice but if not, thats ok.

Would also love to get some stickers that are clear backgrounds, in a more adult theme, like flowers or beach or Summer themed. No kid type, or single pieces cut off a sheet as I tend to lose those. Prefer sheets of the stickers if at all possible. Also please no glitter. It gets all over everything.

Thanks to all that can grant my wishes. I do appreciate you all and hope all your wishes come true.

I really appreciate getting a dvd to watch!   I just have a regular player.  I enjoy a wide range of movies and shows.  Animated, Disney, Hallmark, christian, family, classic movies, romance, etc.  I keep them in an album so covers are not needed either.  Thank you for reading!  Happy Summer!  :)

Happy June to all! May this first month of Summer be healthy and bright for all of you and find you and your family in good health! 

I wish with all my heart as always a peaceful, kind, and permanent end to the pandemic. Likewise that all of God's children and life have safe shelter filled with faith, necessities, and love. My absolute gratitude to each of you for the kind light you share with so many including, of course, me. I will post this wish always, too, and that is to NEVER wait another second to tell someone that you care about and love, appreciate, that you do. NOW. Thank you :) 

Dad and I prayers always appreciated and that we truly do cherish each day as the gift from God that it is. I sure pray to do so and to be of kind witness in all I am as well. 

Added on 6/5: I meant to originally say I would still appreciate so very much a kid drawn picture of either a family dog or a large stuffed animal. I would need either the dog or stuffed friend to be named by the child as well. PM me for more information and thank you! 

Item Wishes this month:

Stickers I could use: Summer themed. I don't drink so no need of any pina colada or other type stickers to be included among these. Classic Disney including Mickey, Minnie and Pooh. Scripture or if such a thing exists as Summer themed alphabet letter stickers would be a lot of fun :)

Birthday or Blank Cards are always appreciated. I do not need any thank you cards right now. I have plenty of them. 

100 piece jigsaw puzzles: Summer or Patriotic themed, dogs, flowers, scenic. No cats, butterflies, or cartoony (think Shopkin) designs please. 

Longshot Wish: Should any of you come across a box of only (I do not need any other) design of 3oz Dixie cups https://www.ebay.com/itm/175679370479 Dixie Cup design I would love to surprise my Dad with them. These fun animals brought us a lot of cheer for many years along with kids I learned from and worked with at church. Due to the ongoing pandemic, I do respectfully ask that any disposable tableware or cookie cutters always be brand new and in their original sealed packaging. 

I also respectfully ask always that anything sent to me come from a nonsmoking home. 

Thank you all so much for looking. Thank you for all the faith and friendship you spread! God Bless You. 

Prayers continued for Chuck who is doing really well even though he has had 39 chemo treatments.

Prayers for my mom who is having a pacemaker put in June 7th.  (Mom is doing extremely well.  She is only worried about the machine that reads her pacemaker but she will get used to it.)

Empty tic tac containers.

My wishes are(all longshots):

1. Coupons-any you have extra of and any internet coupons you can't use.

4. Any kind of cherry house decor

5. Anything coca cola-even paper ads,recipes,etc.

Thanks for reading. Post your unique or odd wishes and I might be able to help you out.:)

This is a strange request. New York State has banned single use plastic bags like we used to get at Walmart, Kmart, Target, grocery stores, takeout food, and so on. I agree that litter has improved but I really miss those plastic bags for messy clean ups, wrapping things to protect, lots of uses.   If you could send me just a few, a couple, any, without putting out much postage that would be appreciated.  Thank you.

My baby sister, JoAnne, passed on Saturday afternoon.  She is at peace and health restored in Heaven.  She is reunited with her only son, Brian.

Saying that, my sister Helen who was very close to Jo since we were kids is taking it really hard.  Please pray for Helen and for my eldest sister, Martha who is having treatments for cancer (treatments are hurting her a lot) and she suffers from dementia.  You can pray for me too.

Thank you all.  I don't thing I have been on here much.  I am having memory trouble, too.

Hugs and love to all.  I do pray for you all.

June wishs:notecards,colored envelopes,stickers,scrapbook embelishments

Wishing for good vibes personally on hubby's issue with balloon sinus plasty, issues with my vehicle and harrassment issue at work. Need to relocate that dark cloud hanging over me.

Thanks much!

I can use some coupons for Arby's or Panera's. 

Would like some cancelled stamps which I use for decouage projects.  

I am posting July one day early due to I will be traveling all day tomorrow.  If I-95 has a backup for some reason, I may not get to hotel at a decent hour to post tomorrow night.

Please go ahead and start using the July WISHES thread.
