Finishing with Last Minute Shopping (and Personal Finance Links)

December 15, 2010 by Lazy Man 1 Comment

While my wife is out of town, I have a little opportunity to get a few things from the Christmas list. So while I’m out running around instead of writing new, interesting articles for you, why not completely cop out? Here are a couple of gift guides from the last couple of years:

  • Lazy Man’s Gift Guide 2009 – I still love the Plano shelving from Wal-Mart. It practically lines my whole garage now. The only thing that tops it were the BAGGU Reusable Shopping Tote – 6-Pack, but they seem to be much more expensive this year.
  • 15 Products that save Time, Money, and Space – Though the list is a little dated, some of the products on there are ones we still use every day.

If I were to recommend one product this year, I’d make it Dungeons & Dragons: The Complete Animated Series. Clearly, a cartoon from my childhood isn’t for everyone. However, for under $7.50 the 9 hours of entertainment of all 27 episodes can’t be beat. There are some two types of shows from my childhood, those stand on their own today and those that, well fit the “what was I thinking?” mold (Dukes of Hazard and Knight Rider come to mind). This cartoon is still amazing today. In re-watching them recently, I realized that the characters set it apart… they matured throughout the show. The other thing it had was a continuity to it, much like you would see on How I Met Your Mother or a similar show. I’m sure the D&D theme may scare some away, but it wasn’t really about that so much as a bunch of lost kids trying to find a way in a crazy world and putting others ahead of themselves.

Okay, time to stop gushing now and bring out the links:
