This is a general list of stuff we want, need, or will need, for our house. We haven't been careful about the order, and costs vary wildly. (We'll ultimately be using this as a checklist too, so we don't forget anything important).

Want

  • A 22 inch Weber grill
    • A new grill brush (Wood handle?)
  • A random orbital sander
  • One of those Bose (or other good sound-quality brand) music players you can dock an iPod in
  • A Wii
    • Wii Fit
    • Extra Wiimote and nunchuck
    • At least 1 classic controller
  • A PS2
  • An xbox 360 pro
  • A set of free weighs (preferably 2.5lb increments up to about 30, not sure if we need to go higher)
  • Exercise balls (55cm and 65cm...should be the two smaller of the normal three sizes.)
  • Stands to hold the weighs and exercise balls
  • One of those inch+ thick foldable mats
  • A new toaster oven
  • A Brita pitcher
  • New bathmat set (the bathroom itself is white, but I don't know what color "stuff" I want yet)
  • 2 matching shower curtains (the bathroom itself is white, but I don't know what color "stuff" I want yet)
  • Doormats (front and back doors)
  • Outdoor table and 4-6 chairs
  • Gardening tools (trowel, mostly...my mom or Zahnnie would probably know what I need)
    • You will likely want a good set of gardening gloves that fit you well (so get them yourselves as opposed to as a gift preferably), a trowel, a um... what are those little three-tined hand-rake things called? They are awesome. One of those, and a pair of garden snips, of similar size to the ones I inherited. (They're good for weeding and stuff.) If you will have shrubbery sized stuff to deal with you will eventually want a hedge trimmer. Some hedge trimmers have build in uber-snips right next to the pivot for maximum force. These are awesome. -Zahnnie 15:04, 24 June 2009 (EST)
  • A Costco membership
  • Two very simple/small blond wood chairs to go at a small kitchen table
  • Gift cards: Home Depot, Sears, Bed Bath & Beyond
  • A 32-40" LCD TV (Samsung has 37" and 40" LCD TV's that I like)
  • A Blu-ray player
  • Bose Lifestyle V-20 home theater system
  • A universal weight machine

Need-ish

  • A Dyson DC-17 vacuum cleaner
  • A swiffer wet-jet
    • Extra pads
    • Hardwood floor "swiffer juice"
  • A swiffer duster
    • Extra little fluffy things you put on the end
  • Lawn mower (The push kind, or maybe self-propelled, but no fancy ride-on stuff.)
  • Hedge trimmer (electric)
    • 50'+ outdoor extension cord
  • Garden hose (also for car washing) -- will need to double-check where the spigot is before I commit to a length on this
  • Set of fireplace tools
  • Wireless access point (probably an airport EXTREME!)

Already Perpetrated

  • New Fridge (Thanks Jeff&Nicole, we'll send you pictures when we get one!)
  • Couch (Thanks Mom, will schedule pickup in July)
  • Washer and Dryer (Still shopping, considering these possibly: washer, dryer) (Thanks Mom!)
