Guitar Hero 2 Multiplayer Bundle

My wife and I are neither rich nor poor. We have not fallen on hard times. We manage our money well and make sure our bills get paid and don't get ourselves in over our head in debt. Because we choose to live this way now and prepare for hopefully a better tomorrow for ourselves and any children we may be blessed in creating, there is not a lot left over for splurging on things we don't really need.

This is why it would be nice to be able to get the Guitar Hero 2 Multiplayer bundle. It comes with 2 guitar controllers and the game Guitar Hero 2 for the Sony Playstation 2. It is a game my wife and I have played at our friends place and fell in love with. As silly as it seems it's really a fun game to play. The only reason we have a PS2 in the first place is because my nephew doesn't need it and is letting us borrow it indefinitely.

Thanks for reading this. Good luck with your wishes. (more)

I want to run with my wife and feel good like the robot Gir in the video to the left (Invader Zim rocks!), and I would really like to get us shoes that will be good for our feet. Good shoes can be really expensive and the budget my wife and I are on won't allow for it. Can you help us run, feel free and feel good like Gir? We're running, we're ruuunninggg!

Thanks for your consideration. (more)

My twin sister and her boy to have a new tv

My twin sister, Michelle is a single mom who has done a great job of raising her 8 year old son, Ethan, by herself. She gets by on her single income but will never seems to have enough to do or buy anything extra. If her job didn't give her a clothing allowance she wouldn't be able to buy any new clothes without going into debt using a credit card.

Michelle does a lot for other people. For example,If not for her organizing and calling our various family members, we might not be as closely knit as we are. She volunteers at her church, makes sure Ethan gets to be involved in various activities like dance, martial arts, and help him with his homework and makes sure he is responsible with doing chores and saving money he gets. He's turned out to be such a great, smart, funny kid. She once visited with a neighbor who lives downstairs from her in her apartment building who was all alone at the Christmas holidays just so he wouldn't feel so bad. She also brought him a meal because he wasn't able to afford a good meal for Christmas.She finds ways to make sure her family gets gifts from her at birthdays and Christmas. This is the kind of person my twin sister is. As I write this I realize further how lucky I am to have a sister like this.

So I am asking for money to buy her a new television. The reason I ask for a television specifically is that the last time I talked to her she mentioned it would be nice to have a new one. Hers is so old. It would be great do drive up to her place one day soon and just be able to give her a new television. It would blow her away. I think she would cry and I just might to. I think she really deserves it just for being a great mom to Ethan never mind the rest she does for everyone else.

Thanks for your consideration. (more)

A new computer to crush any New PC Game

I've upgraded my computer components to the best I can get for my current setup (which isn't all that impressive) but it's finally happened. My current computer will not stand up to even the minimum specs for any new PC games coming out. So even if i dial down the resolution and turn off all the fancy effects any new game I play will not run properly. It's ruining my gaming experience. I wish I just needed a new video card but It looks like I need a new motherboard, RAM, Processor, Video Card and possibly a new hard drive.

$500 may not get me everything I need but it will get me close enough as I do have a few dollars of my own I can spend. Help me to crush the challenges awaiting me in any new PC game. (more)

A tub of home made chocolate chip cookies for my wife and I.

I figure I could bribe someone to make me a tub for about $10. My wife and I are starting a healthy eating plan but we are allowed to have a free day once a week. This will be mine and hers guilty cheat. Sure, we could make a batch ourselves but that's not naughty enough. Paying for a guilty pleasure with money that isn't even ours is very naughty.

MMMMmm chocolate chip cookies. (more)
