My dad's a jerk. He keeps telling us we're gonna have a "thin Christmas" and says stuff we bought like, 2-3 months ago are Christmas presents. Then he goes out and buys all this stupid crap for himself. Mom is mad about it, so she's having us make a list of the crap he's bought for himself, then we'll compare it to what he gets for us. So far, some things on the list we have are:

-$300 grill (we already have a grill, but it's hard to start sometimes)
-new blender (we have a hand blender but he doesn't like it, and the one with a stand broke and he THREW IT AWAY BEFORE SEEING IF IT COULD BE FIXED)
-tons of movies that we'll watch once...if that
-he wants to buy a new freezer, because prices will go up next year (we have a freezer that works perfectly fine). Freezer would also be several hundred dollars
-several wind chimes we really don't need

Plus, whenever he sees stuff on sale he buys a half dozen of it and says "these will make great gifts!" Half the time he doesn't give the stuff away. So we're making a list of that stuff too. Then we're going to attack him about it and may be he'll stop being cheap. Doubtful, though.
