That's pretty much my story. My NLSO said that she wasn't going to try and buy me a
set, because she didn't know what I had, needed, or wanted, and to be honest I could
probably get four or five for the same money in a few months anyhow. Rather, I
canvassed for the things I can't choose well for myself--mostly clothing items that I
don't wear often (like sweaters and plaid flannel shirts, both of which I have a
knack for getting "wrong"). Lego is left for me to handle, and that I definitely
do--but at 2/3 off or more. :)
best,
Lindsay
