Nope, just a thrifty shopper.  I've already bought the PR two stuffed animals and a pair of pajamas for Christmas.

And I remember walking through a major German department store in October, 1976, and seeing Christmas decorations up.  I remembered saying to myself, "And it's not even Thanksgiving!"  Then I remembered TG is basically an American thing.

Crutches.  :nerdy:
And, a battered Bburago model of a green 1961 Jaguar E-type. Will give my daughter that, for St Nic. Her dream is a Jag. Baby steps.

What kind? Does it hook up to a computer to look up and explain the codes?

It hooks up to the computer and also records all sorts of data, I have not thoroughly gone through it yet.  It was a relativity cheep one that I got mostly to figure out what is wrong with my fathers car and if it would be worth fixing.  At the moment it's unregistered and the check engine light is on so I can't get anything but a temporary registration.   It should give me an idea if it's just a sensor out or something more serious

I store my phone in my bosom buddy when necessary.  And while they don't bounce they do tingle if it's on vibrate.  I'm not sure where the PR will put her phone when necessary.

I was saddened to find that this phone does not offer The Dance of The Sugar Plum Fairies as a ringtone.  It always cheered me up when the phone rang.
